Do you remember that very hot summer day, when u climb hill close to a city just to watch the sunset and enjoy the view. Yeah, FEZ feels like that, it kinda inspired me to learn how to ride a bike, just so I could climb the mountains around my house and enjoy the views. So my review of the game would be described in 2 words "Warm" and "Inspiring". If u want more in detail review, I am sure u can find one in here.

Fez would be close to my favourite game of all time, it's not often that you come across something, that resonates with you to the degree that it has with me. To me playing it is an experience, I would place it in a similar category to Outer Wilds, Hollow Knight & Elden Ring amongst others. Every so often a game comes along where the final result is greater than the sum of it parts. At it's heart the game primarily revolves around puzzles, within the framework of a platform game. However, the platforming elements are purely a means of traversal, there are no enemies to fight, nor can you die. The focus is primarily on the puzzles, they range from fairly simple early on to nigh on impossible to do on your own in the endgame. I think that the sort of people who would only look to a guide as a last resort, are the ones who will get the most out of it here. The major aspect of the gameplay loop, the perspective shifting is difficult to explain, but one of the most brilliant concepts I have come across. The z-axis only exists whilst perspective shifting, watch a video or try the demo available on various platforms, once you begin to grasp some of the finer implications it's a thing of beauty. A simple but vibrant and charming art style, the characters (especially the player, Gomez) have many subtle but very expressive ways of conveying emotion and I can't help but be drawn in. I would also say that the soundtrack is one my favourites of all time, quite chill & melancholy in general, with happy & darker undertones at times, to me it really conveys the experience of exploring on your own, the loneliness of being amongst the very few who are aware of the true nature of the world. It's definitely not a game for everybody, but when it clicks, I don't have words, if you know, you know.

Sept. 2024

The passion of the developers to creatively push the boundaries in unique game design still holds up today. In addition, FEZ continued to one-up itself in delivering unique and interesting puzzles and constantly making the player shift their perspective. Multiple layers allow the player to experience as much of the main game, collectibles, and secrets as they want however they want. There are good achievements, no missables, and is excellent for those who enjoy completion. Some of the final puzzles are quite difficult without assistance, and some large portions of the game can be easily missed, but this does not detract from the overall experience.

Aug. 2024

FEZ is overall a great time. It throws you in a hyperdimensional world with the task of gathering collectables scattered around the map. How you will be doing that is mostly up to yourself to figure out. It should come with a warning though. Even 12 years after the game's release there are still some puzzles that are unsolved. The solutions have been brute-forced by the community. You can 100% the game without these.

Loved this game. Phil Fish got done a bit dirty. Wish he could have conducted himself better but this game only makes me wonder what more we could have seen from him. Still, for his only title it's nothing short of a masterpiece.
