    A serene, quietly uplifting afternoon's entertainment for urban explorers and platform fans alike.
  2. The Pedestrian is surprising and astonishing and delighting, it’s true. But for about the first hour and the last. Still, in complete fairness, that does add up to about half of the total play time – and 50% surprising and delighting is pretty good going.

    It’s this aspect that makes The Pedestrian great. It treats almost every puzzle not just as something to be solved, but a way to teach you to be better at play and understand the game. It provides this sense of improvement and progress that isn’t just tied to where you are in the game. Instead, it feels as though you spent a few hours exercising your brain as if you had taken it to the gym.

This 2D-3D feel follow you for the all game. Transitions between levels also is so good. About puzzles - something near normal. It is interesting, but not amazing. I can say that I like the Pedestrian for special feeling and say thanks for all emotions that it gave me. Full Review »

The puzzles are simple and it seems like they have put all their effort into make it look pretty than making a decent game. I must say the 10/10 reviews on here are remarkably suspect. If this is a 10/10 game then what is BOTW? Full Review »
