A logic puzzler where you push word tiles around to rewrite the rules of each level. The mechanic sounds simple and becomes genuinely mind-bending. It's lightweight and runs without issue on any iGPU. It misses the main list because replay drops off once the puzzles are cleared, and the difficulty curve is steep enough that some players hit a wall mid-game and stop. The hardest puzzles took me an embarrassing amount of time, for what it's worth. For puzzle enthusiasts on modest hardware, it's worth every frustrating minute.

Overview
About Baba Is You
Baba Is You is a puzzle game where you can change the rules by which you play. In every level, the rules themselves are present as blocks you can interact with; by manipulating them, you can change how the level works and cause surprising, unexpected interactions! With some simple block-pushing you can turn yourself into a rock, turn patches of grass into dangerously hot obstacles, and even change the goal you need to reach to something entirely different.
