    Machinarium is a successful adventure game. It's recommended to any player, be she a fan of the genre or not.

    Its puzzles are logical enough that they're never cheap or frustrating, but challenging and varied enough that they're rewarding. A charming and brilliantly designed point and click adventure; if anything, it's over too soon.

    For fans of the genre Machinarium is a welcome addition. If you are a Playstation Plus member then there is literally no reason not to give this unique (if a little short) experience a try. For non Playstation Plus members the £6.49 shouldn't break the bank, however if you are a fan of Point-and-Clicks then searching the game out on Steam may be cheaper and in the end will make it more of the experience that it was clearly intended to be.

Puzzles can be a bit frustrating, but there's an excellent set of help features to prevent prolonged head-scratching. The game's length is a bit short (about 4-6 hours), but what's there is tightly designed and well-paced. There's really very little to gripe about with this game. Machinarium is a small wonder, a fantastic adventure with a quiet, emotional core. Well worth anyone's time.… Full Review »
