So, what we have here, another Zachlike. This feels like a sequel to TIS-100 but diametrically different in many ways.
The focus has shifted heavily from resolving the puzzle to its best optimization, someone may like it but i think it makes a lot of levels too easy to complete.
The package though is just so well rounded and polished that it deserves top marks

+ It's the test-driven development you know and love
+ Finally a modern looking Zachtronics game with support for 21:9 and higher resolutions
+ A lot of love was put in the enigmas, their presentation and the fantastic user manual
+ Circuits managing brings back the "spacial" programming that made Spacechem great
+ Endless potential for optimization with an abundance of components and tricks to learn
+ Probably more educational than most of your college courses
+ Chinese solitaire serves as a nice break

- For the most part of the game you can just keep adding components to solve puzzles easily
