My favorite thing a single-player game can do is make me feel like I’m not alone. It makes me feel like I’m in a community — where others care about me — and we make each others’ lives better. This is the opposite of what I expected from The Talos Principle 2, and I don’t think I’ll be able to stop thinking about how it makes me feel more connected to humanity as a whole.

I just finished this thirty-hour puzzle game that blew-away any expectation I could have had for it.

I could have had my opinion colored on this as a part of the publishing team, yet my heart is clear on this: the Talos Principle 2 is a grand achievement for game design, full stop.
