  • Abstract:  Once in a while, a game comes along that makes you remember why we love this interactive medium. A game that pushes at the boundaries of what videogaming can achieve. A game that is such a self-contained vision, that it takes you on a journey which tra...

  • Abstract:  We’re all guilty of succumbing to misjudgments based on first impressions, in fact it’s a natural instinct. Indie developer Jonathan Blow’s Braid is a game that’s initial allure lies in its calming water colour imagery and serene soundtrack, lulling yo...

  • Abstract:  Braid first appeared on Microsofts online store for the Xbox 360 last year, before making its way to PCs. You wont find a physical CD version on the shelves of your local high street shops, but many of the big-name game download sites are currently s...

  • Abstract:  I was told not to submit this review unless I had something different to say. Braid has already received tons of awards and critical acclaim, after all. But I do have something different to say: Braid is an amazing example of how game design can go in ...

  • Abstract:  Braid fits in the latter category. It is, simply put, a game that needs to be experienced. If you had to define it, you’d use the words “puzzle platformer” – you run, jump and solve puzzles to reach a goal, only to solve more puzzles. But it’s more...

  Published: 2008-08-21, review by: gamezone.com

  • Abstract:  Because the game mechanics are so thoughtfully integrated into the story, Braid’s meaning can only be understood by playing it. And while it might be visually unassuming, Braid offers players an experience (and a message about life) that few games have...

  Published: 2008-08-19, review by: gaming-age.com

  • Abstract:  At first glance it's easy to dismiss Braid as a simple platformer with a gimmick, reversing time to escape death in a similar vein to what Prince of Persia: Sands of Time used a few years back. However, the time manipulation in Braid goes much further ...
