Review title of Daphinora My favorite game of the decade

I have played this game almost a dozen times now. I see the puzzle pattern in my daily life--in the drips on my bathroom mirror, in the stains on my kitchen window, and in the loading screen for GTA V. The easy pattern of the starting circle to a finishing nub haunted me so much that I now have a tattoo of a simple filled-in circle-line. This game taught me patience. This game was the first xbox game I finished and collected all of the achievements for. This game was the first I ever replayed. After I “completed” the game the first time, I was reading articles online and realized I had missed the entire other half of the game: the environmental puzzles. Suddenly, the black obelisks made sense. I had to replay the game. Then I found out about the secret ending. I played again. Even two years later I still find myself coming back to this game. The Witness has truly changed how I see the world around me. I recommend this game for anyone who doesn't need to shoot things or jump.
