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.
