The mystery
You find yourself alone on an island with electronic puzzle panels everywhere. Not sure exactly what’s going on? Just go with it. Unravelling secrets is all part of the fun.

The beauty
Shimmering turquoise waters. Serene beaches. Vivid foliage. The world of The Witness is a paradise; except for the dark, foreboding uncertainty that surrounds the island that is!

The freedom
The Witness has no tutorial, map or onscreen prompts. Your only option is to learn as you go through the thoughtfully designed environments and challenges. If you get stuck, fear not. Just try another puzzle. The freedom to explore is all part of the experience.

The meaning
As you venture into the depths of the island, some of the puzzle panels you encounter might seem arbitrary. You’ll soon discover, however, that their placement and design are intentional, layered and often connected. See if you can uncover what lies beneath the surface.
