Aparentemente simple por jugar con cuadrados y tener unas mecánicas simples, pero la forma de construir la historia, hablar sobre las emociones, inseguridades, personalidades, etc., son geniales. Es un recurso que está bien empleado, y que además es normal que los juegos indies utilicen, ya que un juego no es mejor o peor por tener mejores gráficos, sino por lo pulido y detallado que está en todos sus apartados.… Expand

   This game was such a joy to play and great narrating by Danny Wallace, if it wasn't for him this game wouldn't be as good as he gave the boxes life.

   A roller Coaster of Emotion
   Thomas Was Alone is a puzzle platforming game
   The first half of the game really tugs on your heart strings as characters are being introduced,
   As youre getting smacked with real life metaphors, it just punches your right in the gut, but after the initial introductions the narration and story feels stale, leaving you with only the experience of the games world
   Disappointingly though there isn’t too much to experience.
   The main objective to the game is to get each character to their shaped portal, you do this by simple platforming and team work.
   There are the occasional really neat levels, but for the most part they are bland, colorless, boring, and offer no challenge.
   I was flying through most of the game, it got really boring and tedious fast.
   The only thing that kept me going was my love for the story, I cared about these squares and rectangles,
   You are introduced to 7 initial characters that each have their own mechanic to them such as inversion, doubles jumps, and floating.. All feeling equally important to the overall level progression.
   But as I said earlier the story gets out of hand and feels jumbled by the 6th world out of 10.
   I was hoping it would pick back up again, but they felt the urge to introduce even more characters rather than give a satisfying ending or conclusion for the previous characters.
   There are 100 levels in total in Thomas was alone, 2 collectibles in each of the 10 worlds to find, and a cute story and idea,
   Id recommend a play through only to experience the narrative, who knows you may appreciate the 2nd half of the game, I personally didn’t
   There isn’t much actual game here though, no risk, no reward.
   You can get through most levels on aggressive instinct rather than sitting back and thinking.
   For what it is
   Puzzle Platformer 7/10
   Overall: 7.5/10… Expand

   Quirky indie title that strips the platforming genre down to its bare bones. It's not much to look at - the characters are literally a bunchQuirky indie title that strips the platforming genre down to its bare bones. It's not much to look at - the characters are literally a bunch of coloured squares and rectangles - but the puzzles are well thought out and the amusing narration that's like a cross between a children's book and a programmer's in-joke has a Black Mirror-esque vibe to it. The very old school vibe won't be to every taste but to those who click with it, it has a rather unique charm.… Expand

   Unfortunately the only thing that keeps this game from being an utter bore is the charming narrarator. You'll spend the first couple levelsUnfortunately the only thing that keeps this game from being an utter bore is the charming narrarator. You'll spend the first couple levels hurrying through feeling interested in the story but really its just a craving for entertainment. The "puzzles" (levels) can be mastered by my dog and many of them are tedious and extremely repetitive. You'll get a shape all the way across a map just to do it 3 more times with the other shapes.
   The story which has been called "beautiful" is actually quite forgettable. I found myself ahutting off the game only because i couldnt rush through another slog of 5 pieces fast enough.
   The graphics are nice (for pixels) and the game feels solid (though jumping can feel a little late) but overall this game will only be remembered for its first level where the narrator says "Thomas Was Alone." Thats my favorite part.… Expand
