    Just finished the game. It is pleasantly challenging, if you grew up having a super nintendo, with castlevania and super metroid, you will probably like this one too. The only thing that bothers me is that it is a bit short.

    The creator of this game has a beautiful mind, and some serious sadistic tendencies. Ruthlessly hard, and mockingly unforgiving, but clever, fun and worthwhile.

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

    Enjoyed this game very much.
    Interesting way of story telling: you'll see pieces of the story played by puppets in a "theater chambers" while moving to the top of the tower. Do not expect something breathtaking though - just a typical platformer plot.

    Teslagrad offers unusual game mechanics in its puzzle part. To move objects or even yourself you should choose one of two energy types (blue or red) which will charge the objects creating a magnetic field or a repellent effect - depends on how platforms in a chamber are charged.
    Some puzzles are really challenging and so are every boss especially the final one.
    About difficulty: it's not that easy. If compare Teslagrad with Steamworld Dig, the first one is much more difficult. So if you don't like dying a lot then stay away.
    Art work is nothing special but looks good.
    All in all this is a good platformer. It does not pretend to be unique, just wants to entertain you for some hours.    … Expand

    Excellent platformer. Charming and beautifully hand drawn environments. Challenging puzzles. The physics/controls can be a little tough to get used to throughout the game, but a player with a high platforming skill level may adapt quicker than I did. If you don't hit Wikipedia for info on the game before hand the narrative may seem fairly vague. Even towards the end of the game I stillExcellent platformer.

If you don't hit Wikipedia for info on the game before hand the narrative may seem fairly vague. Even towards the end of the game I still wasn't sure what I was trying to achieve. However, the environments are rich with imagery, alluding to the overall theme. You may do better with the narrative with a history degree or an interest in Nikola Tesla. Minor issues aside, this is a fantastic game and well worth the cost. I got myself a physical copy for the PS4, which I was happy to find since most indie titles are download only. I would ignore the users who gave this game an extremely low rating (looking at you fandango89). If you don't like small indie titles full of challenging puzzles and unique imagery, go play Call of Duty and don't review this game. What's the point of trashing a game from a genre you are not fond of? This is the same reason I would never review a Gears of War or GTA game. I'm sure they are great.. just not my thing.… Expand

    It is a beautiful indie with some challenge. Of course it's a good game! In an ordinary way, indies with challenges must be ugly as hell. Bosses, trophies - everithing is interesting to conquer and even a bit hard too. There is a pleasure to explore this very nice and cute game.

    Honestly to all the people giving this game a negative rating because it's supposedly so difficult; GROW A PAIR. My 8 year old beat the first boss under 15 min of trying. I would suggest that you stay away from Dark Souls because that will make you pee you pants if you find this game "difficult"

    This game is beautiful visually and the gameplay fun. It's a great puzzler.

    Captivating history, beautiful graphics, intelligent mechanics and the desire to always want to play more and more to learn more about the game universe....this defines what Teslagrad is. A great indie game, and another great metroidvania for those who enjoy the style.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. ✅CAMPANHA/HISTÓRIA
    ➡️ acompanhamos as aventuras de um jovem órfão que, por conta do cerco ao Reino de Elektropia, foge da ameaça do rei tirano que governa seu povo com mãos de ferro, correndo para a Torre Tesla, antigo larde uma seita de magos tecnológicos conhecidos como Teslamancers.
    Dentro deste misterioso e perigoso ambiente esquecido, precisaremos sobreviver aos quebra-cabeças e utilizar as ferramentas que encontrarmos pelo caminho, para chegarmos ao topo da torre e encontrarmos maneiras de utilizarmos a arte da Teslamancia para derrotar o rei tirano.

    ✅GRÁFICOS/DESEMPENHO
    ➡️ em comparação ao jogo de 2013, a versão remasterizada trouxe gráficos melhorados, com cenários feitos a mão com uma clareza ainda mais estonteante, com iluminação atmosférica e animações mais suaves.

    ➡️o desempenho do jogo é até que bom. Dificilmente tivemos algum problema com legs ou bugs. O jogo flui muito bem.

    ✅GAMEPLAY / JOGABILIDADE
    ➡️ A versão remasterizada conseguiu trabalhar muito bem as melhorias para uma jogabilidade fluida e menos punitiva na obrigatoriedade em realizarmos movimentos precisos. Pular em pontos exatos ou a necessidade em usar o cenário está menos “detalhista”, melhorando os diversos momentos de frustração que o jogo possuía.

    Agora ficou mais rápido ultrapassar diversos obstáculos, principalmente em grandes cenários, sem se preocupar muito na precisão do seu pulo ou em como o magnetismo vai agir, com um hitbox mais “coringa” para que os seus movimentos sejam contínuos e o jogo ainda mais prazeroso de ser jogado.
    Quebra-cabeças complexos! - Desafie sua noção de lógica para manipular de forma inteligente o mundo usando a eletricidade e o magnetismo. Sobreviver aos perigos da Torre Tesla não será fácil!

    • Explore! - Abra caminho por um ambiente rico, desenhado em 2D enquanto se aventura pela Torre Tesla, obtendo e dominando novos itens e habilidades pelo caminho.

    • Narrativa Visual! – Um conto esquecido se desenrola nesta abordagem narrativa única. Nada de diálogos, cenas de cortes, textos, telas de carregamento ou interrupções. O mundo fala por si!

    • Steampunk movido a vapor! - Descubra uma interpretação distópica, impressionante, chuvosa e cerebral da antiga Europa pelas lentes do steampunk.

    ✅ TRILHA SONORA/ LOCALIZADA PT-BR 100%
    ➡️ Áudio Remasterizado! – Viva um mix eclético de orquestra clássica com inspiração russa temperado com vários toques de metal e música eletrônica.
    É possível sentir a tensão das cenas isso é bem bacana porque temos a sensação de imersão total no jogo. Um exemplo quando enfrentamos os boss.
    ✅ PONTOS POSITIVOS
    ➡️ Gráficos desenhados a mão com muito capricho
    ➡️ Áudio Remasterizado.
    ➡️ Estilo carismático e uma proposta de gameplay diferente
    ✅ PONTOS NEGATIVOS
    ➡️ Jogo é extremamente difícil
    ➡️ é bem curto
    ➡️não trouxe nenhum novo modo de jogo ou desafio
    ✅ CONCLUSÃO
    Teslagrad Remastered é um ótimo jogo para quem gosta de um bom desafio e quebrar a cabeça para passar as fases. Mas não recomendamos para aquelas pessoas que não tem muta paciência e querem algo, mais “fácil”.
    Como já dito antes o jogo é curto tendo duração de aproximadamente 5 horas. Então se fosse gosta de desafios e quer tentar algo diferente esse jogo é uma boa pedida.

    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]
