This game has a great concept and gets rapidly more challenging and cerebral as it goes on. My only complaint is that even on the lowest settings, my computer struggles to keep up with it sometimes. It seems like a game that could be easier to optimize for less powerful systems.

If you like a slow yet constantly-rising sense of dread and panic in your interactive experiences and don't mind feeling trapped in a spiraling static of tension for about 5 hours, then I recommend this game to you. I found it as delightful as I did absolutely claustrophobic and scarring. A+

Excellent puzzles, very calming, very little penalty for failure (similar to Fez in that you just start again), and an interesting plot that slowly unravels.

Simple mechanics, short but fun story, great community-made puzzles. I find myself coming back to this game more than I ever expected.

Excellent first-person puzzle platformer. Valve set the bar high with this little game.

This game has made me care deeply about a bunch of little rectangles as they platform across a nothingscape. Great music, great platforming, and surprisingly interesting story.

This game is so delightfully peculiar. I love every second I've spent playing it. It's the perfect meta-commentary game.

I did not expect a game of passport inspection to be so intriguing. It's a great game of slow strategy, deciding between following the rules to the letter or working an angle to get a better deal for your family. I found the political changes day by day really engaging and the folks that come through are amusing. It's a methodical game of comparison, investigation, interrogation, and corruption. Super recommended,

Huge fan of this game. I've played it through four times now and it's always been such a joy. The interactions between the main characters are great and the park environment is beautiful to just stroll through, regardless of any task at hand. This game makes me want to visit national parks (though perhaps not during high drought) and rappel from steep inclines and climb around on boulders.

The mechanics of the platforming and the teleport gun were nice. Interesting concept and I enjoyed the execution of the teleport gun. The game quickly lost my interest though. The game was both too expository and not descriptive enough. I felt myself wanting to hurry through the childlike acknowledgement of something new while not understanding what the limits of the world are in exploring how to get past it. I would have liked to be able to view what has previously been "said" in the game to assist in the puzzles. The anime feel of the overarching story was not really my style either.
