    While this game is certainly good, it is not at all a "great" game. For what it is, it is an appealing, if easy, puzzle game. I would recommend it to younger gamers, though anyone could sit down and enjoy the game.

For what it is, it is an appealing, if easy, puzzle game. I would recommend it to younger gamers, though anyone could sit down and enjoy the game. However, this is not an indie game that ranks with the likes of Braid, Limbo or Super Meat Boy, who were able to pull off games that were incredible by any standard, not just "great, for an indie developer" or even "great, for the price". If we lower the standards for inexpensive games or indie games, then we cheapen our critical measures. In Short- Good, not great, a little too easy.… Expand

    There's fun somewhere in this game, but it hides beneath the highly inconsistent mechanics and physics. The result is a completely frustrating experience.

    This game is light hearted and fun. Great for both a quick little play or a long gaming session. With its ability to cross genres and generations this game has something to offer all.

    Suitable for any age of gamer, Doc Clock insists on being one of the most fun adventure-platforming games of 2010. With unique and puzzling physics elements, easy to use controls and very interesting and innovative graphics, all combined with great humour from a cynical robot, gamers could do far worse than to spend the cheap amount developers have requested for Doc Clock.

    Puzzley adventure game with some platforming and nuts mechanics. It's enjoyable but not fantastic. If you want to play a humorous mad scientist game then yeah, you could certainly do worse.

    A good concept, but so poorly executed that it's not worth playing. Physics based puzzles with inconsistent physics and interrupted by unusable controls. Seems to be aimed toward children, but I imagine they'd find it too frustrating to stick with. Poor graphics. Almost no appeal. Worth avoiding even for free.

    An idea, no matter how fresh and original, doesn't worth squat without a good implementation. Doc Clock is a prime example of that. The construction mechanics are too awkward, and the game does nothing to encourage our creative thinking.

    Doc Clock is a decent game with some frustrating parts due to the camera and wonky movement.

    Even if someone paid you $10 to play this game, don't. Refer them to the nearest asylum instead. If you still choose to accept, reserve a cell for yourself too, and start shopping for a straightjacket.
