Basically my recommendation for the game comes down to your thoughts on puzzle games in general and Tetragon’s main mechanics. If you generally don’t like puzzle games or don’t like the idea of twisting and turning the game world, I don’t think the game will be for you. Fans of the genre that have at least a passing interest in Tetragon’s premise though should enjoy it and consider picking it up.
