The difficulty is really overplayed IMO. There’s a lot of permanent progression for solving puzzles, so as you get to the harder puzzles you also have a much easier time with the roguelike portion. There’s also a ton of stuff to figure out, so you’re very rarely only working on one thing.

Side note, 90% of the people I have seen saying this are redditors and it’s really exposed me to how bad some of the Gamer types are at videogames
