THE IMPOSSIBLE is a minimal perspective illusion puzzle game. You control a small square in the IMPOSSIBLE world and remember: nothing is IMPOSSIBLE.
Players take control of a small cube and guide it through 30 levels that feature intricate, M.C. Escher-inspired designs. These levels present impossible constructions and shapes that challenge the player's perception of spatial relationships and geometry. To progress, players must shift their perspective and discern the hidden paths that allow the cube to reach the designated goal. Reviewers praised the well-designed puzzles, noting that they are moderately challenging but highly satisfying to solve as one's understanding of the levels' logic deepens.
The game offers several control options, including keyboard, gamepad, and mouse input. While some reviewers initially found the control scheme, especially the diagonal movements, to be counterintuitive, most agreed that the controls become intuitive with practice. The ability to use the numeric keypad or arrow keys to navigate the cube was particularly appreciated, as it allowed for precise movements through the intricate level designs.
The game features a minimalist visual style that focuses on the Escher-inspired geometry and shapes, without unnecessary distractions. This design choice was widely praised, as it allows players to concentrate on the puzzles without being overwhelmed by complex graphics. The clean, monochromatic aesthetic, combined with the relaxing background music, creates a meditative atmosphere that complements the thoughtful, perspective-shifting gameplay.
