The game's story mode features a variety of challenging riddles that require creative thinking, but some players have experienced frustrating moments where they couldn't progress due to finicky answer acceptance. In addition to the main storyline, players can engage with categorized riddles and seasonal content, providing a diverse range of puzzle types to explore when they get stuck. Overall, the narrative is complemented by a rich assortment of puzzles, enhancing the gameplay experience.
“I love that outside the main story you have categorized riddles you can play too.”
“The main story puzzles are quite varied, and they make you think outside the box.”
“A big positive about this game is that there are a lot of different types of riddles, as you have the main story, then you have Riddle Road, which includes text riddles, math puzzles, and rebus riddles. If you get stuck on a level, you can take a break and change up the type of riddles you are doing.”
“That being said, I think some of the results get a little finicky, to the point that I could not progress the main storyline because it wouldn't accept any form of the answer, even when I resorted to looking up the answer.”
“Specifically, this was level 16 in the main story.”
“There's a few things you can go for in the game; you can go through the main story, which is a bunch of image-related puzzles, or do some other standalone text riddles, math puzzles, or rebus puzzles.”
