    Why boring games likes this get extremely high metascore, i just don't get it. There's hardly any talent behind this game.

    This game does indeed touch me at a soul level with it's perfect ambience and art and mood, however the puzzles get so absolutely ridiculous that barely anyone completes this game without looking up a guide. This is not a good puzzle game, it has an exponential difficulty spike that is unintuitive and seldom even hinted at.

    Fez is a very easy-going experience for the most part, but it is also very capable of presenting a diabolical challenge to anyone looking for one. The descent to an otherworldly nightmare glitch-world is something that is not often done in video games, yet it makes a lot of sense; especially for something that focuses on a theme of perception and dimension. While the creator of Fez may have his issues, his game has very few and is very pleasant to play.

    With its exquisite, beautiful game world and its still fresh and ingenious gameplay mechanics, FEZ is a marvelous puzzle platformer and one which will undoubtedly remain a timeless classic ten more years from now.

    Despite its age, Fez manages to feel as entertaining and relevant as it ever was — it’s a puzzle-platformer that expertly hides a deep level of difficulty behind a surface layer of relaxing action, beautiful music and attractive graphics. While there are no new features of note on this Switch port, what’s here is still as scrumptious and inviting as it ever was.
