Need a good puzzle? Don't fall into the trap of a first time impression: persist and use your brain, and this game becomes a clever gem!

Yes I must admit that this game may seem confusing at first, as it mimics a computer virus, but it is on purpose. An uninformed player will be worried by the warning message at the bottom of the screen, but you don't have to: it's part of the game. Then you have to get used to a quite "old school" interface/accessibility (that I personally liked), with the use of contextual menus (right click). And if you get over it, you start to fully enjoy the game. Solving it is quite difficult, because its central puzzle requires to find the right logic to hack the password. However, it is a true pleasure to figure it out. I built a paper cube and tried to unravel the mysteries of this matrix using the clues provided by the game.
And when you manage to find that password, and when the screen literally opens before your eyes, it is a real reward in itself. Magic!

I liked less the next stage, that flashes a lot and hurts the eyes, but it's not very complicated to go beyond it, to finally discover the end of the game. And the end is worth to see, it is quite a lot of fun! The game literally takes control over your itch.io account! (without any security risk, it's just a game).

A must to discover for the less lazy players!

Indeed, the start of the game may seem disconcerting to players who might mistake the viral simulation for real. Thank you for this motivating comment. The experience takes place in many different stages : sorry that you didn't like the optical part too much. Despite its apparent simplicity, it was difficult to create graphically to obtain a really effective visual deformation effect. As for the cube, I specify in the walkthrough that it is even possible to print the pattern directly, using the contextual menus at the start of the game. Thank you again for this comment which, I hope, will motivate players to try this game to the end ^_^
