Explore mysterious caverns and solve cryptic quantum circuit puzzles in the indie game The Long Gate. This puzzle game will be coming to Steam on the 22nd of September. To make the puzzles as good as possible, the creator even partnered with people who know all quantum circuits.

Players are free to explore the mysterious caverns of this videogame on their own terms. Almost all the puzzles can be completed in any order.
