    Unrelentingly simple and yet uncontrollably addictive, Absolute Drift is a comfort game in every sense of the term.

    Often contrasting a white background with bright block objects, there could not have been a better mix for a game all about avoiding things.

    Walks the fine line between being unbearably frustrating and incredibly good fun to play.

With that said, for a $12.00 game, i feel i am more than getting my money's worth.… Full Review »
