    What a mind bending game

    This game is astonishing with pretty much everything. I absolutely love this game and I'm really glad I got to play it. Thank you for making me dream.

    SUPERLIMINAL: Perspection & Perception

    SUPERLIMINAL (2019) is an interesting and original puzzle platformer game. It's somewhat of an escape room game as well. The puzzles are all interesting and make you think. The game does make you look at things differently and think outside the box. It encourages you to question reality.

    "Perception is reality. In this mind-bending first-person puzzler, you explore a surreal dream world and solve impossible puzzles using the ambiguity of depth and perspective."

    The game really makes you see reality differently. The concepts presented make you realize just how much of the world is based on our perception and everyone perceives the world differently as well. I appreciated the game premise.

      [last lines]

      Dr. Glenn Pierce: Hello! My name is Dr. Glenn Pierce, and by now you may have realized that all of this has happened exactly the way it was supposed to. You see, everyone who comes to the Institute does so because they feel that they are no longer in control of something important to them. But, more often than not, the problem is not that the problems we face can't be solved. The problem is that we become so afraid of failure that we refuse to see our problems from a new perspective. And so we do the same things again and again and again. And therein, of course, we find exactly the failure we were looking for. Your life will always be a struggle and you will always have problems. But today, you had the chance to see things differently. Even though it meant facing obstacles that seemed impossible at first, you thought outside the box - and you overcame them. Because you saw things from every angle, you understood them for what they really were. Because you kept moving forward, no matter how far off the path you were told you were headed, or how unexpected it became... you found your way. In a few minutes, you'll be back in the real world, and some part of you will say that none of this was real; so how could it have really meant anything? But, just like the power of perspective itself - it will have been as real as you believed it to be. All you've got to do is wake up.
