    Unravel es probablemente uno de los juegos más bonitos que me he echado a la cara. Se trata de un hermoso plataformas en el que encarnamos a un ovillo de lana antropomórfico, que debe avanzar por una serie de niveles, ayudándose del propio hilo del que está formado para trepar, engancharse a piezas con las que resolver puzzles y llegar al final de la fase, mientras recolecta los recuerdosUnravel es probablemente uno de los juegos más bonitos que me he echado a la cara. Se trata de un hermoso plataformas en el que encarnamos a un ovillo de lana antropomórfico, que debe avanzar por una serie de niveles, ayudándose del propio hilo del que está formado para trepar, engancharse a piezas con las que resolver puzzles y llegar al final de la fase, mientras recolecta los recuerdos de la gente que habitó o pasó tiempo en esos escenarios. Nuestro personaje es el hilo conductor de la propia historia, que no es más que un collage de recuerdos de gente anónima enfrentándose o disfrutando de la propia cotidianeidad de la vida.

    El principal fuerte del juego son los gráficos. Son hiperrealistas y hacen que el juego tenga un acabado muy hermoso. Por otra parte tenemos un control simple, con mecánicas sencillas, muy orientado a las físicas de los objetos con los que interactuamos. Finalmente tenemos la dificultad. Unravel no es un juego fácil. Moriremos muchas veces intentando resolver los problemas a los que nos veremos enfrentados. El juego te pedirá paciencia y calma para terminarlo

    En definitiva Unravel es un juego para amantes de los indies hermosos y con ganas de no jugar siempre a lo mismo. Recomendado

    Unravel 是一款视觉上引人注目且发自内心的游戏,如果不是眼泪,它会让你的喉咙打结。

    优点: - 视觉上令人惊叹。在每个新的关卡上,每一个新的关卡,我只需要停下来一分钟,然后简单地接受它。游戏非常华丽,让 Yarny 带着我感觉的惊奇环顾四周是一个很棒的触感。 - 优秀的音乐。那些小提琴会撕裂... 扩大

    Śliczna, wymagająca i chwytająca za serce gra z bardzo ważnym przesłaniem. Yarny jest bardzo uroczą postacią. Rozgrywka zaskakuje zagadkami i poziomiem trudnośc

    The platforming itself is a little stiff and clunky, but the gorgeous environments, beautiful music, and subtle yet strong storytelling make up for it.

    Stunning game. What a beautifully crafted experience from a small Swedish studio. There is so much creativity and care packed into this game. I love it.

    Unravel ist ein narrativer Puzzle Plattformer im Stile eines Inside oder des phänomenalen GRIS.

Der besondere Clou des Spielprinzips - als wandelndes Garnknäul, können wir uns mit Hilfe von Garnfäden über Abhänge schwingen, Wände hinaufklettern, oder Trampline spannen, um uns auf höhere Plattformen zu katapultieren. Spielmechanisch toll "eingefädelt", lernen wir immer neue Optionen kennen und puzzeln uns so von Bildschirm zu Bildschirm. Dabei begleiten uns die Bilder und Episoden einer Familiengeschichte. Durchaus berührend erzählt, spannen diese einen Bogen übe das kleine Abenteuer, das wir erleben dürfen. Allerdings muss man sagen, dass das Leveldesign dabei nicht ganz die Qualität eines Inside oder GRIS erreicht. Mich persönlich catched auch die Grundidee weniger als das dystopische Setting eines Inside, oder die Melancholie eines GRIS. Dennoch ist Unravel ein gelungener Puzzle-Plattformer, der sich hinter den Erstgenannten nicht verstecken muss. Expand

    A fun experience and relaxed gameplay make this game a good choice for when you need to play something more slow and chill. I really liked the puzzles even tho sometimes the controls made it harder than it really is. I really recommend this.

    This small indie title presents a charming nostalgic story through a puzzle platformer. The themes and narrative of Unravel do a great job of conveying the vision of the development studio. However the platforming doesn't feel great and some of the puzzles have a design that cannot be solved after the first attempt.

    2021 e eu resolvi jogar Unravel, o jogo me surpreendeu positivamente, seu andamento é simples mas muito divertido e gratificante jogar, tem alguns puzzels e desafios bem divertidos e seu clima artístico e atmosfera fazem bem aos olhos juntamente com o sistema de áudio e efeitos sonoros tornam a experiência como um todo bem satisfatória.

    I thought this game was fantastic. The story is a little open ended and really leaves the player to interpret what it all means but I think that is the point since it revolves around family and growing up with the good times and the bad, it leaves the player reminded of his or her own personal memories about family and in some respects makes you want to reconnect with your siblings orI thought this game was fantastic.

    A fun and beautiful game. And it has one of the best endings ever. It makes you nostalgic after completing it. Even though I played many games, Unravel is in my top 10. Perhaps top 5.

    Unravel is a wonderful puzzle-platformer with a lovable main character called Yarny. It is very Nintendo-esque while still managing to be very unique in its own way.

The story is open to interpretation but is essentially about the journey of life and how we should cherish the memories we gather as time goes on. It's a beautiful concept and is portrayed excellently.

    There are a few puzzles that require a bit too much lateral thinking (as opposed to logical). And the platforming whilst good, isn't as pixel perfect as some would like but these 2 minor points don't take away from the fact that this game is one of the greatest hidden gems this generation. I would recommend to all.

    A beautiful looking 2d puzzle side scroller. I played this through with my girlfriend who's not the biggest of gamers, but we both really enjoyed it. The last time I played a 2d game would've been on the Sega Megadrive, and didn't think they'd hold up to other games by today's standards.

I picked this up on sale as heard a good review on it, and because my misses had never played a 2d side scroller before. So I figured we could take turns running through it together. Maybe get her into gaming some more by playing easier style of game and the kind of game that got me started all of those years ago. Got it for her, enjoyed it for me! Now I've purchased Unravel 2 for so we can play through it at the same time, and now it's got me looking into other 2d games that maybe up until now I've overlooked! I highly recommend this game, even if it can be frustrating at times if you get stuck. I didn't just enjoy this through some sort of nostalgic reason, but because it is a bloody good game! Expand

    A platform-puzzler with real heart, Unravel makes up for mechanical shortcomings with a world as palpable as it is pretty. It's no classic, but it's a memorable journey all the same. [Apr 2016, p.90]

    I spent a very long time trying to come up with a reason to mark Unravel down as a game but I just… can’t! Really, I can’t think of one negative thing to say about it. From the visuals to the audio, the smooth and responsive gameplay (and lack of glitches) to the touching story/message; there is nothing wrong with this game. Honestly, if you even slightly enjoy puzzle or platformer games, even slightly, buy Unravel. Do it.
