Painful Puzzle Games - save twiks & quod (teddyras)
1The 1st game gets tossed in the pile of weird russian games where shit just kinda happens. I've mentioned this phenomenon before, but for some reason a lot of games form the region will just have random nonsense occur for a lot of reasons, but will seem like out of nowhere a lot of the time. I'm not sure this game is meant to be a puzzle game, but it felt like it at parts where I could not figure out what to do. Thankfully, the game doesn't last that long.
The other game seems cool at first, then suddenly the thing happens and it's just poor level design hitting you. Some of the puzzles in this one could be better designed to not be such a pain in the ass tbh, but overall they're alright. Had to spend a lot of time doing them, even restarted the playthrough after I thought I softlocked myself, but yeah, the previously mentioned bad level design. After I played it seems they patched it to make it easier to progress past the beginning part though.
