really quite shocked at how well received this hint system is? the mini puzzles are designed to be incredibly simple, so you dont just get lost like in the main puzzle. it lays out very very simply the core mechanic of the puzzle. but, in this game, the core mechanics ARE the puzzles, because every puzzle in the game is designed around figuring out a very tight and smart concept. i found myself using hints...
