Checked 14 October 2026. Mouse/keyboard and controller support are confirmed. A complete platform-by-platform binding chart remains unverified.

What I checked

I read Steam's controller line and the PlayStation DualSense haptic line. I also read the 2014 and 2015 source-game key lists and kept them in a separate paragraph so they are not mistaken for the 2026 bindings.

What stores confirm

Steam lists full controller support, and the publisher's 15 June demo FAQ explicitly supports mouse/keyboard or gamepad. PS5's store lists DualSense vibration. The 9 October patch documents R2 for speeding time and fixes it after the first puzzle solve when starting with Skipping Stones; it is a patch-specific control reference, not a complete button chart.

A Steam discussion title reports R as board reset. Source-game keys and upstream solution action letters are kept separate from shipped-game bindings. No tested table of movement, interaction, character switch, undo, reset and secondary action for all three platforms was obtained.

What I will not print

There is no official WASD chart, no mouse-button map, and no Switch button diagram in the sources checked. A third-party site uses X, C, and V as notation for its own routes and says the in-game binds win. I am not copying that notation as fact.

Questions

Can I use a mouse and keyboard?

Yes. The official demo FAQ explicitly supports them alongside a gamepad. The full game's complete binding chart is not verified here.

Does DualSense vibration work?

The PlayStation Store lists support.
