Indie/PlayStation 4/PS4 Review/Puzzle Game/Q.U.B.E: Director's Cut/Q.U.B.E./Reviews

Ever since Portal, I think it’s safe to say that the first-person puzzle genre has suffered. A lot of games have tried, often unsuccessfully, to do what Portal did, and that is to create a game that successfully combines strong puzzle elements with an interesting narrative.
