It's like finding a lost gaming system along with its whole catalogue.

Simple gameplay is elevated to enormous heights thanks to an incredibly engrossing narrative and simply EXCEPTIONAL storytelling. If you like good stories and don't mind games with limited interactivity, do yourself a favour, go blind and play the game.

The biggest recommendation I can give is that in an era where games fail to capture my attention for more than 15 minutes straight, this one gripped me right from the start to the very end. I just wanted to know more about the story.

I played this game with no expectations whatsoever and to my surprise it turned out to be one of the best puzzle games I have ever played. The Portal influence is really obvious, but beyond that the puzzle mechanics are solid and the story is gripping and hits all the right notes. Very recommended.

It's still Braid, but with better graphics, some new levels and hours of commentary. It remains one of the best designed games in recent history, a perfect blend of game design, story, gameplay, graphics and music. If you are looking for a lot of new content you won't find it here, but it's still very much worth the asking price for the update and the new additions.

If you like roguelikes just get it now

One of the best 2-D platformers I have ever played.

I liked it as much as the first one, and that is high praise indeed.

A fantastically atmospheric game with a killer visual style. But before you buy it, understand this: at its core, this game is a digital solo boardgame. If you expect anything else, you're in for a disappointment. I personally like it a lot.

A prime example of how a lazy, cynical, non-sensical, absurd, obtuse, disrespectful, idiotic, heavy-handed, ham-fisted ending can ruin a perfectly good game. Great even.
