About

Ablepsia is a point-and-click puzzle game where you guide a blind old man through cities shrouded in darkness. You can't control his movement directly. Instead you use the space bar to halt him and the mouse to activate streetlights that clear obstacles in his path. Each level presents a maze of hazards that block his route. Your job is to time your interventions just right so he reaches his destination without collision. The simplicity of controls contrasts with the tricky challenges of navigating complex urban layouts. What sets Ablepsia apart is its clever inversion of typical control mechanics. By limiting your influence to stopping and lighting up the environment you have to think several steps ahead. The game’s minimalistic presentation focuses attention on its core puzzle design. Players who enjoy methodical problem solving might find the 58 levels offer just the right blend of repetition and variation. Though brief the experience leaves a strong impression through its inventive approach to navigation puzzles.
