The story of Lorelei and the Laser Eyes is a fantastic puzzle that is well worth the effort of solving.
There were some heavy hitters released this November: GMTK's big debut magnet game, the much anticipated Golden Idol sequel, Sudoku happening on 3D surfaces, sticky hedgehog puzzles, a Zachtronics-like logic programming game... the list goes on!
