Doesn't work with Steam Controller, refuses to show the inventory. Other than that seems interesting enough.

Almost 10 years after release, the game is still infected with Denuvo which makes it clear the companies involved do not care about the players or even the game itself.
Recommended Jun 5, 2026
Absolutely amazing hidden gem of very original, unique and difficult puzzle games! Nothing is given for free, even if some puzzles might feel easy, most of them require you to really think what you're doing. Game is sassy and witty, and keeps surprising me at every turn. The story is really good, and I hope it never ends!

The first Yesterday was pretty cool, but the 2nd instalment went over my head pretty quickly.
