Reminds me of those 80s adventure games that always had one hard puzzle and when you finally found out the answer was really annoyed by how random and insignificant it was.

Yeah, I spent a lot of time banging my head against the wall of Zork, and in the end felt it was a "guess what I'm thinking" pastime that was not worth my time.

Yep, I had the same experience with Zork--for me it was "echo". I was playing too rationally and not just trying too many random things "for fun".

Why is the logo image in Level 10 desaturated? I was sure that meant something, but it doesn't seem like it did.

Could I get a little hint or nudge on 23?
I'm currently down the rabbit hole of reading about (ROT13) uggcf://zrqvhz.pbz/@wnzrfeboregf_96602/genafsbezref-hx-gur-pbzvp-gung-arneyl-purngrq-qrngu-9np69r7578q2
I also considered colors...

his name is important, combine that with the clue on the page, and you'll get it

Got it! And here I was thinking it was much more complicated and related to the cancelled final issue of the TFUK comic serialization...
What a wild goose chase I sent myself on.

the problem is that I have ZERO knowledge about transformers, so that's what's stopping me,

It happens :) I spent 1.5 days on level 23. And now stuck on level 35 for 2 days. Sometimes things are really very simple, but we complicate them. Sometimes we make mistake while typing the answer, like I did on level 26. That extra space in my answer took my whole day.

but what has to do the clue with prime numbers, is not a prime number. I really don't know how to connect both things. :(

Like an Encyclopedia Brown or Sherlock mystery, the explanations make sense in retrospect. I will give it another go when I have the time/patience.

A good adventure game is hard to make difficult and satisfying I think. I remember having a lot of trouble with monkey island puzzles until I figured out the game “logic”. But once you do, all the clues are there and it’s great.
If I need to know about random facts or topics or whatever, that’s not hard. That’s just annoying or the author is trying to prove how much smarter they are than you.
