This is like a CS 100 Intro to Game Dev final project. Just read BlueRaja's review for everything you need to know.

This game feels unfinished and poorly designed.
• Like many bad Unreal Engine games, if you own a VR headset, the game will launch into VR mode and then crash. To work around this, you need to launch with the "-nohmd" option.
• There are almost no sound effects, so you spend the entire time listening to the (mediocre) music in otherwise silence.
• The starting puzzles are akin to those "match the shape with the correct hole" toys that toddlers play with.
• I have no idea what the later puzzles are like, because I couldn't get to them. You're expected to find the cubes you need to complete the puzzle, but the game hides them and gives absolutely no contextual clues as to where they are. After spending 15 minutes running around the same pasture 3 times looking for one of the cubes, I gave up.
• The game has forced-on motion blur, with no way to disable it.
• There's no way to change the mouse sensitivity, or in fact any of the controls.
Overall, I don't think I'd recommend this for any price. Avoid.
Ok, bought the game shortly after release for 29.90€ even though it's quite pricey. And I'm sad to say that I cannot recommend this title without a significant reduction of the selling price.
The main reason for that is that it is way too short for that price. I finished the game by solving what appears to be all puzzles in about 6.5 hours. At least the game told me that I had finished it, there was no real prior indication that entering that final door would be my last action in the game.
Which brings me to my next negative. The game has no story whatsoever. You're basically just stranded on an island and follow the linear path of puzzles which, at times, can be tedious because you're left without any real indication as to how to solve these puzzles. Having said that, there are great games (at a lower price) out there that have the same basic approach, first and foremost The Witness (go and play that if you haven't yet!). But these titles try and drag you in with a backstory or some final goal that you have to achieve. There is no such special interest in this game. Once you solved a puzzle, you pass on to the next one.
Now, all of that isn't to say that the game is really bad. As a logical puzzle experience it does quite ok. Trying to figure out what to do can be rewarding at times and the basic puzzle ideas are actually quite ok most of the times. But unfortunately the puzzleing experience is often impeded by the tedious puzzle mechanics. I seems that this title has been developed with a VR extension in mind. At least the VR software is triggered when I start the game even though the store page doesn't mention VR.
Anyhow, most of the puzzles require you to carry around cubes or other items and place them in a particualr fashion. Which brings me to the physics elements of the puzzles which are not really my cup of tea. I do think that the physics make the puzzles harder to solve than necessary, or at least they take away from the fun of solving the puzzles because it can be a pain in the ass to get items where you want them to be.
So, in short do NOT buy this game unless
- you like physics-based logical puzzles so much that you are willing to spend any amount of cash, or
- the price has been reduced significantly (I'd say up to 10€ is fair).
