    Superliminal is a stimulatory puzzle game where you are being aided by a company to obtain better sleep and dreaming. As you progress it talks about you falling off of the orientation path. Starts initiating emergency procedures and you start receiving messages played on little boom boxes randomly located throughout the path and puzzles. All of the puzzles become a little more insane andSuperliminal is a stimulatory puzzle game where you are being aided by a company to obtain better sleep and dreaming. As you progress it talks about you falling off of the orientation path. Starts initiating emergency procedures and you start receiving messages played on little boom boxes randomly located throughout the path and puzzles. All of the puzzles become a little more insane and stimulating as you progress throughout the game. As you progress you’ll also receive random quotes of wisdom from the boom boxes as you progress through the emergency procedures attempting to exit the dream state you have been progressing through. Not everything is a straight path or solution sometimes you are required to literally run in circles so be prepared. Perspective is everything in solving these puzzles, so if you like to challenge yourself and stimulate your brain look no further than Superliminal for your Xbox One console. If your a fan of past experiences like Portal then you’ll be right at home in the genre.… Expand

    Superliminal is a satisfyingly trippy game. It deserved better pacing and level design. It was missing a plot to give the experience more weight. I'd like to have seen more made of the mechanics. But as a whole, it's a fun game and the puzzles are varied and surprising.

    What a masterpiece. Loved it. One of my favorite games ever. Clapped at the conclusion the same way I did in endgame part 2.

It is constantly changing its gameplay mechanics forcing the player to consistently think outside of the box. The atmosphere of this game made me feel like someone was watching me the whole time. It's unnerving and uncomfortable, but in a way that feels appropriate and unique. The levels and story are somewhat vague making most of the game ambiguous. This blends together nicely with the atmosphere and the ending. It almost feels like this game was made for me. I don't know many other games that do such a great job capturing the oddcore aesthetic quite like this one with its liminal spaces and whatnot. I could go on and on about this game, but the less you know before playing the better. Never have I ever played a game that blew my mind quite like this one.… Expand

    Superliminal is a simple yet complex perspective based puzzle-game. It has plenty of charm and aims to tell a simple finite narrative. It's a game that asks you to stick with it till the end and it will reward you for doing so.

    Game was way too short and repetitive, if you've played for 30 minutes you've pretty much played the whole game :/ good idea, but almost the whole game felt like a chore

    A really solid puzzle game, takes a great mechanic and really makes it work. The game will put a spin and twist on the main mechanic and it is enough to keep you guessing and refreshing until the end. Great voice acting too.

    C’est une sorte de jeu à énigmes à la Portal… mais sans portails à vrai dire. Et avec surtout des énigmes qui te cassent les couilles en cinq sec. Alors, aussi sec, on désinstalle cette daube et on se torche avec.

    Bref, inutile de tourner autour du pot, ça soûle direct cette grosse merde et c’est tout à fait normal à dire vrai : il ne s’agit que d’un étron indé après tout.

En vue subjective certes et moins vilain que la moyenne des étrons indés mais à 30 im/s seulement, y compris sur les nouvelles consoles. En outre, on sent que ça rame plus ou moins sensiblement, peut-être un souci de frame pacing ou plus vraisemblablement une implémentation du flou cinétique très mal implémentée.

    Et si c’est moins vilain que la moyenne des sous-produits indés, ça reste techniquement très faiblard, étonnamment crénelé (la résolution semble bien faible) et la direction artistique n’est pas très artistique pour tout dire. Pour ne pas dire de mauvais goût ou d’un manque de goût flagrant et regrettable.

    Bref, cet étron file la migraine et n’a aucun intérêt, sauf éventuellement pour les trouducs masos qui aiment se faire chier avec ce genre de merde, évidemment.    … Expand

    It has a large amount of innovation and creativity put into this game. For one, the mechanic of reshaping objects based on perception, makes the game feel as innovative and fun as portal was. A true enjoyable experience that made me want to 100% it. Truly a great game.

    Неплохая игра, чтобы пошевелить мозгами. Но даже близко не уровень серии игр portal. В начале было более менее интересно с оптическими илюзиями, кубизмом и т.д.

    Mediocre thrash metal that doesn't deserve such high ratings. I don't know how such a large number of players, in principle, can like such a talentless and negligent project.

Many things going on here are things I didn't ever think would be possible at all in this console generation but here we are. There is so much going on here that you really should get a next-gen console or high-end pc to play this on as there are frequent frame rate drops giving you headaches and loading screens that last so long they burn into your tv.

    Wait until you have a better way to play this before trying it on the Xbox One, but if that's not possible then for you then I'd say to give this a shot anyway.    … Expand

    Desde que conocí Portal me gustó este tipo de juegos Puzzle en 3D y veo en Superliminal una ida original y un buen uso de iluciones opticas e iluminación. Le pondría un 10/10 pero pienso que le falto optimización en el XBOX One S y los graficos podrian ser mejor. De todos modos un excelente juego.

    Juego bastante normalito de puzles, no entiendo que tenga tantísima nota por los usuarios. Es otro más, otro que juega con la perspectiva. Es corto y no muy difícil, cosa que se agradece porque parece la continuación de otros tantos juegos de puzles. Solo recomiendo jugarlo si te encanta el género

    Um bom jogo curto de puzzle com mecânicas de perspectivas inéditas, me lembrou um pouco de "Portal" e "Stanley Parable", sua mente irá explodir com tanta ilusão de ótica que esse jogo apresenta de forma criativa, se os puzzles fossem um pouco mais trabalhados e apresentassem uma dificuldade maior com certeza seria um dos jogos já feitos.

    Nota final: 8,2

It is a true spiritual experience by the end of it and is graphically intense and beautiful. It embeds concepts of perseverance, perspective shifting, and mental health in a way that is so natural and non contrived. As a psychology doctoral student, this game felt like a dream I had years ago of someone creating a game to actually change your life and create a positive influence through a fun means that doesn't even feel like you are creating change within yourself. It was frustrating at times of course, but isn't everything worth anything in life hard? A fun puzzle game with the added bonus of feeling like you read a self help or mindfulness book. I recommend this game to everyone. Kudos to the developers!… Expand

    I wouldn’t consider Superliminal to be a super challenging puzzle game yet it left me dumbfounded on a regular basis. Every couple of minutes it throws out a little trick, stopping me in my tracks for a second just for my brain process and re-calibrate. It’s only a few hours long but it’s densely packed with mind-bending goodness.

    Superliminal is a great puzzle experience, full of smart ideas that are richly realized. The game's playful use of the first-person camera and clever perspective manipulation puzzles take video game tropes and mechanics most players will be familiar with and wring something truly fresh out of them. Superliminal achieves its clear central aim--it offers up some genuinely fresh perspectives on what first-person puzzle games can do.
