How long is the game?

[maxlawman]

Tossing up a number of different purchases at the moment (April is a heck of a month for puzzle games!), and am interested in roughly how long it takes to complete 'Lab Rat'. (Not that $/hr is the deciding factor, but it is relevant!)

Not sure. Curious as well.
We have been really spoiled for great puzzle games this month that is for sure.

Yeah, please tell us.

About the length of this one: I don't know about the time but it says it has over 100 puzzles and they get non-trivial fast, so I'd say it'll take a while.

I've solved 49 of 111 puzzles in a bit over 3 hours. The puzzles get harder, so the last half will presumably take me longer than the first half. It's not a *huge* game, but the presentation is top notch, with each segment of 3 or so puzzles introducing new themes, story, and characters.
I saw a comment from someone who 100% the game with 8 hours of play time.

Blue Prince came out last week and has ruined my free time since.

According to Steam, it took me 6 hours to complete all the puzzles (Which isn't necessary to finish the game).
But it's really worth it, the verity and the gimmicks are so many that I genuinely enjoyed the whole experience.

It took me just under 9 hours, but that includes breaks for chores, bathroom, dinner, etc. where I just left the game running.

The length is going to be highly dependent on how quickly you can grok the concept of each puzzle.

[Fazza]

Its taken me 17.5 hours (with perhaps 2-3 hours running idle) to do every level myself. All achievements (minus one I think *could* be a speedrunning thing).

It will very much depend on your own brain. I've played a fair amount of puzzle games over the years but I certainly wouldn't say I was wicked sharp at these things.

I guess a range of what, 8-30h ?

I really enjoyed it though.

Steam shows 7 hours for me, but I did a bit of idling in the game. The in-game timer says 5:50 hours spent solving

Are you a fan of puzzle games? Would you mind sharing some good ones released this year? I want to take a break from blue prince for a while

Finished 100% in 12 hours (including some idling).
