It's been a long time since I found a seriously addictive arcade-style game. I have to reset that counter now, as Intake very much fills that spot. Yes, it's nearly a decade old. No, that doesn't matter. Plenty of steam achievements (I have 28 of 77 as of writing), lots of upgrades to power-ups, and that always just-out-of-reach feeling to keep drawing you back. These elements combine with deceptively simple controls to present an awesome challenge. I heartily recommend Intake. I can't put it own.

88 / 100 As the saying goes 'Perfection is achieved, not when there is nothing more to add, but when there is nothing left to take away.' This is personified in Intake with its super simple yet challenging, pill popping gameplay. Intake takes some practice to master; it's a true test of your reflexes & mouse control skills. Music (although limited) keeps the adrenaline pumping & the graphics look great! Hard not to become hooked as you hunt for your perfect run to Level 100. Very addictive :) http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=193390647 { No Commentary - Straight Gameplay! } Here is some gameplay footage without any hype so you can make up your own mind if its something you might like. More fun in playing than spectating though :) Be sure to adjust your mouse cursor speed to get the maximum control and highest scores! If your cursor is too fast (or slow) by default the game becomes crazy hard and is not enjoyable.

Neon colors. Dubstep. Pills. Flashes. Bangs. Booms. Coin-up look and feel. Excellent game. Intake it's a rare gem, every single part of it in harmony with the rest, making this game an instant thumbs up. Gameplay is excellent, either you use keyboard or mouse: simple controls for quick, non-stop action. Graphics are sharp and bright colored and the interface is, for a lack of a better word in my limited vocabulary, classy. Sound effects are great and contribute to generate a really immersive experience. And the game's soundtrack it's glorious, making the game unique and memorable. The coin-up theme it's another plus, even more if you used to play arcade machines with the level of addictiveness and replayability that this game has. Let me tell it on more concrete terms: this game it's a good purchase for ten bucks (even if you can get it for one). That's high praise coming from me. Well done Cipher Prime, I hope you keep making awesome games in the future.

I wasn't sure about this game, but now I'm absolutely in love. It's almost pure gameplay, and at that the game excels. It's a lot of fun and has surprising variety thanks to a system of unlocks. It's also just challenging enough, which gives it nigh-infinite replayability. Definitely one of the hidden gems.
