Loved it up to area 2 stage 11.
I got stuck (which probably isn't the game's fault, my brain is pretty slow) so I turned on the hints and
it just showed 2 arrows pointing towards the most obvious move at the start.
Nothing else.
I was already doing what the arrows told me to way before i found out the menu had hints.
I want to say the dev is severely underestimating us but they also didn't show any hints on the actual puzzle, so i have no idea what they could possibly mean (other than to mock us but I'm sure they're not that kind of person).
