Mimic is a short and charming puzzle game with a weird premise – copy the movement of the creatures you see to transform into them. So, for example, if you move back and forth horizontally like a fish, you’ll become a fish, and can swim in the water. Or, move in a kind of L shape tetris block pattern to become a mountain goat. And so forth.
I really like it when a game takes a weird idea and lets me discover all the funny unexpected consequences of it. “What happens when I …?” is one of the best questions a game can invite you to ask.
