[h3]We continue the regular process of improving the game thanks to the latest feedbacks[/h3]
The last patch consisted in improving the combat phases. This time we focused on the puzzles.
[u][b]Puzzles improvements[/b][/u]
Puzzle improvements means that the environment has been changed to accommodate more clues.
The puzzle has not become simpler, but rather less complex, the path feels "less volatile". Important clues appear better and more info has been added to avoid unnecessary frustration.
