Walk the line



<span class="bold">The Witness</span>, an island full of mind-bending puzzles solved through keen observation and persistent exploration, is now available, DRM-free on GOG.com with a 10% launch discount.

Puzzles. The enigmatic island you've woken up in is dotted with panels full of puzzles. To solve them, all you need to do is draw a continuous line from an entry point to an exit point. Simple, isn't it? It isn't. As in every great mind-bender, there are rules to follow, visual clues to decipher, hidden paths to discover. Designed by Braid's creator Jonathan Blow, the vibrant, meticulously arranged island provides all the hints you need, while at the same time obfuscating its true nature from you. Approaching the puzzles with an open mind and exploring the environment in an open way are essential to overcoming the island's challenges, as you learn to speak its language and fall in love with its deceptive simplicity.



Walk a straight line towards an abundance of brilliant puzzles and become <span class="bold">The Witness</span>, DRM-free on GOG.com. The 10% launch discount will last until May 18, 12:59 PM UTC.

I actually bought it for that price on Steam.
Still haven't actually completed it due to hating it. >_<
I should stop buying games full price.
Cool, although too harshly priced for a genre I'm not fond of (even not taking into account the RPrice).

Still, cool to see this here, silly about the lateness though.

Well, to put it nicely, the asking price had me very surprised given the expected audience. I personally don't have a full price puzzle gimmick ambulation simulator itch to scratch, but I'm always happy for every new game that makes it on to GOG even if I'm not going to buy them.
My favorite WITNESS sans Harrison Ford and the Amish! Thanks be to GOG!

This has me puzzled - what expected audience, and why should they have smaller price?

Nope, I was just over the two hour limit.

Worth every cent. Puzzles cost money. (It being shiny and generally pleasant to look at is a bonus.)
It looks really pretty.
Certainly not my thing but everyone who enjoys it or wants it can now get it DRM free! Always good to see more games come to gog.

How are the puzzles? Are they traditional puzzles like Myst, environmental puzzles like MIND: Path to Thalamus, or abstract puzzles like Niko: Through the Dream? I suspect the smartarse answer will be "yes". ;)

And just saying, but for that price you could pretty much pick up , [url=https://www.gog.com/game/niko_through_the_dream]Niko: Through the Dream, and MIND: Path to Thalamus together.
There is a lot of game here. You could spend 70 hours on this sucker.
