I had a great time playing TRACE Definitive Edition! This is a lovingly crafted point‑and‑click escape puzzle game, a full remaster of the original web release.

What I loved most:
-Clever puzzles – The challenges are genuinely engaging and there’s a real “aha!” feeling when everything clicks. Some of the trickier puzzles definitely had me thinking hard.
-Beautiful visuals & atmosphere – The updated graphics and environments really bring the world to life compared to the original web version, and the attention to detail adds to the immersion.

What could improve:
-Optional hint system – Because a few puzzles can be tricky without walkthroughs, I’d love to see an optional hint button in future updates so players can get a nudge if they need it without spoiling anything.
-More story elements – Leading up to the launch, the devs released short web games/videos that expanded on the storyline. I almost wish some of that narrative had been included in the game itself to give a deeper look into the lore. Overall, I’d love to see more story elements added in the future

Overall, TRACE Definitive Edition is a delightful escape/puzzle game that’s well worth your time if you enjoy methodical, thoughtful challenges with character and style.
