Wander around mysterious ruins, use your intuition to solve puzzles, make music. It's great.
While visually striking, I ultimately found this game uncompelling. At times I'd be interested in what was coming next, but obtuse "puzzles" of recording specific environmental codes is just needless friction. I used a guide for these codes, since this element was far from additive to the experience, but then the grand finale expects you to recall exactly what selections you made when you thought you were just making cool music and freestyling. The buildup almost changed my opinion, but doubling down on entering codes sealed my conclusion as unnecessarily obstructive.
Incredible game, there's literally nothing else like this. It's a musical puzzle exploration game and it's wonderfully weird!
A nice glowing synth puzzle. Top notch soundtrack from Mogi Grumbles, too.
FRACT OSC is a trippy puzzle game that reminds me of the old-school puzzlers like Myst in the way it explains very little and focuses on your exploration. The environment and atmosphere is great and I enjoyed the soundtrack as well. It's definitely not for everyone, but I enjoyed it.
Fantastic game, love playing with sound to progress, and the environment is very engaging.
