    This original hand drawn puzzle-platformer will not make things easy for you, but the charm is in the challenge. The dynamic magnet mechanics keep the game interesting all the way through. It can be hard to stay motivated, as the tiniest decision can make you fall down many stories, meaning you have to walk back the whole darn way.

    Teslagrad is a visually gorgeous game, with clever puzzles and an interesting new game plus mode, held back by problematic platforming and difficulty spikes.

    With stunning presentation, and a clever core mechanic, Teslagrad does a lot to impress. Unfortunately, its occasionally unwieldy controls, inconsistent difficulty, and needlessly challenging boss fights mar the experience. However, if you can look past these infidelities, you’ll find an incredibly unique and often satisfying puzzle platformer.

The puzzles never get too frustrating, but the bosses on the other hand are infuriatingly frustrating. Going through the same sequence over and over is just torture after awhile. Its a shame, because I was really enjoying the puzzle platforming parts.… Full Review »

    Loses a point from me for the boss battle music grating as you die over and over again.    … Full Review »

    Currently free on PS+ its worth giving a try but it has too many issues for me to wholeheartedly recommend this to anyone.    … Full Review »
