comments
- Art style/Visuals
- Good Puzzles (require you to think, and not always straightforward)
- Interesting brother mechanics
- Sound (sometimes there was almost no music nor environmental sound of any kind)
- Animations (they're are a bit slow and clunky)
- Price (a bit pricey, i would put it somewhere around 10-15 euros)
This is almost a clone of LIMBO, except the concepts behind it are even better. But in practice, it shows some evident flaws.
Regardless, I definitely recommend this game you’re a fan of puzzle games, but perhaps on a sale.
