Editor's Notes & Price Research

Written by
  • You don't remember who you are, and you don't remember how you got here, but there's one thing you can do: explore the island in hope of discovering clues, regaining your memory, and somehow finding your way home.
  • The Witness respects you as an intelligent player and it treats your time as precious. There are over 500 puzzles but no filler; each of the puzzles brings its own new idea into the mix. So, this is a game full of ideas.

Have you actually played both games? It is so not a Myst clone.

The Witness is an amazing puzzle game with a single category of puzzles that's introduced in a variety of ways.

Myst is an old-school, point-and-click adventure game that has puzzle elements, but is not, at its core. a puzzle game.

Both games' worlds are both mysterious and gorgeous, and their puzzles are quite difficult to beat, but the similarities stop there.
This was hands down one of the best adventure puzzle games I've ever played. It's very rewarding.
They're giving away so many awesome games.

Transistor is coming up!

Cool deal, this.

Clearly a Myst clone but hopefully a decent one.

One of my all-time favorites. A must-play for the low price of free.

Already own and finished it twice on Xbox One. I'll still grab this for free to have on PC it's that good. I loved Braid and eagerly awaited his follow up and wasn't disappointed. This is a no brainer for free.

Anybody have any luck getting this yet? I've been trying all night on multiple browsers, and on mobile and desktop PC; it never competes the "purchase". I get to a screen that says, "loading your order" and that is as far as it ever goes.

The website didn't work for me. I had to get it through the actual app.

I had this problem too but disabling uBlock let me though.

One of my favorite games of all time, will definitely spread the word to friends and family to get them to try it.
