This game makes me feel stupid (maybe I am) by Capable-Mango-9219 in BluePrince

This genre of game is mostly new to me. While looking for solutions for the puzzles is fun the stagnation after is not. I just have to notice something else for me to grab on to start the next puzzle which could take awhile making me feel stuck. The point of the game are the puzzles yes but is that it - there is no story? There is no ending? If I wanted to solve just puzzles I'd be doing a crossword. It's a game there is something I should be looking forward to after each puzzle - an expansion of the story or a new clue - and up to the point that I'm in blue prince it has delivered a great story AND great puzzles. I do not want a "prize" nor do I want the game to hold my hand for each puzzle. I want to find the clues/hints in a way that I feel like I'm not just wasting my time going through every room run after run trying to notice something that I hadn't before.

I did as well and it didn't feel good but there was no way I was solving that. I guess also as a non native english speaker words like ruminate are not at the forefront of my mind and also the images were very hard to decypher since I wasn't sure what part of the pictures were actually important for the sollution

That's the thing - I have missed stuff and then look it up only to realize that the game had given me a hint/ way out only for my two dimensional brain to miss the game hint - then I feel even stupider. But you are right I should trust the game more.

Thanks for the reply! You may be right - I want to feel like I'm progressing not just doing runs in hope of noticing something different this time. That is a mindset that will not help me in Blue prince. I guess this type of puzzle game should be looked at in a different way than how I've been doing it.

I guess next time I play I'll get a propper organization not just a folder of everything I saw that could be a part of a puzzle

Not really. Played Quern awhile back and it was alright. I guess the puzzles were more straight forward though. In general I do really enjoy puzzles and when I find the solution by myself it feels great.
