    Hilarious and empowering, even if it is frustrating at times, Human: Fall Flat is definitely worth at least one play through.

    Human Fall Flat is a funny puzzle game. The puzzles are diverse and complex, but not too tough. Don't play too much at once though, because Human Fall Flat can become a bit boring.

    Silly, smart, and rewarding, all at once. [July 2016, p.85]

    I laughed along with Human: Fall Flat much more than I’ve done so with a game for a very long time. By putting a little more finesse and care into building the parameters of its goofy concept, it’s far more enjoyable than your average “Gabe Newell Physician Simulator 5000” found on the daily sales page of Steam, making this purchase well worth its slightly steeper asking price.

    Human: Fall Flat seems like the kind of game that was conceived at a party where someone asked “what would it be like to control a character who’s already drunk?” Unfortunately, the game falls a wee bit short in terms of depth and gameplay.

    Human: Fall Flat enthusiastically proclaims its commitment to unscripted creativity, but in reality, it’s reading from the teleprompter. As a linear puzzle game, this is an enjoyable experience, but it offers little of what makes physics-based games enticing.

    Human: Fall Flat has some good moments but it is let down by its own premise. Wonky controls become a nagging frustration and there is little reward for playing alone. Add a second player and things get more interesting. This is best picked up if you are a budding streamer or fancy some couch coop. Otherwise, like the title suggests, it just falls flat.

    A unique, challenging, puppeteer puzzle platformer that tests your patience and persistence. You have to be in the right mood to play thisA unique, challenging, puppeteer puzzle platformer that tests your patience and persistence. You have to be in the right mood to play this game solo because of the inherent frustration of the gameplay. If played solo, I give the game a rating of 7. If you play this co op, it's a lot more fun and one of my favorite co op puzzle games I played with a friend. Watching your character and your partner's character move around just looks hilarious. There was a part in the game where my friend and I were laughing so hard and could not stop because of the ridiculousness of the game. If they released an expansion or sequel to this game with co op, I'd def. play it. Also, it would be cool if they made a versus mode where you had to compete against others of who can complete the puzzles first.
    Update: I'm raising my score from an 8 to a 10 because they released a bunch of new free levels and features. Also, I'm going through the game a second time and it's just as much fun or even more fun. One of my favorite co op games now. I hope they will continue to support this game.

    Human Fall Flat is far from perfect, but the humorous physics, (mostly) simple puzzles, and multiple paths to a single goal are the savingHuman Fall Flat is far from perfect, but the humorous physics, (mostly) simple puzzles, and multiple paths to a single goal are the saving graces of this game. The gameplay controls are simple. While they may be wonky, they are explained well through the use of instructional videos found throughout your journey. (Don’t worry, they’re not hard to find). The puzzles were mostly simple and required little more than common sense, and the multiple paths that you can take to reach your goal helps ease frustration of not knowing the solution to a puzzle. The only exception to this is the final level, which was both fun and frustrating at the same time, due to the wonky controls working against its favor for some of the puzzles requiring more precision, in which, the game can have a hard time properly executing. Apart from that, the puzzles are simple, quirky, and fun. Another positive aspect is the trophy list, which seems a bit strange because nowadays, most platinums are either grindfests or easy platinums you can obtain without really trying. I loved obtaining the platinum trophy for Human Fall Flat because it encouraged me to try different paths, or do different activities. Some examples being for me to journey to a lighthouse and lighting it up at the top, exploring a cave and collecting all of its riches, being a pigeon and standing on the head of a statue, riding a dumpster, doing public service by throwing away trash, or riding a zipline. These trophies are simple activities that I genuinely enjoyed undertaking and helped the replayability a lot. Overall, while Human Fall Flat may not be perfect in multiple aspects, the saving graces make it a unique game worth a playthrough weather done alone, or preferably, with friends. Expand

    An unique way to play puzzles. Fun but little bit hard to control your character.

    Human Fall Flat is creative, innovative, and hilarious, but awkward controls keep me from recommending it. The final 2 levels took me hoursHuman Fall Flat is creative, innovative, and hilarious, but awkward controls keep me from recommending it. The final 2 levels took me hours and hours to complete -- not because the puzzles were difficult to solve; they were quite simple -- but because I couldn't get my human to do what I wanted him to. This game is a test of patience and your own sanity as you fight the infuriatingly frustrating controls. I'd imagine the game would be more forgiving with friends, but I couldn't even play online with my friends like is possible in the PC version. I do not recommend as a single player game. Expand
