Closure's puzzle design is new, unique, and absolutely brilliant. The story is told without you ever reading anything or any voice acting. The music and art style is extremely moody and creepy in an almost Tim Burton-esque way, but still has plenty of it's own personality. Highly reccomended for it's top notch atmosphere and genious puzzle design. Solving the puzzles always feels rewarding. I cannot complement the developers enough on this masterpiece.

This game has a unique aesthetic combined with a novel game mechanic. The multi-legged shape-shifting protagonist uses light to manipulate the game world. Whatever is not illuminated does not exist. The levels build on this mechanic and become increasingly complex as the player works through the challenge of completing the game.

Some levels (at least for me) are fairly challenging while others will seem straight forward, but I suspect different gamers will find a varying level of challenge on the same levels. i.e. What is a piece of cake for me might be a bear for you and vice versa.

I've played this game for about 8 hours over a few days and am closing in on completing it. Hoping to achieve 100% completion. The game has fascinated me and left me wanting to get back and see what new creative challenge the next level holds.

The fear of the dark is one of the most common phobias. But how many people really fear the dark, and not just the real or imagined threats it conceals? Certainly anyone who plays Closure, Eyebrow Interactive's wickedly creative indie game. In Closure's world, only what is visible exists-- step on a shadow and you'll fall right off the screen. To light a path through each level, the player must learn to use various arrangements of fixed, rotating, or portable light sources.

This is two-dimensional platforming like you've never seen before. Carry lamps to preserve the solid ground beneath you. Divide walls into stepping stones by lighting them in segments. Free trapped objects by temporarily eliminating obstructions from reality. Even across 72 levels, these inventive puzzles never fail to surprise.

Closure's spooky, greyscale style perfectly matches its central theme of light and shadow. Artist Jon Schubbe is responsible for the hallucinatory environments, which range from underground mines to deserted carnivals; Chris Rhyne provides the unearthly music and sound effects; and programmer Tyler Glaiel ties it all together. With no unnecessary parts, this game is an articulate, memorable experience.

The player takes control of three human characters throughout the game, each with their own backstory that is left open to interpretation. The player can also travel to the “hub world,” a land of doors occupied by an arachnid creature with horns and a hollow face, who gives access to the human protagonists. The difficulty ramps up smoothly when the levels are played in consecutive order, but if you get stuck in one world, you can use the hub world to jump to another.

Gamers exhausted by the frantic pace of many games will find relief in the methodical progression of Closure. No time limits or point scores here-- not even a Heads-Up Display. The game clearly wants you to share the unhurried pace of the protagonists as you explore their environments. Before proceeding through a level, it is sometimes necessary to study the paths taken by meandering globes of light, which I found to be a relaxing, almost meditative experience. If you're feeling impulsive, however, a fast respawn speed lets you experiment without punishment.

With Closure, Eyebrow Interactive proves that a game built around a single gameplay mechanic can offer not only an absorbing experience, but a re-playable one as well. To reach the game's many collectable items, players are often required to devise entirely new solutions to familiar puzzles. This results in a more sophisticated difficulty scale than traditional “easy” or “hard” modes, as players can choose their difficulty mid-level. That said, some of the later levels are mind-boggling. But a good challenge is healthy, and in a market saturated with mindless button-mashers, it is good to see a game that encourages thoughtfulness.

TL;DR -- Cool concept with a haunting aesthetic; smart puzzles that award creative solutions.

Closure is an excellent monochrome puzzle game in which you mostly deal with light and darkness.It's fresh and has quite challenging puzzles.You will feel a sense of accoplishment each time you manage to beat a puzzle and its truly enjoyable.You won't be frustrated if you get stuck in a puzzle as after finishing it you will realize that the solution was right there.Brilliant Game 4/5

The shadow is your best friend and also your worst enemy.

Closure by Eyebrow Interactive is a creative platformer that revolves around the manipulation of light to solve very tricky levels shrouded in darkness. As you can only touch and interact with things that you can only see. You play as a four legged alien creature who is exploring the through the minds of three human beings. With each unique and level represents some if their thoughts. If you're a fan of limbo you’ll love this game.

Closure could be easily be compared to the game LIMBO as they share many great characteristics, but both still unique in their own ways. The mysterious and dark way this story is portrayed is one of its great characteristic of the game. With the complete lack of dialogue the story is told within each level as these puzzles represents something in the minds of these three characters. This way of storytelling is what really got me to feel some emotion within these puzzles. And with a amazing gloomy, mysterious soundtrack who needs dialogue.

The puzzles of Closure are very, extremely, painfully, mind bogglingly difficult. OK maybe I’m over exaggerating some levels become a cake walk once you get the idea of the puzzle down. Although, because of how hard these puzzles are I lost major appeal to the game. I never completed the game 100 percent as without a guide these puzzles could take a long while to complete.
