This community is to find that game you can't remember. Like it's on the tip of your tongue.

If you want to post, use this syntax: [Platform][Estimated Year] A short description of the game.
Example:
[NES][1980]A man jumping on mushrooms

You can add a longer description in the Body. Preferably according to the template in the rules.

If your game is found, change the title by adding [Solved] in front of the title, and the game name. For example:
[Solved][NES][1980s] Super Mario Bros.
If you're not sure about any of the details you can add [Unknown] instead.

Rules:

  1. One game per post
  2. Mark your post if it's solved according to the above syntax
  3. Try using this template when posting:

Platform(s):

Genre:

Estimated year of release:

Graphics/art style:

Notable characters:

Notable gameplay mechanics:

Hello, I played a puzzle game somewhat 4 years ago, but I don't remember the name. The game is about placing symbols on a grid to get to a specific solution. Each symbols has a functionality, like copying other symbols, or move them, but the functionality is not described, we have to guess what it is. IIRC 40 challenges to solve, and the game is a game playable on online browser. Do you guys know what it this game's name?

The OP of the !games@lemmy.world post found it, it’s Gestalt_OS https://www.increpare.com/game/gestalt_os.html

Would you mind editing the post title to reflect the found status and the game name?
