omg a game without guns or any weapons got a 10/10 on ign.... did the world freeze over? cause the last I heard they hated seeing lots of water too

Didn't expect the perfect score! But it looks interesting enough to try out.

People complaining about 10/10

Its not for casual gamers. Its for people with a *brain*. People who like to think. You know, *intelligent* people who like things other than pew pew.

So are all the puzzles line based puzzles? and if so, it just seems like a really damn gorgeous ios puzzle game.
Edit: I just started playing the Witness and boy was I wrong, this game is amazing

[RobinGaming]

Man this just looks damn amazing. Can't wait to play it!

I’m here watching this video while downloading it from the Play at Home as a free game.

Simply put, amazing. The mind behind Braid has done it again. Thoughtful, intelligent, & damn challenging. I haven't completed it myself but I still can't stop playing.

Probably the best review I've ever read/watched on IGN, well done Chloi.

Sometimes the most entertaining experiences can be found in the most simplest games. No saving the universe from big baddies. No high stakes. Just a calm and relaxing game.

Early but who’s here for the March PS+ line up?

[StudyWithNika]

i guess this game was created for very intelligent people who can solve puzzles for 50-100 hours. I can not imagine how great and work is put here. It is without any doubt masterpiece.
IGN is completely correct here

woah...was not expecting a 10. Congrats to Johnathan and his team

This has got to be one of the greatest reviews you guys have EVER done. Also, for a puzzle game, it's great that got someone that could truly appreciate the difficulty and the subtle beauty of the game. If it was one of your more "simple minded" reviewers, they'd probably get frustrated and not appreciate it as much. Puzzle games aren't exactly my thing, but this great review makes me want to give it a try! Bravo!

This game really is a masterpiece, the creators are genius

[baldrthebrave]

Who's here because it's free on Epic Store ?

[Mrniceguy]

meh 4/10
- too much water
- too much snow
- too much tree
- the sky is blue

[Furedonia]

Scores don't matter anyway, it's her words about the game that truly matter. The details of her review are the stars, for all of you bitching about the 10/10.

[jarosgregory]

For those getting upset about the 10/10, you need to ask yourself, what would you do to make the game better? A game, no matter the genre, deserves a 10/10 if there is nothing you can add to it to make it better.

Choi, your reviews are borderline poetic

Funny how The Order 1886 was an action adventure game that took 7-10 hours to beat but The Witness is a puzzle game that takes up to 70 hours to beat.
