    Toby: The Secret Mine is reminiscent of games like Limbo or Inside. Although the game has very few controls to to use, the gameplay does not suffer from this minimalism one bit. Although the ability to pause the game at any given time is a plus, it won’t alleviate the inevitable frustration from dying over a thousand times before you can finally reach the end. We applaud the developersToby: The Secret Mine is reminiscent of games like Limbo or Inside.

Although the ability to pause the game at any given time is a plus, it won’t alleviate the inevitable frustration from dying over a thousand times before you can finally reach the end. We applaud the developers for doing a good job with level design, which will test your memory over and over – and then utilize your memory skills against you in order to mix it up from time to time. We also appreciate the soundtrack with a "dungeon diving" feel to it. For the full review, head on over to our website.… Expand

    Toby: The Secret Mine is a challenging but beautiful game that borrows many things from games such as LIMBO or Badlands, but it achieves to craft its own style. We will die so many times until we realize the suitable path, but the result is worth it.

    A platform game developed by Lukas Navratil Games that at first sight stands out for its artistic and visual effects, this remind us other titles such as Limbo. The Limbo's resemblance is implanted in all aspects of the game and is a good title to generate achievements on your Gamertag and enjoy an entertaining and different story. The only negative point is the duration of the game.

    Toby: The Secret Mine is a somber experience executed using a visually stunning setting. Most of the puzzles are an experience in exploration and intelligence. Unfortunately, the technical issues keep it from being the masterpiece it could be. A truly great game is hidden underneath all the frustrating problems.
