    If you like games like Myst and the more recent newcomer Obduction you are going to love Quern – Undying Thoughts on Xbox One. With the amount of content included it is great value for money, and whilst the puzzles can seem pretty hard everything you need is around you; trial, error and patience is rewarded.

    Quern - Undying Thoughts is a First-Person Puzzle Adventure Game game. This game made me feel like I was playing Myst or Riven. Even theQuern - Undying Thoughts is a First-Person Puzzle Adventure Game game. This game made me feel like I was playing Myst or Riven. Even the aesthetics have the feel of those all-time classics. Quern drops you onto an unknown Island. Your only escape is through what feels like countless locked doors and puzzles. Notes are left everywhere around the island, some lend way to the story, some hand out clues to the puzzles ahead. These puzzles are about as diverse as it can get utilizing math, symbols, alchemy, and sound. These puzzles are seamlessly interwoven into the world. They also differ in difficulty from blatantly obvious to nearly beat your head on the wall obtuse. The graphics are incredible, lending even more depth to the already immersive setting. The soundtrack is dynamic, shifting from area to area lending even more feel to the game. Quern was like a nostalgic journey for me just as much as a fresh adventure, loaded with both ingenious puzzles and homages to other puzzles that have taken gamers asunder. More than 12 hours later the escape came into view. Quern is a heavy thinker, and you should pay close attention to everything in the environment, as some of the answers will be staring you down. Fans of Myst will feel right at home, and any puzzle fans will be surrounded by fun!… Expand
