    Windosill will only take new players around 45 minutes to complete, but every second is superb.

    Windosill is a game that I feel should be experienced by everyone. The puzzles are well thought out, it looks and sounds great and has such a unique feel. Really great stuff.

    Only you can know if you can be satisfied by such a brief encounter. If you can, Windosill is fantastic. It's gorgeous, playful and feels like it was born to be played on a touch screen. But I wouldn't blame you if the brevity is just too much.

    The whole game is over far too quickly, and the whole feels too fragmented and superficial to stand among the best. Aesthetically, the game is exceedingly interesting, but the interactions are somewhat trite. Still, its conceptual uniqueness makes it a game worth playing.

YouWindosill brings you into a beautiful game that looks childlike but requires attention, patience, and ingenuity to successfully complete. You begin with a mostly dark screen and no instructions. You need to click around to figure out how to light up the screen and what to do next. Every room you go into utilizes a different game mechanic as the puzzle, though each room is solvable. The only negative to this game would be the playing time. Windosill offers one extremely interesting run through in under two hours with no replayability.

    Nevertheless, I strongly recommend this game to puzzle lovers everywhere. It's a fun afternoon wrapped in beautiful artwork and a fun time.    … Full Review »
