The Talos Principle
Elegant logic puzzles in sunlit ruins, wrapped in a thoughtful story about what it means to be human.
You wake up in a peaceful world of ancient ruins and solve one self-contained puzzle area after another, using tools such as signal jammers, light connectors and boxes to get past barriers and reach the prize at the end.
Between puzzles you find old computer terminals full of texts and conversations that slowly raise big questions about consciousness and freedom. You can engage with them as much or as little as you like.
What we like
- Clean, fair puzzle design
