    Game: When Ski Lifts Go Wrong

    Platform: Steam
    Released: Jan 24, 2019
    Installed: Dec 21, 2022

    When Ski Lifts Go Wrong is a 3Dish physics puzzler set in a ski resort.

    I like puzzle games, I like physics puzzlers, this should be a no-brainer, and for the most part it is.

    I don't like to complain about a game without being able to specifically explain my frustration, but in this case, there's something that feels very inconsistent and counter-intuitive about the controls.

    I find myself constantly having to stop and think about the controls, which takes me out of the zone that puzzle games normally put me in.

    With a more intuitive control system, When Ski Lifts Go Wrong could be so much more than:

    3: OK

    Game: The Eternal Cylinder

    Platform: Steam
    Release Date: Oct 14, 2022
    Library Date: Mar 14, 2023
    Unplayed: 135d (4m13d)
    Playtime: 22m

    The Eternal Cylinder is a weird game. It's a weird open-world-ish adventure-slash-survival-slash-puzzle game where you play as a little creature called a Trebhum, and you can consume stuff around you in the environment in order to evolve.

    Which you need to do, to try and stay ahead of the giant unavoidable titular "Eternal Cylinder", which literally crushes everything in it's path.

    Including you, if you can't get ahead of it, and to one of the towers dotted around the landscape that stop the cylinder. Temporarily.

    The alien landscape reminds me of the planets in No Man's Sky, but the weirdest thing on the planet's surface might be the Trebhum. These little spehroidal* creatures start out with two eyes and a snout, which which they consume (left mouse button) and expel (right mouse button) things they find around the environment.

    Some of these things help the little Trebhum evolve new abilities. Like suddenly growing legs with which to jump and run away from the giant, world-crushing cylinder.

    Fortunately the game autosaves a lot because, y'all gonna need it.

    All the while, the game is narrated by a friendly & gentle Englishman (who's actually a New Zealand actor, Peter Hadyen), guiding you through the things you need to do to survive.

    The only reason I stopped playing was because I had my late work shift and a co-worker waiting on me to make the actual phone calls due to my lack of actual voice, otherwise I would have continued playing.

    The Eternal Cylinder is crushingly:

    4: Good
