Arise: A Simple Story
Super Mario 3D World, if everything weren’t cats, they removed the Wii U gamepad, and wasn’t Super Mario 3D world
Random title cause I felt like it. I’m not sure on whether to give a ‘recommended’ or ‘not recommended’ for this game, cause it’s a 50/50 split between aspects of this game that I liked, and the ones that infuriated me.
Pros:
-
The Level Designs are amazing. Most games with a persistent time-switching mechanic only have 2 versions of the same map that show the past and the future, and pressing a button transports you to one or the other, but this game lets you slowly see the polygons shift whilst giving you the feeling of manually seeking and rewinding time like it’s a tape recorder. While most puzzles require you to only go back and forth between 2 points in time and freeze it, some puzzles
! (like the rolling boulder or the falling log in level 3) have you constantaneously scrub time and walk at the same time.

## Now you can't see me
Cool puzzle(!) game with unique set of gameplay mechanics. After completing the game you can play again in speedrun mode with world leaderboard. Thinking out a faster way to complete a level reveals the possibilites of the game a little more and is also pretty fun.

On one hand super interesting, on the other hand you have to read tips from the menu screen constantly to understand just the controls, and aiming while blinking is just ridiculous. Maybe if I simply point at someone with a gun it works, rather than pointing at the gun while I'm blinking and if I mess it up have to spend 5 more minutes trying the same thing despite knowing how to solve the puzzle.

## Quantum Conundrum
### Many people say this game seems like Portal.
Well, if they mean it looks like a physics-based first-person puzzle-platformer then yes, it is like Portal. The difference is that you manipulate the physics of the level rather than where you enter and exit the 'test chamber'.
There are 5 dimensions you can change between to alter the physics.
* Fluffy dimension makes everything that's not nailed down light enough to pick up.
* Heavy is the reverse, nothing can be picked up.
* Time slows everything down, including light beams.

Rating : 8/10
Overview: 1st person puzzle platformer
The Good:
+ The game allows you to switch between 4 different dimensions to solve puzzles and traverse the environment. The first dimension is 'fluffy' dimension, which makes objects lighter allowing you to carry them and place them on switches. The second, is heavy dimension, which makes objects heavier, the third is slow time and the fourth is reverse gravity. You can only be in one dimension at a time.
+ The game offers a mix of puzzles and platforming. Some areas are strictly related to one or the other while other areas combine the two. It provides a nice change in pace as you are not strictly doing one thing over and over again.
