    Beautiful levels with equally beautiful story, characters, and music come together to form one amazing puzzle adventure. Niko: Through The Dream is easily one of the best first-person puzzle games I've played, and a strong contender for my game of the year.

    Niko: Through the Dream is a good puzzle adventure that has made us enjoy by the beauty of their surroundings and the design of many of its puzzles.

    Niko is an experimental title, which relies primarily on exploring – actual game is set aside. However, when an action or logical sequences come to place true problems occur: low difficulty and flat puzzles, poor controls and imbalance of the individual elements.

Its puzzles aren't basic, they're complex, very interesting and funny. The game has been designed perfectly to make the puzzles fit on every level in such a way that the game is telling a story without actually narrating it. Really impressive. One of the best indie games I've ever played. I strongly recommend it. Full Review »
