two hours or so into it so far, so I don't have an overview of the whole game.

The puzzles so far have rarely asked for more than 10 seconds to find a solution.

Navigating the island does feel like an artificial overgame at the moment. Some of the puzzles have caused changes in the 3D world but in very small ways.

I guess that things are going to get more complex soon though.

Some of the puzzles hide elements, and block elements. Also, the environments themselves eventually give way to 'meta-puzzles' on a larger scale.
