This game is really hard. In puzzle terms, that means its really well made. The special abilities gives depth to the game. It asks you to see the whole board and strategize, instead of brute forcing with what you can immediatly see. Very smart.

But I think my brain just isn't wired for word puzzles. Also english is not my first language, so there's that. I wish there were one or two easy puzzles as tutorials and to hook casual players in. But if not doing so is also part of the artistic intent of the game, then it should stand as it is. If it's too easy, puzzles can feel like banal work.
