The Witness makes me question why I play hard games

I know this is a review and everything, but I really have no idea if I liked The Witness. Hopefully, I’ll figure that part out by the time I get to the end and have to assign my almighty score.

The Witness is a first-person puzzle game for PlayStation 4 and PC (I played the PS4 version) where you wander around an island and solve a bunch of mazes. It starts off simple, and then it quickly gets not-so-simple. I spent a lot of time with it. I solved hundreds of mazes. I beat the game … I think. I don’t know how much fun I actually had, though.
