Is it still worth playing?
Daniel Mullins' 2016 game for PC, in which you play an old arcade game, Pony Island, that Lucifer has taken over to win your soul. It looks like a point and click adventure with an endless runner inside it. In the runner, a pony jumps and shoots lasers from its mouth at barriers and enemies. Portals lead to screens of simple code, where you rearrange instructions to change how things work, and you go through the machine's files and delete programs. It lasts just over two hours. It still stands out today for making the game itself the puzzle.
