The Witness launches onto iOS

This was an excellent game on the PS4. I’m sure it’s just as good here. Enjoy the details below.

Jonathan Blow’s critically-acclaimed puzzle game The Witness is now available for iOS devices. Upon initial release in early 2016, critics hailed The Witness as “ruthless fun for puzzle-lovers” (TIME) and “a masterclass of puzzle design” (ArsTechnica). This ambitious iOS version includes everything from the console and PC releases, including all of the deep mysteries of the fully explorable island in The Witness.

The Witness on iOS introduces new new touch controls where players will switch between swiping and tapping, along with tracing to solve puzzles, to maneuver around the mysterious, open-world island. The game also takes advantage of Apple’s Metal technology, which allowed the team at Thekla to render the massive, cross-island draw distances in first person, a challenging feat even while designing on PC.

The Witness for iOS includes:

40-80 hours of gameplay
A free-roaming, completely open-world island to explore
Hundreds of puzzles to solve
Beautiful graphics optimized with Metal
