1112 episode 01 is the first in a series of puzzle adventure games where you follow a story and solve the related puzzles to progress. You may even use items during scenes between puzzles.

Play through a story of mystery and weird dreams

1112 episode 01 is an episodic puzzle game with a similar gaming mechanic to the professor Layton games, but 1112 has far fewer puzzles and is less open world. The game is poorly optimized, which means there are intermittent lags and temporary freezes between scene changes. Unlike the Layton series, there is a bit of wiggle room in the narrative, which means you may be able to take a slightly different journey when you play through for a second time.

A puzzle game with puzzle bugs

1112 episode 01 offers a mild bit of puzzle amusement to go along with the narrative, but the game is so buggy that it is difficult to enjoy. For example, there are puzzles where you may complete the puzzle correctly, but the game will not let you progress, which means you have to go back and keep redoing the puzzle until the game decides to let you continue.
