    Life can be so boring sometimes. This game is just one of the games that contribute to this. Believe me it's not worth the money.

Certain puzzles will drive you insane not because they are hard but because you can't see where certain pipes are going or what direction they are going in making an easy puzzle very hard and tedious lowering the overall score. A lot of puzzles are great and some are tricky . There is basically two games in this game and if you get the ps4/ps5 copy you can platinum it twice. (Improvements for this game grappling hook, some combat and more manipulation of cubes , more manipulation of portals and using duplicate scenes in other ways such as a way to duplicate cubes by freezing sections or duplicates allowing different states to copies next to each other for example.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. A great game for those looking for a really innovative puzzler. The game uses a unique blend of color, direction, and gravity. I had no prior knowldge of the game when I started playing. The first time I fell off of a ledge I expected to die but I was quickly surprised to realize that this was a mechanic of the game and immediately fell in love with it. I was really impressed at the pace of adding additional complexity and increasing the difficulty. I never felt stuck for too long on any puzzle and always felt a great sense of accomplishment when I did figure it out. On top of a really great game, the art direction is so distinct and interesting. I am sure the comparison has been made elsewhere, but at times I felt like I was wondering through and Esher drawing. The sense of scale and distance was really impressive.… Expand

    Manifold Garden sure took its time to reach us, but the wait has been worth it. This is a beautiful puzzle game that stretches your spatial reasoning, but not immensely so. The difficulty could have been increased, but designing and then developing these complex spaces that loop forever was no doubt a huge challenge on its own. Play Manifold Garden to engage your brain in a different method of thinking. While short, completing this puzzler will give you an immense feeling of satisfaction, and it is well worth the $19.99 asking price. Get ready to think with relativity.
