I don't think I've ever played a game so great at teaching you how to play it without ever actually telling you how to play it. And I will forever remember the mindblowing experience of realizing you can trace patterns in the environment itself. Yeah, the "true ending" is terrible and so is the inclusion of audio logs and videos (such a cheap way to reinforce the theme of the game without putting any actual work into it), but this is still a masterpiece in my eyes.
First playthrough I didn't even know about the audio logs and I definitely prefer the game without them. The videos are the same problem but the way you unlock them is fun, the reward just needed to be something else
Baba is You is hard. This is just obtuse. What's the fun in a puzzle game when your not sure what the rules or worse yet when you solve one but don't even know how you did it? And not that this influenced my score but inserting a clip from a Tarkovsky film is just about the most "take me seriously, take me seriously" moment I've ever seen in a game.
