    Duet’s elegant brilliance is starkly defined against its unforgiving difficulty, and there’s a truly entrancing puzzler lurking beneath its surface.

    Kumobius has tapped into something special with Duet. Underneath the minimal exterior is a game that’s complex, challenging and wonderfully rewarding. A must have for anyone looking to broaden their iOS horizons. [Issue 1, February 2014]

    Duet is good—very good. It's not flawless, but neither does it expect you to be. This isn't an endless strive for a few more moments of perfection. The dance allows a few missteps, and doesn't it feel incredible when you get it just right?

    Duet is a fantastic, brain-melting ditty of an iOS game. It's a hypnotic, "try, try again" love song that you just won't be able to bring yourself to feel hatred towards, despite the numerous splattered deaths that will tear at your heart. This is essential mobile gaming.

    Following the die-early-and-die-often mechanics of titles like Super Hexagon and Pivvot, Duet offers another fantastic offering with minimalist graphics, a rocking soundtrack, and super-responsive controls that make for an experience that’s both frustrating and rewarding.

    Duet is a little gem that many will overlook... and it's a shame, because it has an excellent design that will capture you for hours.

    A harsh and unforgiving game, Duet rewards those who put the work in.

    Simple but devious, Duet is another twisty and satisfying iOS puzzler for Pivvot and Super Heagon fans.

    Duet Game is only for you if you like being a glutton for punishment, as the game doesn’t walk that fine balance between challenge, and enjoyment. Instead it loses the enjoyment along the way making it one to spin past.

This is not a puzzle game, I wouldn't even call it a game for your reflexes, in later levels I found that it's more like a meditative experience where you rely on your inner instincts. You just let yourself immerse in the flow, listen to the fantastic electronic soundtrack, feel inspired, think about the game's narrator's one-liners before each level and test your abilities to the max. 7/10… Full Review »
