Gorogoa’s genius design makes you feel brilliant

On Twitter, Vlambeer developer and cofounder Rami Ismail praised indie puzzler Gorogoa: “[It] makes you feel clever for simply following along with its cleverness,” Ismail wrote. “It makes you feel joy for simply poking around. It makes you feel wonder for figuring out connection, and it tells a story through all of it.”

That bit about the game sharing its cleverness with the player is something that I felt, and it’s what makes the new release from developer Jason Roberts and publisher Annapurna Interactive so magical.
