puzzle game...

Memory, as an unstable, unreliable, weak self-repairing ability, and quite easy to be tampered with and self-forgotten, has its own specific protection mechanism.At the moment when the owner of the memory is not aware of it, the brain often has its own initiative to selectively delete the parts that it considers "unnecessary" or "threatening".These voluntarily forgotten memories are covered with dust over time.Perhaps it is possible to be remembered after being triggered by a special event, or it will be permanently forgotten in a long time.

Of course, there are some good people who make this process great, euphemistically calling it "memory seal".And when the so-called seal is really broken, the person concerned will probably have mixed feelings and embarrassment so much that he can't wait to go back to the stove and rebuild.

Games are traps.This is a theorem that Kudo Shinichi keeps solidifying as he grows older.

Do not touch unless absolutely necessary.

Unexpectedly, at this moment that was neither special nor memorable, Kuroba's words evoke dusty memories, and Kudo instantly felt remorse and wanted to log out.

For a long time, Kudo, who is very self-aware of his forbidden physique in games, has kept a distance from his personal forbidden zone very restrainedly.However, life will not allow such a near-zero field to exist.Due to some force majeure, Kudo himself will still be exposed to various types of games from time to time.

As a directly related person, the doctor will no longer ask Kudo for testing in the early stages of developing a new game after experiencing painful lessons.And Mao Lilan, occasionally encountering difficulties in the game, still chooses to ask her peers around her for help.

It was these few "occasionals" that became the part of Kudo's memory that he most wanted to eliminate.

"I can't solve the code here..."

"Isn't the prompt next to it very obvious? According to the author's thinking, the answer should be this..."

"Ah, wrong."

"How is it possible?! By the way, the unlock code for the next room should be entered like this..."

"Well, let me try...the password is wrong, it seems that's not the case."

Repeatedly defeated.

"I'm not very fond of puzzle games." Honestly.

Each author's way of formulating questions and thinking routines is different, which leads to having to reconsider every time a new puzzle is encountered.Thinking that he was out of tune with those who made the question, Kudo hadn't touched the puzzle game for quite a while.

In terms of puzzles, it is still a comparison in reality...

"Hey, don't you like it?" I sighed in a general sense. "Well, I'm a little surprised."

At a time like this, does he put on a familiar attitude... Kudo twitched his lips a little funny at this reaction as if he was an old acquaintance. "...why the surprise?"

"I just think that the guy who calls himself 'the famous detective' should like to solve puzzles?" Hei Yu expressed his perception, "Or is the famous detective the kind of person who can't pass the level without reading the strategy?"

"How is it possible?" Kudo felt vaguely that the direction of the topic was shifting, and tried to turn the focus back to the game. "Those puzzles are set too randomly, and there is no value in solving them."

"...That's really an arrogant statement."

Kudo Shinichi does not think that his selective giving up to save time and energy for himself is "arrogance".

"Those who solve the puzzle will cry."

Being a character who is "created" but defending the "creator"?As the topic deepened, Kudo even had a feeling that he was not facing a plain and monotonous screen, nor was he using the game as a platform to have a conversation with a game character.

At that moment, he was almost convinced that Hei Yu was a real "person".

Regardless of whether he was "created" or not, at least the thoughts he is conveying at this moment undoubtedly come from a "person" with flesh and blood.

"Those puzzles are too subjective," Kudo chose to continue the topic, "If you don't understand the thinking process of the questioner in advance, there is no way to solve it." That's right, those clumsy puzzles are just extremely A combination of subjective and even extremely one-sided knowledge, if you don’t understand the scope of the questioner’s knowledge and the background in which you obtained this knowledge, the probability of solving the puzzle without relying on any hints is infinitely close to zero.

"There is no way to solve it?" Simply repeating questions can form a good topic development.

"Obviously holding such a subjective attitude when formulating the question, but still asking the party solving the puzzle to look at it objectively, who is the arrogant..." Involuntarily, Kudo began to complain, "If you say If you want the mystery to be solved, the premise and position should at least be equal, right?"

"But that's not the original intention of the author of the question." Hei Yu played the role of the defender to the end. "The puzzles are placed there in the hope that they can be solved."

"...Why do you say that?" The original intention of the master who placed the bomb was to make it impossible for anyone to dismantle it safely.And the most superb bomb disposal experts will not respect this opponent because of this.

"Actually, you don't know how to solve puzzle games at all, detective." He judged without leaving any room for doubt. "No matter how subjective the person who made the question is, they will not easily break the unique rules."

"Rules?" Talking about puzzle games in RPG games seems to have exceeded the scope of the system's presets.Not caring so much, Kudo just wanted to continue the topic with one mind at the moment.

"It's as if some monsters have their own specific way to break through," Kuroba continued after seeing no objections, "Each form of puzzle also has its own specific way to solve it. For example ... Logical problems, a famous detective will always solve them, right?"

"If you don't force some puzzling settings." The setting of the game's background will always interfere with the understanding of the prerequisites.

"Have you ever seen puzzles about time and date? At this time, we must rely on numbers...Of course, the reminders of images cannot be ignored."

"...I still know this." Is it really okay to suddenly start teaching puzzles at this time?For this puzzle-solving strategy that novices can understand, Kudo inexplicably feels familiar meaning from it. "Wait, you mean images?"

"Don't ignore other hints just because the answer is a number~" Kuroba's tone was very cheerful, "Of course, the reasoning about the location is the same. In this case, word games account for more weight."

"As for how to trigger a specific organ, basically all the prompts will not exceed the map where the organ is located, and the prompts are generally more obvious. Sometimes the text prompts may be as simple and rude as it is written on the surface, If you over-interpret it, it will waste time..."

"I don't intend to try puzzle games," Kudo interrupted his "Strategy Guidance", "It doesn't make sense for you to tell me these things."

"..."

"So my task now is... to kill this monster in front of me?"

The topic was forcibly moved back.

How could you not understand, the so-called "puzzle-solving routine".

I've solved far more puzzles than you can imagine.

Seeing that Kuroba on the screen has successfully reached the bottom of the diagonal line of the map, looking for an opportunity to set up a trap, Kudo thought to himself.

Puzzles are just superficial appearances.At what height does the puzzler think about the puzzle, what kind of information they hope to convey through the puzzle, and even what kind of emotions are buried in those hints or text traps, all the puzzle-solving party needs to figure out. penetrating.

In this way, in the process of constantly solving puzzles, the existence of the questioner himself is gradually touched.What the other party is thinking and wanting to express, all go to unravel.

After successfully moving to the best attack position through the expanded range of action, Kuroba was preparing for the final attack.Holding the winning ticket and smiling, Kudo crossed his arms and watched the battle relaxed and stress-free in a good mood.

Said that he "doesn't like puzzle games", he was just too lazy to figure out what those insignificant guys were thinking.
