Are you done with The Witness? Then we have the following excellent puzzle game for you: The Talos Principle is now in the App Store.
The Talos Principle on iOS
As if we weren’t spoiled enough with the release of The Witness for iOS, another excellent puzzle game is out there: The Talos Principle. Both games started on PC / game consoles and have already garnered a lot of fans there. The fact that these titles can now also be played on your iPhone and iPad is nothing short of insane. However, The Talos Principle is in danger of disappearing in the shadow of The Witness, and that is unjustified.
1. Crazy puzzles
In the game you also have to solve puzzles, but in a completely different way. You move around in a 3d world where the puzzles in the environment have been processed. The goal in these puzzles is always to send colored laser beams to a certain point so that you can continue.
This simple concept is constantly being expanded with new elements, making it increasingly difficult. So The Talos Principle is not an easy game, but when you find out the solution, it gives an excellent feeling of victory every time.
2. Good story
What is also striking about The Talos Principle is how strong the story is. You play as an artificial intelligence who is welcomed into a garden by the voice of Elohim. By proving yourself, you may eventually come to his temple. Meanwhile, a computer program tries to get you off this path by making you think about what is real.
The Talos Principle is an intelligent game. Not only because of the puzzles, but also because of this philosophical slant and religious symbolism.
3. Complete game
The game has more than 120 puzzles that will keep you busy for at least fifteen hours. So it is really a complete game. The controls are not that smooth on a touchscreen, but it works.
You move by tapping the screen where you want to go. You look around by swiping. With two fingers on the screen you move in small pieces for the necessary precision. It is also possible to place a virtual gamepad on the screen. However, the game also supports physical controllers and that is recommended.
