There's a logic behind each puzzle and an acceptable answer to discover. You can pace the carpet safely without the solution making you feel like you've wasted your time. When it hits you, it's clear as day and there's always a pattern to find, no need to undergo a process of elimination or having to guess your way through obscure symbols. I wish all puzzle games could be like this. You should be off at the store buying this game already.
Exile is great fun and the long awaited fix for puzzle masters the world over.
Fortunately we have two companies capable of making these games, Cyan and Presto Studios, so hopefully the wait won't be long, and in the meantime, I hope that as many game designers out there also pick the game up, as for me Exile supplies the perfect blue example of what a puzzle adventure should be like.
