THE STUCK ZONE: The Mist (PC)

Must have “mist” how to actually get past the first level, eh, team?

Hey, Rab here, speaking to you from The Stuck Zone.

Now, as we all know, any games media people who get stuck at games are casuals and are no good at games and should all just die. But here I sit in The Stuck Zone anyway, stuck at the very first level of the new Steam game “The Mist”.

It’s a game where you manipulate text to — Haud oan, I’ll read it exactly as it is on the thing.

“"The Mist" is a text association decryption game. The game has 8 chapters, 40+ puzzles, which can be decrypted by associating with the text prompts of each level and combining with the current scene. “

Cheers pal, thanks for that. Clear as custard.

Now, when I say I’m stuck at the first level, I’m not being fair to myself. I’m actually stuck on chapter two of the first level. So give me a break. I’m getting there. I just don’t know what I’m supposed to do next with my wee ball. I touched my baw against a tree and its leaves fell off. And then when I sat down to play The Mist I got stuck.

My wee baw, floating in the abyss.

The game looks nice, though, and on the store page the sole developer says: “The game tells the story of my last year, but I won't tell you details. It was not easy. “

I feel that. Let’s get unstuck together.

The Mist is available on Steam now. I’m stuck.
