I think every game designer should get their copy of the game, even if it is only for the sake of studying it's pitfalls. I'm way past colossus No.4 now, and I still think it is one of the most beautifully crafted and boring experiences I've had in years. The core game play seems to be focus around either searching over long periods, or waiting for tutorial messages to give you that one fundamental hint to _begin_ attacking a colossus. Let me know when you're through! Well, that’s ok. I think every game designer should get their copy of the game, even if it is only for the sake of studying it’s pitfalls.

It takes a bit to get used to some of the control anomalies, but the thing is just fantastic. Game of the year, we say. Don’t give up.
