I like applying the idea of "being brought back to your childhood" to this game because nothing comes close to the pure infantile state you revert to while playing this, the most basic sentences becoming indecipherable. a perfect game but I can't get over the dry tongue it gives me from its unique sense of losing touch with reality
A brilliant, mind-bending concept, but I just don't get enough satisfaction out of solving the puzzles for it to feel worth the work. I need something to latch onto other than the intrinsic motivation of puzzle solving. A story, some humor, pretty visuals, anything. This is just too minimal of a puzzle game for my taste.
I got through a good chunk of this. Puzzle games are great and Baba is top tier - there are some insane head scratchers in here. I'm not clever enough for the later worlds and got stalled out. Very good practice for a hobbyist programmer like me though - it helps with logic related to if/thens, loops, and the like, even if it's not obvious at first. Really enjoyed it and the practice but not-practice.
Ever wanted to lose your mind in real-time?
Portal may be the perfect entry to puzzle games but this is the peak. The single most complex and incredible puzzler ever made. play this game to blow your mind on every single level.
it will also make you babble nonsense at your screen so do not play in public.

Baba Is You works to offer a unique shift on the puzzle game genre. With the concept of allowing the player to physically manipulate the game rules, while within certain confineds, acting as an extremely interesting and enjoyable idea. Personally however, I have issue with the extreme difficulty curves present within Baba's progression. At certain parts within my playthrough, I found the puzzles being soo unbelievably complex, that I could easily would spend an hour on each simple trying to even slightly understand what exactly I was looking at. A problem that is of course down to my individual abilitys, but still something that to an extent made the latter half of my playthrough a slog. Overall however, Baba Is You is a fantastic puzzle game, with great polish, art, and game mechanics; and while being quite difficult, I would still definitely recommend it to anyone interested in the puzzle genre.
