5.0 out of 5 stars What if our world worked differently? We could remove the damage but still be wiser from the experience., April 11, 2010
= Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Braid (CD-ROM)
"Braid is a platform game in a painterly style that uses time manipulation to solve puzzles."

Move, climb, jump, and time-travel. The art is beautiful, and with the soundtrack, pulls you into fantasy world were everything is simple and beautiful and nothing is what it seems.

As you travel through more and more doors you must use some skill and a lot of wits to capture puzzle pieces. With the tenacity of a scientist you try new approaches, and repeat failures a hundred times until the truth unravels for you.

Parallel to your efforts, the story of Tim and the Princess unfolds, where Tim asks questions we all ask, and tries to achieve what we all want: understanding.

But so much is Uncertain. So much is subjective.

Braid is all about perspective, assumptions, and breaking the rules of both.

***

This game is amazing, beautiful, and emotional. Buy it, and play the demo while it's in the mail.

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfectly made puzzle game, May 21, 2010
= Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Braid (CD-ROM)
This game is loaded with mind-bending, rip-your-hair-out phenomenal puzzles, but you never get completely stuck, since you can simply walk from one end of a level to another and come back to try again at any time. Beautiful game art and music complete the atmosphere.

One of the few games where I actually felt smarter after playing it. Highly, highly recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the best indy games I've ever played, December 28, 2011
= Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Braid (CD-ROM)
Jonathan Blow (the creator) impresses in this puzzle masterpiece which revolves around time manipulation to collect puzzle pieces. Some of the challenges are quite difficult and require a fairly high degree of problem solving ability and creativity. This game really forces you to think hard at times and the analytical and problem solving skills are geared more toward a mature, intellectually developed audience (too difficult for young kids).

While I respect others' opinions, I discount the negative reviews that complained that you have to think too much in playing this game because I found the challenges to be the best part. If you want a mindless game this is the wrong genre. If you get stuck there are always walk-throughs on YouTube. It's also interesting to note that there's not always one unique solution to each problem.

This game boasts a vague but intriguing story line. Very impressive for an indy game.
