    I had this in my PS4 watchlist forever and then my Switch and I thought it's on sale, it'll be great, give it a whirl and see what the craic is. Damn boring is what it is. It was instantly dislikeable. It felt like a complete mismatch of everything, like nothing went together at all.

I love music and this games music got raved about.. it was a bit crap, the art style was lame, the whole scenario was lame, I just hated it and deleted it and glad to say I got it in the sale.

    The art is good, the gameplay is engaging, and the puzzles are good. Had some issues with glitches and lagging. I think I would have been happier with this game if it were a touch shorter, because I got bored with it several times before finishing it. I also ended up using walkthroughs more than I would have liked. The voice acting and music were good, and the game does look good.

    In the long run, I imagine it’ll be those nightmarish enemies I remember about Figment, not the so-so puzzles and combat. As a game, I could basically take Figment or leave it. But as an experience — as a surreal musical that explores some pretty dark places — Figment is definitely different than almost anything else out there.

    Figment is an adventure game that proposes something unusual but not any less topical and relevant: how to deal with depression. With that in mind, the game presents a series of very attractive-looking hand-drawn sets that come to life during the game and a dynamic soundtrack that follows the players during the puzzle-solving duties. While the game's combats feel too simple and the puzzles are somewhat repetitive, this is without a doubt a very good approach to a complex theme and which will appeal to fans of adventure and puzzle games alike.

    Even with its simplicity, Figment is a good game that becomes an excellent recommendation to children or young adults. With its beautiful visuals and fairy-tale like storytelling, it is a great combination that makes its public smile.
