    There is no Game es sorprendente. Esa es la palabra. 5 horas de cambio CONSTANTE en un género que tan poco daba de sí como lo es el de los point n' click.

    Este "juego" nos narra la historia de un desarrollador que estaba haciendo RPG-GPS, un GPS con mecánicas RPG y al borrar una parte de su juego, Mr. Glitch aparece para destruir el mundo y todo eso. En todas mis reviews, me fijo mucho en lo jugable. En esta, solo diré que no puedo decir mucho, ya que sorprende toda la parte mecánica, sus puzzles y como aprovecha el entorno. Usa muy bien la escasez de mecánica de un point n' click y hace cosas muy poco vistas y que sorprenden muchísimo.

    Aunque en lo que sí que me voy a extender es en su tan hilarante y tan bien escrita historia. Es una crítica a la industria del videojuego, y se nota, ya que añade muchísimos clichés típicos en videojuegos, cosa que hace al juego divertidísmo. El juego sabe mezclar momentos muy cómicos y momentos realmente trágicos. También rompe muchísimo la cuarta pared, ya que Game nos llama todo el rato Usuario, lo que nos da a entender que sabe quién somos. Además, en los menús se nota que hablan irónicamente con el jugador, para que haga lo contrario a lo que dice este.

    Y el final, no digo nada porque quiero que lo disfrutéis como yo lo he hecho, pero es una ida de olla espectacular y sin duda, la parte más original del juego.

    There is No Game no es para todo el mundo, pero sin duda, me ha parecido una experiencia como pocas en la industria del videojuego.    … Expand

    It was a nice little funny adventure/puzzle (Not a Game, haha). I'd definitely recommend picking it up on the next Steam sale. Took me around 6 hours to finish, so not very long.

    "There is no game" have a beatiful soundtrack, good level design and good mood, criativity is the strongest point of this game. but the part that i least liked repeated the last stage but with another approach, so you have the same stage 2/5 of the game´s time and the storyteller repeat a lot of the same phrases.

Most other games strive to last at least 30+ hours minimum, but this game is around 5-8 hours and it tells such a fun story in that time, and it just proves that not every game needs to be so long for someone to have a great time.

    [When i first heard about the hmm.. Game… there is no game. My first impression was that it was another thinking game like portal or whatnot. As it turns out, this was not the case.

    Well, first off the level design or in this case the scene design is fantastic and impressive.

    The Dialogue the game is putting out is damn right amusing, in a very positive way.
    I can't say there are many cutscenes in this game except at the final chapter with the camera toward “The Creator”, the only thing i had issues with was when the cutscenes were happening with “the creator” the audio got unsynced for some reason, but only in the cutscenes at the final chapter.
    Considering how the dialogue is, the voice acting is amazing and once again amusing.

    On the visuals, the graphics are fantastic on what it tries to be, and that is a lot of things at the same time.
    We got some puzzle type game sections, then we got thrown into a point and click with a gameplay style that resembles Day of the Tentacle's, we got an RPG that I can best describe as working similar to The Legend of Zelda.
    The Animations on all parts in this game feels smooth and looks fantastic.

    I experienced no bugs or performance issues of note during my playthrough of this game title.

    The Plot is amusing. The witty comments of the narrator and the reaction from the action of the user(YOU), make this game able to compete with the AAA titles when it comes to the plot.
    In fact, I can't think of any AAA games released in the past 3 years that have gotten me so engaged as this game did from the plot alone.
    The end was as amusing as the plot, if not even more.
    The character development of “The Game” The User and GiGi is well made, and clearly is a focus on this game. So I'm not surprised that Character Development has been focused on so heavily.

    Normally I would say the replayability is bad as there won't be any changes the 2nd time you play through it, but, the fun factor alone of playing this game is a reason to play this game once in a while. I myself have played this about 3 times in the last 2 days.

    I would absolutely recommend you to buy and play this game!]

    "9/10 – Fantastic.
    I enthusiastically recommend that you add these games to your to-play list.
    As it doesn't hit A Perfect Score, It is an extremely good game.
    I highly recommend getting this game."

    DON’T EVEN START THIS GAME WITH ME:
    The game starts rather simple way, making me to use in-game computer to start the game. The game has no name, not much of instruction are given, a voice is speaking; it’s the machine itself. He seems sad and try to tell me “there is no game“, pleading me just turn off the computer and stop even trying — and I did. I got an achievement for doing that! I    DON’T EVEN START THIS GAME WITH ME:
    The game starts rather simple way, making me to use in-game computer to start the game. The game has no name, not much of instruction are given, a voice is speaking; it’s the machine itself. He seems sad and try to tell me “there is no game“, pleading me just turn off the computer and stop even trying — and I did. I got an achievement for doing that! I launch the game again and I was ready to do anything to get the game going. So, I had to break the immersion and began to smash the UI (user interface) itself. After a while, I was fighting against the machine throwing traps and all kinds of shenanigns to my way, the machine gave up and started a game!

    There is no game: Wrong dimension is pretty much like that the whole gameplay; making me to fight my way through no matter what. I had to try to use everything I saw on my screen. The gameplay isn’t hard or complex, but trying to think and solve a situation by thinking it through from every percpective. Not just literally percpective, but also trying to break the dimension and think various ways like “if I would be in the game, what would I do”, “if I would be the computer where I’d hide this and that”. This jumping from a immersion to another is (probably) the hardest part of the game and I still wouldn’t say There is no game: Wrong dimension is a difficult game in any way.

    VOICE ACTED:
    The game is well voice acted and the sad machine talks a lot. It gives many useful hints, but I think it gives them a way too quickly. I always want to think the solution myself, before asking for help. The game includes HELP button and I only used it once. Only little nagging with the gameplay is the way usable items are collected. There is no item slots, all are simply drop to the bottom of the screen and used by dragging them, which isn’t bad at all.

    QUIT_THE_GAME.EXE:
    There is no game: Wrong dimension was SUCH FUN to play. For a long time I did like the humour written in the script of a video game. Even if the gameplay happened ONLY by using a mouse and left click, it changed such ways that I didn’t get bored. I played this one sitting about 8 hours (8.7h), which is very rare nowadays with me. To sit and play 8 hours straight, which tells a lot about the game’s entertainment level.

    I don’t believe There is no game: Wrong dimension is only for point&click lovers, because this is what I like to call something new. It includes different genres played with various ways. Great story and storytelling.

    You absolutely must check this one out :]

    Sometimes the puzzles come down to just clicking all over the place until you click the correct spot. Also, while the dialogue is great, towards the half point the main characters' reactions become very predictable and you know what they're going to say most of the times you do something, which can make the constant babble cause many eye-rolls and wanting you to skip further ahead.

    I'm also happy that the game develops the concept by also describing why Game doesn't want there to be a game. The direction the story took wasn't anything new, but how it told it was definitely unique and something I wasn't expecting from a game which prides itself on being meta and clever.
    But for $13 this game feels like it sold of $7 less than other games would give on retail without any of the qualities this game has.

    There Is No Game: Wrong Dimension takes the rulebook for what a game can and should do and sets it on fire, practically reinventing the entire medium in the process. Unceasingly hilarious, ludicrously entertaining, and utterly unique, it will remind you why you play games while forcing you to reconsider every aspect of what that means.
