Towers of Hanoi, actually.
with an idea this revolutionary and blockbuster i think this games studio should be at LEAST quintuple-A
dreams of the things you would have to do to win enough As to advance to B in the grand scheme of things...... but doesnt the number of As just describe their budget?
one day we'll hit the point where the As in your Game Studio Type becomes the primary currency in the desert wasteland. selling a AA dev in exchange for another couple days worth of gas
the Tower of Hanoi puzzle in Mass Effect 1 will never leave my mind for as long as I live, so intense was my desire to do literally anything else
The fact that it showed up in a fucking MMO raid was just Peak That Era Of BioWare
It really demolished all of my emotional momentum, like it’s a pretty important mission!
modern big-budget game design philosophy is fundamentally antithetical to good puzzle writing
