Palindrome Syndrome: Escape Room

This is a very short but nice puzzle game with a dark story. Puzzles are all based on logic, simple math, and spatial arrangement. Experienced puzzle gamers would find it easy and could probably complete it in an hour or two.

(Forget the "escape room" marketing tack. This is not an escape room game. There are no environmental puzzles.)

You move around in first-person, and the game does support controllers for relaxing living-room play, but that's a bit of a gimmick: the puzzles are all essentially 2D.

As short as it was, I enjoyed the puzzles and the story. Just make sure you know what you are getting here!
