Glad you got to check us out, thanks so much!

YouTube video by GamesWithMorgan CIPHER ZERO is like The Witness puzzle panels

In CIPHER ZERO you have to discover the rules and apply them to puzzle panels as they grow in complexity.

This game really reminded me of how you learn and solve the puzzle panels in The Witness.

Cipher Zero is a logic game where the initial simplicity masks a snowballing level of fiendish complexity. — The Geekly Grind Minimalist logic puzzler Cipher Zero teaches you its rules without any conventional instructions.

Minimalist logic game @cipherzerogame.com from Ben Cole Wu and @zapdot.com is fantastic! Simple on the surface but ultimately quite complex. 9/10

Thank you @thinkygames.com for helping me discover this gem!

Cipher Zero (@cipherzerogame.com) is a stunningly clever puzzle game, where you have to figure out the ever-growing number of rules entirely for yourself. It's also utterly beautiful.

A wide screenshot from CIPHER ZERO. A telescope sits in a barren area, a greyed out bicycle nearby it, as well as squared off ruins. The sky is littered with stars as a star trail runs along the left hand side. In the center of the sky is the Earth, the telescope pointed at it.

Against a wealth of advice to chase fads and virality, we set out to create a highly-polished experience that invisibly led a player through a challenging, solitary experience.

A yellow fire hydrant in the middle of a grey, rocky, barren area, with tiny star flower plants nearby it. A dark starry sky is seen in the back, the sides are littered with glowing thumbs up, and across the top center says "THANK YOU!"

A Cipher Zero Puzzler Review Or, The Tactile Satisfaction of Clicking on Squares

My review for #CipherZero is up! Just an excellent game that matches wits with truly brain burning puzzles but has the vibe of sipping coffee and sitting down to puzzle on a relaxing weekend morning.

This is great music design work! Dynamic, flexible, and intentionally designed to the player experience. And it sounds great! #gamemusic #gameaudio

Ian and Will did such a great job with this system. We set a high bar for what we wanted to achieve and I'm really proud of what came out of their work.

A screenshot from CIPHER ZERO done in minimal style, a varied color palette, and layered in textures. Inside a train, a booth's table is littered with random objects, such as a lava lamp, a camera with film next to it, an open CD players, an old school monitor with blue text. In the background, out the window, the background of a city and its pier can be seen.

"Were we overly-ambitious? For sure. [...] We wanted our soundtrack to be dynamic in a unique way... and I think we succeeded."

Join Ian in how he wove the sounds of CIPHER ZERO into its dynamic score.
