Review title of Thug 4 Hire0Impacted in just the right way!

This game uses a unique control scheme to reinforce the short, but powerful narrative. The controls can take some getting used to. As such, it's recommended you finish the game in one sitting for 'maximum effect'. For some, the games weaving of controls and story just won't 'click' and they'll end up disregarding it. For others, this game will be an emotional journey through a gorgeously crafted fantasy world and serve as strong evidence of Video Games' incredible potential as a medium for storytelling. Don't you owe yourself that kind of experience?

Review title of Minecart FamilyHands down one of the best games I have ever played !

Hands down one of the best action / puzzle style games I have ever played. When this game was originally available on gold I played it to 100% completion. I loved it. It has been a couple years since I played it again, and honestly I still think about how well done this game was. The controls are a dream. I love the way they made the controls, it was perfect. Well designed from every point. The game had a beautiful and touching storyline, amazing graphics, and fun gameplay. This game was a perfect balance of difficulty and fun. I love that the game was not too hard, or too easy. To date this is one of the most balanced games I have ever played. The developers did amazing on virtually everything in this game. The only thing I wished playing this game, was that there was another game like it to play after. I hope this company is working on another game like this. This one was amazing. Rarely do I see games like this, and having played thousands of games I say A+ on this. Well done.

Review title of CRYPTO STEELLRestart Chapter 2 If You Encounter Troll Glitch

I encountered the notable Troll Glitch on Chapter 2. Restarting from the last check point will not fix this problem. Restarting Chapter 2 usually solves this issue. Some players might have to restart Chapter 2 twice, usually no more than that.

This game has been so much fun to play. It has brought me and my fiance closer together. It was her first video game and I'm glad it was this one. the experience we had playing was not just beautiful and majestic it was heartbreaking and gory. We can not wait to play more games that you make.

Review title of cart00nstripYou know from the beginning you're in for a heartbreak

But you won't care. Unless you're bipolar, like me; and you gird yourself. This is really a game that should be completed in one sitting. In fact, you'll just about be an expert with the novel control scheme when the game says its good-bye. There's this one spot in the game where, in the space of about a minute you go from spellbinding awe, to delight, to relief, to crushing sadness so quick it almost feels like a jump scare. In almost every moment, a new surprise awaits; whether it's a new vista, a new creature, something beautiful, something horrid - it's a very visual videogame if that makes any kind of sense. It's near the end when you're in the middle of doing something you NEVER thought you'd ever do in a game, when you realize something truly great and meaningful happened here. Something unforgettable. You'll feel a lot of things playing "Brothers", and you'll be all the better for it. Yes, it's art.

Review title of ExtraBrisketWorth Enjoying

I played Brothers through Xbox Game Pass. After playing A Way Out, I was curious about Brothers, being Josef Fares first game. At first, I genuinely was only going to play the game as a pallate cleanse/easy achievement game. A chapter or two in, found myself very hooked on the game. The game has very little repetition, which is saying something given that you pretty much only use four buttons on the controller. Some things feel a little clunky, and it’d be cool if the game was a little longer, but over all, I would say it’s a 4/5 or “great” in my review scale.

I am a 34 year old man and this game had me in tears. It's a great game! The controls take some getting used to but nothing crazy. If you want something unique and with meaning try this. Especially if you have a brother you're close to.

Review title of Cracked GoddessBrilliant story and innovative gameplay

The controls are a little weird and frustrating at first but they are fine once you get used to them. The story and innovative gameplay make it totally worth taking the time to learn the controls.

Review title of Fake FlabiesHighly Recommend

I owned this game on PC first, but have always played it using an Xbox controller. The controller is a must for smooth gameplay. Brothers is still one of my favorite games, with its highly effective storytelling and atmosphere, along with its interesting game mechanics. You play as a pair of brothers on an adventure to find a cure for their dying father. You are in total control of each brother simultaneously, solving puzzles that require teamwork, skill, and trust. A must play if you love a good, impactful story.
