    Another PS4 indie game. Surprisingly, this one is playable. That said, there are some wonky controls that make some of the puzzles into a test of your patience. You fail the same jump 15 times but you make it on the 16th and it appears you did nothing different.

    Graphics are average but some of the gameplay is fun. Worth playing if you get it while it's free on PSN+. Otherwise, try    Another PS4 indie game. Surprisingly, this one is playable.

    Game is utter trash. No story or dialogue to speak of. No direction or explanation of mechanics. I just wandered around these rooms not sure if I was going the right way, doing random puzzles solved through trial and error. All of a sudden I fight this boss. You have to go through multiple stages and guess what, its 1 hit kill and repeat entire fight. Oh and he takes up 90% of screen withGame is utter trash. No story or dialogue to speak of.

Oh and he takes up 90% of screen with a fire breath move, but you cant stay too far to right because theres a fire pit. So this means you must stay in this tiny sliver of area while moving on a conveyor belt with blocks coming down to push you. Oh and did i mention it ask all this but has floaty unresponsive movement and control of your character? So to give you a stupidly unfair fight with 1 hit kill and bad controls to do so....ultimate fail on all levels. Skip… Expand

    You’ll need to refresh your 8-bit platformer skills to survive the tower in Teslagrad, but doing so is well-worth the effort.

    What we have here is a well made 2D effort, and explorers who aren’t tired of the genre will enjoy this one for its silent storytelling and magnetic puzzle mechanics.

    If it had flawless platforming, reactive bosses, and a tighter difficulty curve, then we'd be head-over-heels for Teslagrad, but as it is, it's just a good little puzzle platformer that often frustrates. [Issue#253, p.66]
