    There Is No Game is a small indie game exploding with spunk, character, and originality. The game play is challenging and unique, and the storyline is unexpected and quirky. It reminds me of the PC games I played as a child in the 90s/00s, yet it pushes farther to create something completely new. I can't wait to see what this developer comes out with next!

    Ein Spiel, welches für mich alles abgedeckt hat. Es macht spaß, ich hab viel gelacht, mich gefreut und war sogar mal traurig. Der Humor trifft meinen und es ist ein sehr erfrischendes Spiel. Schade ist nur dass es auch mal zu Ende ist aber einen für ne schmale Mark 5 bis 8 Stunden unterhält.

Draw me a pixel went all-out on this, and it shows. there are plenty of little details, for example, if you go to the pause menu, the biggest button is "go back to the menu" but there are some downsides to this wonderful game. The point and click part of this game is a bit hard to control (I played this on the Nintendo switch) if not played in handheld mode. If you cast it up to a TV, the controls become slow and a bit hard to use. For example, (Spoilers!) in the RPG part of the game where you have to shrink the barrels to get the bomb to the pile of rocks, it is near impossible when playing it with a controller. But in handheld mode (which will drastically change speedrunning for the game btw,) you can do it with a lot of precision and ease. So overall, even with the eh controls, this game is a goddamn masterpiece. 10 out of 10.… Expand

    A short, but very fun game. It's a perfect fit to play before decide to compromise to a longer game, especially if you are a fan of classic 90's point & click games (or not games). This one has the best of it, but with a very imaginative twist.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. A puzzle game that can be completed quickly. Okay being short might be bad for some and the endings do kind of leave things open. But the puzzles a nice you will occasionally get stuck despite knowing what to do as you might overlook a small detail. The voice acting is great, the story is great. The humor is slightly recycled from the original and it is one of those times I would say don't play the first one at all as then the dialogue is better. There is a red herring here and there which is good. The only downside of this game is needing to know how old phones dialed in numbers. The other annoyance is grabbing fast things.… Expand

    Very solid and interesting game. Lots of funny mechanics and clever story ideas. Main plot is really interesting and engaging. There is a lot of unexpected moments and quite a few that will live longer in our memories after the end.

    I really enjoyed my playthrough of this! I'm not a big fan of Point and Click Adventures, but this game had such good reviews that I decided to pick it up on sale. The playing experience is seamless from start to finish. The narrative is humorous and witty and the plot is engaging.

I did appreciate the help feature for the few occasions when I got temporarily stuck, but most of the puzzles are well designed and there are some really memorable and original moments dotted throughout the game. Two things have held me back giving this game a higher score. (1) It only took me 6 hours to play through, which is a bit short, and (2) at full price I feel this game is a bit expensive for what it is. I may come back to this and play through it again in a year or two, but there is no incentive to revisit this title before then as much of it's appeal is derived from its novelty value. This is certainly worth picking up when it is on sale! I'm really glad to have had the experience of playing through this game!… Expand

    There is no game: wrong dimension might seem too short for some people, but it is still worth it. This "non-game" makes fun of a lot of stuff in the gaming industry and is pretty funny. You will have to often think outside the box to solve the puzzles you meet. Overall, this game is amazing and i definitely recommend it for anyone that is into indie games.

    this is probably rated as one of the best games on the switch purely because of markiplier's endorsement. it doesn't look too bad, but at 3 hours and with little to no replay value despite the number of easter eggs, it is really not worth the exorbitant prices being charged for it.

    i remember the creator posting some content on newgrounds years ago, and its cool to see indie devs being successful, but there is no reason why this needs to be rated higher than much higher quality games like disco elysium, ace attorney, and Shin megami tensei V to name just a few which were notably ranked just below this. even KOTOR, a 20 year old game cheaply ported to the console, deserves more credit than there is no game does.    … Expand

    A hilarious point-and-click presented seamlessly, There Is No Game parodies a cavalcade of video game genres in its futile attempt to stop you from playing even one. Fans of absurd, paradoxical humour will get a kick out of this one.

    Every now and then, a game comes along that just absolutely blows up your expectations. There Is No Game: Wrong Dimension is one such game. Superb design, excellent voice acting, with a surprisingly moving story, it’s an undeniably endearing and unique experience.

    So what is this interactive story that I've been throwing my thumbs at, attempting to guide its fate while being exposed to cracks in the wall that separates its reality from mine? Is it an absurdly smart commentary of video games, a bonkers adventure to watch unfold, a slice of creativity rarely seen in the industry? Is it an experience that has to be felt to be understood, thanks to its talkative AI and whimsical approach? Whatever it is, one thing is for certain: There is no game.
