It’s an incredible hook and one which I’ve never seen in apuzzle gamebefore.

It’s compact, brilliant, and one of the best puzzle games of 2023.

But here’s the fun part.

To get to each teleporter you’ll need some help from your magical photographs.

The rules of puzzles change over time.

Is it strange to say that Viewfinder makes me feel like a magician?

When you fully realise the power you wield, you start to look at the world differently.

Its a subtle but impactful realisation.

Thats just one of Viewfinders trippy ideas, but they evolve in so many other directions.

Took a snapshot of a maze?

Place it into the world and you might move through it and find a hidden prize at its core.

Each photo is its own space for you to explore, like a gateway to another world.

Its all very calming and peaceful - even the menu music is lovely.

Viewfinder is a puzzle game like no other.
