  Apparently the creator of The Witness didn’t like it because he’s allegedly a pretentious twat.

    Doesn’t surprise me that he didn’t like it. It lampshades how the themes of the original game are not actually as profound as he says they are, while also being way more fun than the majority of the original

  I just love the review of it that states, “if you like The Witness, you’ll like The Looker, but if you hated The Witness, you’ll love The Looker.”

  The ending had me rolling. I didn’t realize what was going on until just right before the reveal. Great game to check out because you can beat it in a couple hours

    Do you have to have played the witness to get the jokes, or does it stand alone?

      It would still be a fun little puzzler, but it’s very much a single-note satire, and a lot of it would come off as “lol random” rather than taking the piss out of The Witness. Which is also brilliant, love them both.

      I’ve never played it. So I’d say no. I still thought it was great.
