    I keep coming back, over and over, for at least 6 years with this game. I have bought copies for every platform I have. This game challenges you to come back over and over, earning all the achievements or finding all the easter eggs (ping). Well worth the minutes, hours, years, and lifetimes you can spend playing. Though, the occasional update to help clarify the - - - to +++ sliders would be nice.

    Version 1.6.9

    performance_and_bugs

    Truly an amazing game! So many different combinations to choose from, it ensures every playthrough is unique. The game has a fair share of trail and error, but it's fun discovering the combinations and what does and doesn't work well. My biggest gripe is the sequel system, I'd prefer to be able to put my games into 'series' and have spinoffs that aren't necessarily sequels (and have them grouped as a series on my game overview). The game timeline menu could use an overhaul regardless.

    Phenomenal game right here. It starts off with a good tutorial that's isn't overbearing and effective. I've been playing this game on and off for years now and I only get tired of it when I spend weeks playing it non stop. Sometimes it's infuriating, while other times it's deeply satisfying; both in the best of ways! It's takes time to master and I appreciate that. You can always look up the combinations on the interweb if it prices to difficult. Amazing game from amazing developers.
