What’s New Version 1.98

We have fixed a rare crash during startup.

Description

You wake up, alone, on a strange island full of puzzles that will challenge and surprise you. You don't remember who you are, and you don't remember how you got here, but there's one thing you can do: explore the island in hope of discovering clues, regaining your memory, and somehow finding your way home. The Witness is a single-player game in an open world with dozens of locations to explore and over 500 puzzles. This game respects you as an intelligent player and it treats your time as precious. There's no filler; each of those puzzles brings its own new idea into the mix. So, this is a game full of ideas.

Great game, so-so port
Loved this game on PC, still pretty good for iPad, but locked at 30 fps, low graphics settings, no keyboard support. The newer ipad pros could definitely handle higher settings - the low frame rate is consistently bothersome

Give This Game a Chance!
At first, I didn’t really like the game — the puzzles felt repetitive, and it didn’t seem like my type of puzzle or escape game. But give it a chance. After spending some time in the world, it really grows on you. The puzzles become more interesting, and as you explore more, you start to understand why it’s so popular. Give it a shot, it’s worth it!

The game is the cerebral feast you’d expect from Thekla. How they pull off such scope is beyond me. A warning though, if you easily get motion sickness (e.g. can’t read in a car), the presentation is quite punishing.

I loved this game on PC. So I got it again
I wanted to play the witness on the go just because I love this game and its puzzles. I had almost gotten 100% completion on PC though due to a bug could not get the last required solve. Despite this, I was aware I had completed all of them (including IT) This version was great actually! Up until I had to face my mortal enemy and the movement mechanics slowed me down a lot more than what I’d consider reasonable for such a task. Despite this I’d say all of the games graphics and content have been replicated to a T here! I hope to solve that blasted thing again considering I have a lot more ex

sucks. boring.
you run around and solve the same puzzle repeatedly. no interacting with objects otherwise. you literally just walk to areas, solve a variation of the same puzzle on different panels and that’s it. i do not understand how anyone can like this and the price is absurd. i feel completely ripped off.

Challenging to say the least
Got through what I thought was a large portion of the game on my own, but had to begin looking at tutorials to get through the later puzzles. And when I thought I had most of them done, found out there’s a lot of extra hidden things too

Awesome
I’m late to comment on this as it’s been out for a while before I got it, but yea. It’s VERY cool. Slow to get started while you figure stuff out, but once you do, solving the puzzles becomes much more rewarding. This game reminds me a lot of the Talos Principal in its gameplay and the sort of anonymous character which you only see as a shadow. But if you dig immersive games that serve as a nice distraction from the real world for a couple hours at a time, you’ll love this one. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Mesmerizing and addictive
It took a little bit to digest this, and get the swing but once I did, man was I hooked! The puzzles do seem simple at first, but you quickly realize there is so much more to them. The way you actually build skills making replayability such a unique aspect (cause you don’t need to do the menial stuff again) is incredible. Mega kudos to the team that clearly put their souls in to this.

Truly boring
The most expensive and the most boring game of its kind I have ever had the misfortune to play. Is there a refund policy? Why is every puzzle the same stupid idea. Why are the graphics so terrible? Why is movement so slow and awkward? Why is this so popular? Why am I playing this boring game I can’t wait to put down? These are the questions crossing through my mind as I close it once again not because I’m stuck but rather that I can’t be bothered to play it anymore

Go to u-tube and watch how the pro’s play this game at light speed, this one guy does it all ( over 600 puzzles) in less than 2 and 1/2 hours. My jaw hit the ground, I got dizzy just watching Him. I LOVE this game. It is by far one of the best EVER MADE! Great work people. P.S. The pro’s play it on their pc’s.

AMAZING
Coming from someone who has never played a puzzle game before, I wasn’t expecting to much out of this game considering I just wanted something to pass the time with. But boy was I wrong, the simplicity of the way the puzzles work mixed with the beautiful graphics come together to make an absolutely amazing adventure. Don’t feel bad about using a cheat site because the fun in the game comes from watching the stages unravel themselves. Absolutely loved being taken on the journey that The Witness holds and would recommend it to ANYONE

Won’t Open!!! Please help!!
I bought this game almost a year ago and love that I have always been able to turn my attention back to it; other games simply lose their must... however, why have I not even been able to open the game lately? The intro screen appears with the “loading” symbols, yet just as the game is about to launch, the app quits. I relished the fact that I could justify spending the money on something that has lasted longer and kept me more entertained than ex boyfriends, but please don’t take away something that makes me happy. I don’t want to remember it in hindsight like what’s his name.

Wonderful
The game is huge, the graphics beautiful, the gameplay very challenging. Though the puzzles are all based on a draw a line through a grid model, it keeps throwing new twists of logic at you. Honestly I used a cheat site for more of them than I care to admit. The game is HARD in places. But the line puzzles are just pieces of larger puzzles for each area. These in turn all are pieces of the huge puzzle that is the game. However throughout the game are surprises, tape players with musings that may or may not be relevant. There are areas that are fun to explore even though they are not part of th

C'MON MR. BLOW FIX THE BRIGHTNESS!
As of Version 1.8, this game still continues to hijack the iPad's brightness control, automatically raising that level to 50% upon opening. I am entirely capable of choosing an appropriate brightness and volume setting based on my viewing environment and don't need an app developer to make those decisions for me. At 50%, it is far too bright. Again, it is extremely annoying to have to readjust every time I open or switch back to the game. It is ruining the experience of an otherwise stellar game. From five stars to one until this is fixed.
