    A delicious puzzle-roguelike charms, but suffers from lack of save options.

    Blue Prince is a superb puzzler that joyfully challenges and deceives with every layer of its design and execution. You've not played anything quite like this before.

    And then there’s the fact that Blue Prince has the best titular homophone in video games (sorry Fortnite). It’s a game about the blueprints of the Mount Holly Estate, and naturally a magical mansion like this has a story; it’s this, the family behind it, and the fantastical wider world in which they live, that will draw you to the 46th room and far, far beyond.

    All told, for a game that wasn’t even on my radar until recently, Blue Prince is a truly wonderful surprise, serving as a new benchmark for both adventure games and roguelikes moving forward. It can be equal parts rewarding as it can be frustrating, depending on how you approach it and how the dice may roll. Yet, despite those frustrations, there’s still just so much to love about Blue Prince that I can’t ever stay mad at it.

    Like its sprawling mansion, Blue Prince is loaded with secrets, beautifully organic puzzles and hidden emotional depth, making each run a mysterious treat.

    Blue Prince's ever-shifting halls and rich web of enticing mysteries easily secure its place as an all-time puzzle great.

    Blue Prince is quite an interesting game that brings innovations to a stagnant genre, but at the same time suffers from a whole set of shortcomings.
