Wanted to escape the Earth for a bit this morning, so I built a big tree. #nomanssky

FWIW I am absolutely convinced #BluePrince has not been solved entirely, and still has more to give us. This is a puzzle game of puzzle games: hitting a block just means we havenโ€™t learned everything about the game we are meant to. It tells us: slow down, look at things. Ponder them. Test things.

#BluePrince is absolutely amazing and just keeps going. What a beautiful game. The richness of the story telling and the complexity of the puzzles has moved me deeply. I am so grateful to the entire team of artists it took to assemble this massive, rainbow-hued, many-pathed prism of a piece of art.

Completely agree. Each time I think I have found the end of the story, I realize Iโ€™ve been looking at clues all along to a whole new layer.

Photo of my tv screen playing Blue Prince, which is paused on the end of day screen. A drawing of the house has been generated with many rooms and lots of decorative greenery. Below the drawing are the details from that daysโ€™s build. The text begins with Mt. Holly, the name of our manor house, followed by โ€˜Garden excavation site of the dead,โ€™ the descriptive title earned that day. Below those two headings is a section listing the achievements that contributed to the title: 6 green rooms for Garden, 18 excavated dig spots for excavation site, and 15 dead end rooms for Of The Dead. Below this section and the regular stats reported for each day. 
Those details are 
Total Rooms: 42
Rank Reached: 9
Steps Taken: 113
Items Found: 11
New Rooms: 1
At the very bottom is a red exit sign that is used to close the daily summary.

One thing (among many) I love about Blue Prince is that there is a different drawing and name every day based on what you build. Love the gardens. Details in Alt Texts #BluePrince ๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿซถ

First play through I started over after 30 days, second one I made it 45 days. So just under 100 total days. Iโ€™m happy with that!

Just finished; I absolutely totally completely wholeheartedly love this game. I already canโ€™t wait to play again. Found Room 46 on Day 21 of my third play thru (I started over when the math got too hard to do in my head ๐Ÿคฃ). Simply delighted. Loved seeing CYAN in the credits #BluePrince #Myst ๐Ÿ’™

Checking out Blue Prince on Game Pass and I can *highly* recommend this to any puzzle game people. Itโ€™s challenging and the changing nature keeps me coming back to discover more. Giving Myst, giving Macquette, giving 7th Guest. #BluePrice

I hadnโ€™t thought of it that way! A lot of the texture rendering on Xbox is true potato, but Iโ€™ll maybe use it for my better ones!

Random side note about screenshots: Iโ€™m on Xbox and mine never look at good as the ones shared by PC and PS players, so I dropped using the virtual photography tags. I just canโ€™t get them to look good, but I enjoy seeing all the others!

The autophage camp is near enough to my base that I was able to build a little shelter around the synthesis terminal. I cosplayed as a autophage for the photo.

The one base I always go back to, from a weekend event 3 years ago. Has all my basic resources and is near an autophage camp, a gravesite, a sentinel nest, ancient data structure, and even bones. May spend some time building it out this weekend and add a MUSEUM #NoMansSky

Gave it some deep thought and concluded this month isnโ€™t good for streaming an #Avowed playthrough- have some other higher priority projects going on. Enjoying playing around with fossils in #NoMansSky in the short term
