hempuli made a colleciton of solitaire games, I can't wait to feel stupid as fuck playing them
hempuli makes really incredible puzzles that by and large do NOT jive with how my brain works; I scrubbed out of Baba in like world 2 or 3, I just do not understand that game at all
But I'm a sicko for solitaire games and with how many variants are in there I figure there'll be something that can challenge me while also not infuriating me
I played a round of lock solitaire and then one of hanoi solitaire before my food was cooked and I liked them! That bodes well!
Hanoi solitaire definitely too easy for me to play consistently but was fun to get a grasp of
Now that I know the trick I don't know how engaging it would be, y'know?
Something I really like about the collection itself is the way you get little explanations of mechanics and where the idea came from, plus if you could play it with a real deck or not
@coriander balatro is a cool game
@coriander i wonder how your brain would respond to Bean and Nothingness
@wallhackio what's that
@coriander a savagely difficult puzzle game that's $12 dollars on steam and it ruined my life
@coriander it's really good tho
@wallhackio I'm already banging my head against RHEM but I'll have to keep this in mind for the future
@coriander some of the puzzles made me leap out of my chair when I solved them there is some absolute brilliance here
@wallhackio Also I just realized you might not be familiar with RHEM:
Imagine Myst
But it's for sickos
@coriander but myst is already for sickos
@coriander oh I just looked it up its literally just Myst
@wallhackio but the puzzles are for sickos
@coriander i do have sicko tendencies....
@wallhackio @coriander ftr, the kind of sickos bean and nothingness puzzles are fur are the kind of sicko would would become known in their undergraduate physics purrogram fur really loving knowing how to derive all the physics equations. it’s just purresenting those kinds of purroblems at a sufficent level of abstraction from mathematics and logic that you might not notice that’s what you’re doing
arguably this is true of a large number of puzzle games, really, but
