For an early access game, I would say that for less than $5 it's pretty worth it to see what becomes of this game. While the gameplay is rather simple, I had fun playing around with some of the abilities you gain. The puzzles can also range from fun and easy to difficult, but satisfying to solve. I'm excited to see how this game continues to improve and hope to see more in the future.

About This Game
Lexicon is a single-player puzzle adventure game that invites players to solve mind-bending challenges using familiar 2000s-style flash game mechanics while telling a unique story about a person who finds themselves in the mysterious, and sometimes highly quirky, world of Ekkos.

Immerse yourself in the enigmatic and delightfully eccentric world of Ekkos as you traverse Babel’s 6 unique domains, meet its peculiar inhabitants, and discover its hidden secrets.
EKKOS
The realm between life and death is visited by few as most beings are unaware of its existence. Although Ekkos is made up of several habitable layers, most beings live in the layer known as Babel.
Babel consists of 6 unique geographical domains that each possess their own people and problems. In Lexicon, you will navigate through each of these domains to ultimately escape from the world between worlds.
CHARACTERS
As you travel through Ekkos, you will interact with a diverse array of beings of various personalities, ideologies and idiosyncrasies. Some of them might seem shy at first, but don’t be afraid to engage them more than once! If prodded enough, these characters may reveal more about themselves, and they might just surprise you…

With its classic ¾ perspective and enchanting vector art, Lexicon will challenge your wits and evoke the nostalgia of 2000s-style web games as you solve head-scratching conundrums.
INDUS
Some speakers of the long lost language have the ability to manifest words into physical form. On your journey, you will need to learn new words in Indus to explore the various Domains each containing their own elemental characteristics.
POWERS
The origin of your powers is a mystery, yet mastery of them will prove essential to overcoming difficult challenges. Powers like Time Stop can be used in combination with Indus to pass through dangerous environments.
2000S NOSTALGIA
We cherish the days of secretly playing web games on our elementary school computers long before any of us owned high end consoles and PCs. We want to reinvent what made these great games great and allow for this next generation of gamers to experience them with our modern interpretation.

User Reviews
after playing for a little over an hour this game is really fun! the puzzles do challenge you but they are not to hard to solve. i also like the fire ball mechanics and being able to slow down time. overall this game pretty good.
I enjoyed the writing, and the mysterious almost mystical / quasi-religious tone. The character designs are abstract and fun, I'm partial to the Ipod nano dudes myself. Overall I'd give it 4 out of 5 flipped levers, maybe almost too much text to read for A.D.D. brains like myself, but most is optional.
Cool vibe, fun and challenging puzzles, and good soundtrack!
Puzzles are fun and challenging. Music and atmosphere are great. Unique game from a small studio, excited to see what updates they provide.
A solid heart felt game with a lot of lore, collectibles, intricate characters (My favorite is Buck) and artsy world design. I cant wait for more story and new areas.
For early access, this game is amazing! It perfectly captures that early 2000s flash game style but with a fun puzzle solving mechanic. The art style is absolutely charming and the overall movement is crisp. Excellent world-building with TONS of lore and readable objects. I'm not the best with top-down spatial awareness, so I did get lost a couple times even while reading the direction signs, so maybe a world map with points of interest marked might help. To say I'm excited to see where the rest of this game goes is an understatement, I can't wait for the next areas and the rest of the story! May Nonbeing inflame your soul!
This game is really fun! There is alot of interesting lore to read! And The characters are very quirky and fun!
I really love Lexicon's puzzles, lore, music, and art. But the thing that sticks out to me is the large amount of quality character dialogue. Although many AAA games have lots of character dialogue, many times it tends to be filler. Lexicon's dialogue reminds me of when I used to repeatedly click on StarCraft unit portraits to hear their hidden lines. In Lexicon, most characters have about 2 or 3 conversations in them, but some of the special characters have even more conversations that reveal more about the world. It's kind of like the real world where you have to talk to someone to get to know them. Looking forward to when the game is fully done!
