[url=https://store.steampowered.com/curator/43083373/]Clever games curator review: 9/10[/url]. Short, but very well done game filled with mild (but satisfying) puzzles, a little reflex-testing action, and really nice isometric visuals. At first I couldn't believe it was free, but once I found out how short it is (and how it ends rather abruptly) it made more sense. BUT, not every game needs to be a month long epic. This is a fantastic 40ish minute experience (to be played in one sitting, as there is no save). Gameplay consists of sliding a few movable platforms around a large static level allowing you to climb onto things you couldn't reach otherwise, or bridge gaps. The exact order of movement needs to be considered because there are often multiple platforms you need to juggle, either to keep them from blocking each other, or because you need them to block each other. Given the small number of levels, they do a very good job of trotting out new mechanics using this basic idea, and nothing ever wears thin. That's one of the advantages to sticking to such a short game, I suppose. If you really like it, try to get all the 13 "fragments" instead of just reaching the end of each level as quick as possible. They definitely require extra attention to detail, backtracking, etc, and significantly add to playtime and enjoyment. I wish there was some kind of counter showing if you had collected all of them before you ended the current level. If every free game was this good, us video game designers would be (gulp) out of a job.

[h1] Truly awesome puzzle experience. Push huge blocks making path, aligning them require some thinking. Two type of blocks: blue which can be controlled by telekinesis, and orange which can be moved only when standing on them. Gameplay is short but 100% worth your time. Visuals are nicely made with colossal looking sceneries. Music is good. Must be played before death otherwise your life is worth nothing more than bread crumbles. [/h1]
Très bon jeu prometteur pour une version longue. Les bases sont là et j'ai hâte de découvrir les prochains puzzle plus complexe. J'ai joué sur mon steamdeck et le jeu était parfaitement fluide. C'était une très bonne expérience vidéo ludique!!!
Alors, c'est un jeu qui est trop court, signe que le jeu est cool ! Les musiques sont super belles et évolutives et le gameplay est simple a prendre en main Un bon petit jeu puzzle bien réalisé, bien optimisé on attend que la suite !
Petit jeu sympathique avec de très bonnes idées de gameplay, on'en voudrait plus et avec des énigmes plus dures.

Ce jeu est une petite pépite qui mérite d'être davantage mise en avant. Le gameplay est simple mais super prenant. L'univers graphique est très bien travaillé, avec les musiques on est totalement absorbé par le jeu ! On aimerait que ça dure plus longtemps. Bravo à l'équipe !
I would give this game a positive review if not for the constant camera motion making me feel motion sick. There's a bunch of lovely little puzzles and art in this game that I can barely enjoy. I'm willing to change this review to a positive if an option for reduced camera motion is added.
一款极小体量的解谜闯关游戏,整体流程大概半小时左右,我是因为中途吃了半个西瓜顺便刷了会手机才打了一个小时,游戏的整体玩法和推箱子差不多,画风感觉有点借鉴《纪念碑谷》的味道,总体难度较为简单,适合用来打发一些碎片化的时间,游戏中让我比较印象深刻的是最后一关的竞速环节,要跟涨水的速度比拼前进的速度,我还是习惯用键鼠,但这个游戏必须要用手柄,因为要一边移动人物一边移动砖块,开始有点不适应,后面习惯了就还好,可惜就是流程太短了,玩得不尽兴,给个70分吧
