I don't think I looked at the othe walkthroughs about this.

On reflection and as far as I remember - I seem to remember that I found it difficult to get the mouse to the correct positin left/right and then shoot.
It may have been that I hadn't 'learnt' that you only need to clear a path through the middle and not waste time clearing the 2 sides? And hence I would have had no trouble using the mouse.

Unfortunately due to the fact that there are only the ridiculously small number of save slots (6 in all) I can't now return to check this one way or another.
Cheers.

Walkthroughs were not out when I played and I did not find them necessary. I thought the in game clues were brilliant and easy to follow. I had no difficulties in playing at all. Maybe the walkthrough make the solves more difficult then they really are.

I found a lot of the puzzles very difficult - especially the arcade, platform and timed ones.

My 'echanical' aptitudes and eyesight are not what they used to be so I had troubles.

As far as i remember there was only one sliderpuzzle in M: and it was easy and had a clever twist to it. Nothing to be afraid of, take that from a sliderhater.

My take is the same as Ana's - brilliant in-game clues with clever and, yes, difficult puzzles. I think easy puzzles would have been a detraction from a wonderful game.

However, I did use my keyboard instead of the gamepad for one of the arcade games and it did make it much easier.


Gardens put to bed for the winter. Time for some gaming!
