    Ultimately, this is an artistic game first and foremost, and the puzzles are the medium in which players participate in the story. It is bittersweet and real, rooted in cultural significance. I fully expect this game to be snapped up by trophy collectors looking for an easy platinum, but I sincerely hope that everyone who purchases Arrog appreciates the experience as much as I. If you have a few dollars burning a hole in your PSN wallet, consider using them to pick up Arrog. I really want to see more from Hermanos Magia in the future.

    An enjoyable game with a clearly defined style, pleasing audio and satisfying puzzles. However, it's also incredibly short and offers no incentive to replay. Sitting very firmly in a niche category, Arrog will appeal to few, but if this kind of game is your bag then give it a go, if only once.

    For example, there is one section near the beginning in which you just drag lines onto another line for several minutes. I'm not joking. No fail state, no context, no enjoyment. Just moving white lines on a black background.

    "But it's artistic!" - the game Journey was artistic AND fun, same with countless others. Whereas Arrog is just cheap and soulless.

    This was short, but till it lasted it was sweet! I recommend to any artful soul to just sit back, max the volume and enjoy Arrog. It may notThis was short, but till it lasted it was sweet! I recommend to any artful soul to just sit back, max the volume and enjoy Arrog. It may not provide any satisfactory ending, but with its price there isn’t a better escape for you in these troubled times. Full Review »
