PlayingThe Witnessis an exercise in extremes.
That drive to continue on stems from the price the game puts on a players ability to learn.
The Witnessbegins with as cold an open as a game in recent memory has.
A desert lies to the west, right next to a healthy forest, which resides by a swampland.

Alternatively, it can also incite maddening fury when puzzle after puzzle feels like an obtuse enigma.
PlayingThe Witnesscan be maddening, and it can be exhilarating.
