Our take on A Game of Changes
The game makes progression part of its puzzle structure. Instead of following a preset sequence, each completed level leads to a hexagram choice that determines the next stage, while the full set of 64 levels forms a larger puzzle.
What is A Game of Changes?
A Game of Changes is a 3D puzzle platformer built around 64 worlds influenced by the I Ching, or Book of Changes.
Players guide Confucius with a keyboard or gamepad. Each stage involves opening and reaching a door by learning how its symbols and tile elements behave, then rearranging them. Before leaving, players choose the hexagram for the next stage, making progression branch rather than follow one preset route. The overall objective is to experience and finish every one of the 64 stages. Together, these stages form a single larger puzzle in which player choices determine the path and no fixed sequence or sole solution is specified.
