Time trial type shit where you auto fail and have to start over if you don’t complete the task within a certain time limit that has a ticking down clock.

Now, this mechanic is fine provided that the game gives you plenty of time to do The Task, there are methods of gaining more time/slowing the clock, or the game itself is built with this mechanic in mind (Warioware is fine, for example)

But I mostly play fucking puzzle games/escape rooms, and idk what it is about puzzle and escape room game devs (Thinking very specifically of Cube Escape: Case 23 here, if you know you know) that makes them think putting a timer on their game is a good idea, but I can promise you this:

If you do this, I will pull up a guide because I cannot think THAT deeply under that kind of time restraint, why would you do that in the first place? Who can think critically enough to solve a relatively complex series of Escape Room style puzzles when there's a relatively unforgiving timer set on it that puts you back at the start of the puzzle sequence upon failing?

Anyways, I spent too long stuck on that sequence in Case 23 and I am still a little salty.

actually @ everyone least favorite game mechanic/type of level in videogames

for extra fun points you can’t say escorting missions and ice physics levels (even if you’re right) or water levels (because you’re wrong)

Playing Case 23, I commend Dale VanderMeer for his commitment because if I saw a woman's corpse magically hang upside down whilst a bunch of months fly out of her mouth I would've immediately quit my job forever but he really said " I need to collect all the evidence first".

cube escape paradox is actually So good like theres Something about how this detective that was just assigned a murder case ended up trapped in an endless cycle just because this woman’s death couldn’t leave his brain and how it also brought back incredibly traumatic memories of the day his parents were murdered

and laura makes me really sad too like she never asked for this. she never asked to be a reincarnation of william vanderboom she didn’t ask to be entangled in this fucked up family she didn’t ask to be also stuck in this loop, in this lake as a corrupted soul

dale and laura became so entangled in each other’s stories even though they never met while she was alive and are tragic to me and this is all mr crows fault idc im blaming his ass WHATEVER
