    The word "Schein" means (among other things) "a glow" in German. And because makers of the game are united under the Austrian Zeppelin studios banner, it is not surprising that for this time a name of a studio is not just a jumble of pleasing letters, but it actually reveals the game even more – including the game's core mechanics.

    As a puzzle platformer it falls short the quality of Giana Sisters or Braid. But nonetheless it is an entertaining, albeit sometimes frustrating experience.

    The concept is original, even though the whole experience is not as polished as it should. It is recommended for those looking for a very challenging (sometimes frustrating) platforming and puzzle game.

    You can think this can become a good idea... but the result it's too much hard for the current players. Solve    Schein it's Braid + Meat Boy.
    You can think this can become a good idea... but the result it's too much hard for the current players. Solve puzzles while jumping platforms is insane in some parts of the game.
    A little short. I finish it in 9h with 850 deaths.    … Expand

    This is the case when the game, in general, is well done(about idea), but it did not work for me. Strongly viscous game-play. I played a lotThis is the case when the game, in general, is well done(about idea), but it did not work for me. Strongly viscous game-play. I played a lot of difficult games, including puzzle games, but I don't like this type. And I didn't like art-style of that game. But if you ask me if I can advice somebody to play it, my answer will be "yes". Try it for yourself, you might like it.… Expand
