    I loved the first game.

    It had this...ethereal(?) feeling to it. And it really made me want to explore and try to break things. Funny enough, whenever I managed to break something, the developers had already anticipated it and made it a trophy or Easter egg.

    I loved the difficulty ramp too from what I remember, though I think I would have liked some even harder puzzles because I'm a complete masochist when it comes to puzzle games. I am happy to spend 3 months intermittently going back to a puzzle and I will never ever look up a solution to anything.

    I didn't even know this was coming out so this is like finding $20 in my pocket.

      Then you should definitely play the DLC for it (Road to Gehenna), if you haven't. I've heard the difficulty ramps up significantly from the main game. I had enough trouble with some of the later levels for TP1 that I've never gotten around to the DLC, but I think I'll have to before diving in to the sequel.

        The DLC follows directly after the conclusion of the base game, so, difficulty-wise, the main puzzles in Road to Gehenna stay roughly in line with those later levels.

        The secret stars and bonus levels are another matter entirely.

    Do we know if TP2 will eventually come to VR as well? I'm holding out but maybe I shouldn't.

    Wowzers those are good reviews. I played the demo and had NO interest in the story it was trying to tell. I did love the first game and the consistent pacing of the puzzles so this may be a sticking point for me. Im still interested but theres so much to play right now that it might be a while before i get to it.
