Description

You wake up, alone, on a strange island full of puzzles that will challenge and surprise you.

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 is a single-player game in an open world with dozens of locations to explore and over 500 puzzles. This game respects you as an intelligent player and it treats your time as precious. There's no filler; each of those puzzles brings its own new idea into the mix. So, this is a game full of ideas.

Challenging and long lasting

Great game, thoughtful and challenging. For quite a few puzzles I had to take screenshots to annotate later. Works very well on an iPhone 6s. Also it think it uses iCloud, since my save appeared on my iPad (although it took some time to appear there).

Overrated

Some puzzles are clever, some are plain braindead (like you have to remember what is behind you off screen). Touch screen controls are difficult, you end up running in small circles and trying to look at the puzzle.

Controls and display brightness?

I’d say moving definitely needs onscreen d-pad or joystick instead of tap to move. Or why not aswell support iPad’s smart keyboard and add movement to that aswell? Also the game forces screen brightness to 50% itself which is very annoying.
