This is a fun little fast-paced, chaotic PvP platformer. It reminds me of TowerFall which is a good thing. The game play feels tight but fluid and it's quite satisfying when you land a long-range hook shot on an enemy. Best played from the comfort of your couch with a few friends huddled around the TV.

I'm loving The Witness. It's a beautiful game, and challenges me in a way very different from just about any other puzzle game I can think of. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a brain teaser and something off the beaten path of modern games.

Now, for those that do pick up the game, I wanted to offer some tips but can't say too much because the process of discovery is a major part of the game, so here you go.

First, PAY ATTENTION. Everything on the island is intentional and there are lots of things you could easily miss if you're not paying attention. Every intricate detail can be important, or at the very least, is worth a second look.

Second, IF YOU GET STUCK, MOVE ON. Don't go looking up hints/solutions online every time you're having some difficulties. Due to the way the game is laid out you will not have all the information to solve every puzzle as soon as you come upon them. Even if you do have all the information you may not know exactly how to put it together to form a solution. In these situations just take a break from that puzzle/area and move to the next. Come back later and try again.

Along those same lines, EXPLORE. There's much to do and see and learn by exploring and the beauty of the island only increases with every new discovery.

Lastly, ENJOY THE JOURNEY. There is an "end" in the conventional sense but in my opinion the majority of the fun comes from the journey itself. Take your time. Don't worry about what's next or what's at the end. Simply appreciate what is.

KR0 is a point and click adventure game with a very chill and relaxing vibe. You can just sit back and absorb it after work or before you go to bed. Though, to be honest, calling it just a game falls a bit short. KR0 is really more of an experience than just a game. You'll really find yourself taking in the atmosphere and feeling for the characters and story. If you haven't already, I highly recommend picking up a copy for yourself, you wont regret it, plus, we still have Act V to look forward to.

Broken Age delivers the classic point and click adventure enjoyment you're used to in a modern, good looking, well written story.

After spending over 5000 hours in this game over 10 years I have nothing but good things to say about this game. It's full of fun competitive action and with the a few major updates every year it's always got something new to enjoy.
