Skip it if you…
Saves you a refund- Players who need tutorials or explicit rules may stop at the first puzzle, where experimentation is the main way forward.

Our take on simian.interface++
The bounce point arrives at the opening puzzle: there are no instructions or explicit rules to explain what counts as progress. Players unwilling to infer patterns through trial and error will hit the wall before the procedurally generated mode becomes relevant.
What is simian.interface++?
An abstract puzzle game for a broad range of simian players.
It has minimal controls and provides no rules or directions. Solving puzzles involves spotting patterns, relying on intuition, and trying different methods. Its inspirations include tabletop puzzles, modern art, and experiments in cognitive psychology. The game includes the first simian. interface in a full-screen version, along with infinite_loop, a mode that creates levels procedurally and randomizes music and story content. Chiptune artist Note! composed the soundtrack.
