+ Loading times are faster.
+ Animals in GTAO.
+ Didn't have issues migrating my characters.

- Text chat has been removed.
- Visually barely different as the original game, worse in some parts. Fires look better.
- Graphics settings became a mess.
- The reason it exists is to sell GTA+ to PC players.
- Seems more unstable.
- Could have been an update instead of a separate game.

Nice little chiller. Challenging or relaxing depending on your gamemode.

Good game, bit repetitive, great with mods.

Pretty chill game with simplistic look.

A must-play for any Half Life fans. This right here is worthy of being called Episode 3.

I love everything about this, except maybe the fact that it was too short. It can be done in less than 30 minutes. Faithful to the Portal universe.
Good launch title for Steam Deck, even if I played it on PC (controller required). It runs extremely smoothly on my part.

POSITIVE
_Good visuals.
_Good music.

NEGATIVE
_Physics. Cars handle strangely when you hit something. You can easily compare it to GTA IV car physics.
_The idea of changing your car's color with a pickup to use one of the three boost lanes should have been improved. It serves almost no purpose.
_Same remark for the handbrake. You can't drift and if you try, you lose control.

Where do I start ? I love everything about this game.

Music : dope ! Great 80s feeling, catchy songs. I bought the soundtrack.

Graphisms : Gorgeous ! Retro 2D environments. Each zone has its own feeling and ambiance. Explosions that make your screen shake, making bits of concrete, glass or fleshy parts fly around. Very satisfying to shoot, kill and burn.

Gameplay : intense ! Things can get messy fast. Better attack from a distance instead of going head-on with only a pistol. Boss battles are challenging and took me several tries. Always frustrating when you get killed when the boss only has a little health left but I overcome it.

5 Pretty environments that don't distract you while you play.
The rules are simples : align 3 or more tiles of the same icon to cover between 60% and 70% (depending on difficulty) of the tiles with your color. While doing this, an ability charges up. It allows you to drop a bomb on any tile. It colors this tile and the adjacent ones with your color while destroying the icons, making the tiles above fall.
Playing on the same board as another player (AI or real player) is a nice twist leading to unforeseen movements of the tiles. The AI has 3 difficulty settings. Sometimes it doesn't do anything for 10 seconds then does several combos in rapid successions.
This is a good game to play casually every day, like I do.

I've been following this game since I saw it on Steam Greelight. Then lost track of it and found it back a while before its release. I've been pretty excited to try it.
But...
Despite it's nice visuals, it runs poorly and I'm not the only one in this case.
Additionally, the default keyboard setting is QWERTY and there's no way to change it to AZERTY in the game.
I wanted to enjoy this game but I had to refund it.
