Twisted Tower

Fun little 4 hour bioshock-like with fun mechanics, a beautiful artstyle, and wacky level design. I did find the story to be quite bland, and while the game mechanics are fun, I find the guns to be pretty generic. I find the asking price is just. I Recommend UNLESS you need a good narrative to hook you into a single player game

I really loved this game! This game has very strong Bioshock vibes while also being its own thing and telling a decent story. I just wish it was longer (this game is pretty short). But otherwise, great combat, an amazing art style, good voice acting. I would so love to see this universe expanded on whether that be in the form of sequels or DLC.

I wish my memory was wiped so I could experience this game again.

Very fun game. Lots to look at and smash. All of the aspects of the game so far have met my expectations. Well done

Fun game. Would be great to play around Halloween. It was kind of easy on the normal difficulty and you have way too many weapons that are effective on all enemy types so there isn't much strategy, just use whatever weapon you feel like. However, the game is still a lot of fun, has good vibes, and decent story.

I want to start off by saying that I've been following Thomas Brush and his work for years at this point so I'll try not to sound too biased. I haven't really had much time to dive in to any new games in the last few years but having followed the development of Twisted Tower for longer than I can remember, I couldn't skip over this one. I've only put a few hours in so far but I have to say, this has been an awesome escape from work, life, and general stresses, leaving me wanting to find more time to jump back in and finish the game. The combat and the FPS mechanics feel unique but familiar, the visuals are totally reminiscent of Bioshock which is a huge nostalgia hit, and the story elements with the notes and letters found throughout the game has kept me intrigued to find out how the story ends. Some of the story elements are definitely deeper than I expected which I really appreciate. I think I expected more comedic relief with the whole Disney meets Willy Wonka vibe, but this works. As someone who doesn't really find much time these days to play a new game, the fact alone that I'm here writing a review says a lot in itself i guess? I understand this doesn't say much about the game in general but I have to give credit where it's due. Being able to pick up a new game and escape for a while and enjoying every puzzle moment, gun fight, and jumpscare has been really nice. A direct thanks and congrats to Thomas Brush for pulling this off! Stoked for whatever comes next. ONE improvement: a minimap of some format would go a long way LOL. It's taken me a little while to navigate and shamed to say I've been a little lost some times when trying to navigate back to the lobby!

NO SPOILERS----The game runs and plays very well and I experienced zero frame drops or major bugs. That in and of itself sadly in this day and age is a huge bonus. It's a 3-4 hour campaign if you just push through without really exploring. It has a very Bioshock like gameplay loop. The problem I have is the story and the world. From the outside looking in the world looks amazing but once you actually start playing, the game just falls flat compared to something like Bioshock. The story is as bland and obvious as expected. They pretty much tell you what is going on. I wanted to love this game because it looked like a really good Bioshock clone but I just don't. This is a one and done playthrough. I hope this team makes another game like this and they really nail the atmosphere and the story while keeping it bug free, FPS stable and same gameplay and feel. I see a lot of potential. Conclusion - A solid 6.5/10. Pick it up on sale if you want a dumbed down Bioshock with solid gameplay.
