About
Thomas Was Alone. And then, well, he Wasn't.
Thomas Was Alone is an indie minimalist 2D platformer about friendship and jumping and floating and anti-gravity. Starting with Thomas, become acquainted with a group of rectangles-slash-sentient-AIs, learn their individual abilities, and navigate them through 120 levels of obstacles.
Listen to a critically acclaimed score by David Housden. Jump over blocks and barriers meticulously placed by Mike Bithell. Listen to a voiceover read wistfully, a bit amusingly, and BAFTA-winningly by Danny Wallace.
Thomas Was Alone tells the story of the world's first sentient artificial intelligences, and how they worked together to, well, not escape: Escape is a strong word. 'Emerge' might be better. 'Emerge' has an air of importance about it, while keeping the myriad plot twists and superhero origin stories you'll discover under wraps. We didn't even mention the bouncing. That'd be overkill.

Utilize the unique skills of 10+ characters to beat 120 levels.
Uncover the story of AIs becoming unexpectedly sentient.
Immerse yourself in David Housden's critically acclaimed procedural score.
Chuckle along to Danny Wallace's narration.

they need each other..
Play it for the narrator and the entertaining writing. The platforming is alright, but gets tedious towards the end; especially the penultimate level isn't hard but requires a lot of faffing about.
I enjoy puzzle games and platformers, but just thought this did both poorly. Also wasn't personally a fan of the narrative and was surprised to see it had won awards. Not for me I guess.
Link to review: https://backloggd.com/u/RedBackLoggd/review/4482327/ Tl;dr -- While Thomas Was Alone won’t be for everyone, platformer fanatics should definitely try it out.
GGs he conseguido todos los logros de este juego. No ha sido muy difícil completarlo, es bastante fácil pero me ha gustado. Si lo que buscas es un juego de plataformeo sencillo Thomas Was Alone es para ti.
Для меня это слишком сложно, но придумать интересную игру про фигуры, это надо иметь талант. Лайк только за это.
this game is amazing, it makes you fall in love with characters that are literally just variations on a square, while having fun puzzles.
Honestly, the game starts really good and decays by the end of it, but still a solid 8/10 game. Kinda felt like none of the storylines had a proper ending though
A really decent puzzle platformer with an excellent musical score and a wonderful narrative. It isn't very long, but what is there is absolutely substantial. Highly recommended even at its base price!
