I heard good things and thought it would be up my "control" centered preference, but ended up feeling like mostly random mouse movement until something worked.

I enjoy good pixel graphics and the story was decent, but it didn't meet the hype. A bit too linear while allowing "exploration" which just led to wasting time. Gameplay didn't grab me.

Interesting puzzle game with a cool style.

Funny game that makes you think outside the box about how to achieve the goals.

Great 2D stealth game that allows, and even suggests, you to beat levels in different ways.

Keeps you wanting to play to get the next upgrade and see the next area. Exploration is not required, but is rewarded.

Pulling off amazing level long combos is very satisfying. That ability to quickly restart levels encourages you to push the limit.

Even if you didn't grow up with in the era this game is styled after it is a pleasure to play.

Crazy amount of items that result in awesome synergies. Worth multiple play throughs for different endings.

Even if you don't care about the "Lovecraftian" vibe it is a fast paced game that allows for different playstyles.
