The art is excellent. It's not that the graphics are incredibly detailed, but they do look very nice. The soundtrack is extremely good, probably the best game soundtrack I've heard. But what is amazing about these artistic elements is how they all combine to create a consistent atmosphere.

The gameplay is very good. The controls are the best out of any platformer I've played. The game teaches you a ton of moves through ability points. However, despite learning many moves, there are a very limited number of keys you need to press to activate them. Despite this, you do not confuse one move from another or struggle to activate a certain power. The controls are extremely fluid.

Definitely would recommend.

The Talos Principle is possibly the best puzzle game on Steam. It is atmospheric, innovative, and its narrative leaves you asking questions until the very end. The open-world design gives you a lot of room, allowing you to complete the puzzles in any order. If you get stuck on a puzzle, you can simply return to it later. The graphics are quite nice and the aesthetic fits the game well.

This game is most fun if you take it slow, exploring each level to find secrets and reading the entirety of the terminal entries.
