    Major Magnet is a passionate project, one that tries to honor its forefathers while existing as its own original work. And it succeeds tremendously.

    Clever and very hard, this game reminds us of some good old classics, bringing its own personality and proposal to the genre.

    Major Magnet is a very clever puzzle game, original and addictive, with just some balancing issues. However, it's a recommended purchase.
