You point, you click, you solve puzzle after puzzle to progress. You spend a solid 15 minutes staring at a stumper of a problem that requires you to do third-grade maths, you give up and Google it.

I had a bunch of weights\u2014four of which bore symbols corresponding to digits on the lock\u2014and had to figure out the mass of each. The first couple were easy: just stick &#8217;em on the plate and muck around with the balance until you get everything perfectly level.<\/p>\n<p>The last two required you to add <em>other<\/em> weights and then do exceedingly simple calculations to figure out how much your marked weights, uh, weighed once you&#8217;d sorted out a balance. Unfortunately for The Rewinder, I&#8217;m a moron (I sure didn&#8217;t become a writer because I had a mind for maths), so I just looked it up.<\/p>\n<p>All this to say that the puzzles don&#8217;t feel like makework, at least not to my addled brain. They make actual demands of you, which is refreshing in a world of game design where puzzles have started to feel like momentary distractions the devs throw in to break up long stretches of hitting guys with an axe.<\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\"><\/p>\n<figure class=\"van-image-figure inline-layout\" data-bordeaux-image-check >\n<div class='image-full-width-wrapper'>\n<div class='image-widthsetter' style=\"max-width:2560px;\">\n<p class=\"vanilla-image-block\" style=\"padding-top:56.25%;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"2Apk9WMV6xUBmB26qWZe9g\" name=\"20241203134217_1\" alt=\"An exasperated lumberjack shouts \"That chicken took my keys!\" at a chicken on his roof.\" src=\"https:\/\/arcader.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/the-rewinder-is-a-bit-like-that-time-travelling-dishonored-level-turned-into-a-point-and-click-puzzler-and-ill-never-finish-it-because-i-cant-do-maths-2.jpg\" mos=\"\" align=\"middle\" fullscreen=\"1\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1440\" attribution=\"\" endorsement=\"\" class=\"expandable\"><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption itemprop=\"caption description\" class=\" inline-layout\"><span class=\"credit\" itemprop=\"copyrightHolder\">(Image credit: Gamera Games)<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><\/a><\/p>\n<p>But the real meat is in the rewinding. Hence, the name. Your spiritual superpower is that you can delve back into past events as a ghost and subtly change things, gathering up &#8220;senses&#8221;\u2014the smell of a fresh-cooked meal, anxiety about some rickety construction, that kind of thing\u2014and plant them in people&#8217;s minds to affect their decision-making. When a monstrous ghost trapped me, I could head back to the moment her husband made the fatal decision to leave her home alone\u2014prey for the village monsters\u2014and nudge his thinking into taking her along instead, which had dramatic ripple effects on the future. Think the Crack In The Slab mission from Dishonored 2, but 2D and with less stabbing.<\/p>\n<p>No less pretty, though. Say what you will about pixel art, The Rewinder makes it sing, and puts its best foot forward too. The game opens with an almost swaggering display of scenes from Chinese mythology rendered in absolutely gorgeous splashes of colour, and it never really lets up.<\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\"><\/p>\n<figure class=\"van-image-figure inline-layout\" data-bordeaux-image-check >\n<div class='image-full-width-wrapper'>\n<div class='image-widthsetter' style=\"max-width:2560px;\">\n<p class=\"vanilla-image-block\" style=\"padding-top:56.25%;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"2nDnbKzS8kWo2JeCGgby9g\" name=\"20241203134528_1\" alt=\"The game goes hazy as text appears on the screen, reading \"Timeline altered.\"\" src=\"https:\/\/arcader.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/the-rewinder-is-a-bit-like-that-time-travelling-dishonored-level-turned-into-a-point-and-click-puzzler-and-ill-never-finish-it-because-i-cant-do-maths-3.jpg\" mos=\"\" align=\"middle\" fullscreen=\"1\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1440\" attribution=\"\" endorsement=\"\" class=\"expandable\"><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption itemprop=\"caption description\" class=\" inline-layout\"><span class=\"credit\" itemprop=\"copyrightHolder\">(Image credit: Gamera Games)<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><\/a><\/p>\n<p>All the ghosts and ghouls you run into feel well-designed and creepy\u2014though I admit they might just be quite straightforward representations of creatures from Chinese myth I don&#8217;t know about.

I&#8217;ve taken a look at quite a few obscure\u2014or relatively obscure\u2014games recently, and I think The Rewinder is my favourite of the lot so far.
