‘The Witness’ Gets a Trailer + Release Date!

From the creator of Braid comes this puzzle game set to release on both the Playstation 4 and PC. After watching the trailer, I couldn’t help but see some similarities to Myst. See for yourself:

Perhaps the most interesting tidbit comes from creator Jonathan Blow:

When we started making this game, I figured it would have between 8 and 12 hours of playtime. As it happens, the game we’ve finally built is around 10 times as big as that: if you are a completionist who wants to wring every last drop out of the game, you might expect to play for 80 hours, or possibly 100.
