lorelei and the laser eyes is a wonderful and beautiful game with an enthralling narrative and incredibly satisfying puzzles. it has made me think deeply on the nature of art and its fair to say im a little haunted by it. there is also a piss meter

what it feels like to play lorelei and the laser eyes

Also, while it's still off-topic weekend, I'd like to make a recommendation to you all. If any of you like puzzle and/or mystery games, then I am getting on my hands and knees and begging you to play Lorelei and the Laser Eyes. It released like two months ago and it is amazing. It's my favourite game of the year and is rapidly becoming one of my favourite games of all time.

It's about a mysterious woman invited to an abandoned european hotel by an eccentric film director to help him with an unspecified project, which for some reason necessitates the hotel being turned into a maze of locked doors and puzzles. It's extremely open-ended, playing it feels like gradually unraveling a big tangled ball of yarn as you explore the hotel, gradually gaining access to more and more of it, and try to figure out just who the hell you are and what you're doing here.

There is a lot of reading and deciphering information for important clues in this game, which I think is something that might put some people off it, but if you like uncovering mysteries and connecting dots then this game is perfect for you. While I was playing this game it was literally all I could think about. I was seeing it in when I closed my eyes. I felt like that one image of Charlie Day with the conspiracy board.

Please please please play Lorelei and the Laser Eyes. It is so much. It has super cool spooky-but-not-quite-horror vibes. The music is fantastic. There is a gay old man, and tumblr is really into those nowadays. It haunts my dreams. It's about art, and mazes, and memories, and capitalism. It has a dog you can pet.

(cw for a little bit of flashing lights in this trailer. It's not much, but better safe than sorry)

Lorelei and the Laser Eyes really is one of them stories about how we can be devoured by our own art, about violence and patriarchy, about mirrors and people.

It's blood on the canvas. It's obsession. Talking about it at any length makes you sound like it's obsessive cast members.

It's good.

Lorelei and the Laser Eyes

Since this game seems to have slipped under the radar for the most part, I wanted to give it a shout out and recommend it to all lovers of puzzle games.

The basic premise is that you play as a woman invited to a secluded and almost completely uninhabited hotel somewhere in central europe. You're given almost no information to start out and it's up to you to piece together what is happening (and what already happened).

In the house there are puzzles. So many puzzles. Several people have compared the puzzle aspect to Professor Layton (which I have not played). They range from logic puzzles, to patterns, to spotting hidden elements in images, manipulating and mirroring, memory games, etc, etc.

It's not an action game; there are no enemies or combat. I also wouldn't call it horror so much as mystery, though it is a little creepy at times.

The visual aesthetic of it is quite striking, being in black and white with only splashes of red/violet in certain places. Also the soundtrack was fantastic.

It draws a lot of inspiration from things like surrealist cinema, horror games (think original resident evil without combat), and more. Several reviews have said it has Twin Peak vibes. And it has things to say about art and capitalism.

While there are some minor annoyances with the controls (no dedicated back button in menus is the big one), overall it played really well and I never got bored. It's also really fun to play with a second person (no online co-op or anything, just through streaming on discord or something) and work together on the puzzles.

So if you like puzzle games in creepy houses with slowly unfurling mysteries, it's definitely worth grabbing.
