Link to review: https://backloggd.com/u/RedBackLoggd/review/2250586/ Tl;dr - Kalimba is a wonderful surprise. If you’re at all a fan of this genre, you owe it to yourself to buy this game at some point in time. Link to The Dark Void DLC review: https://backloggd.com/u/RedBackLoggd/review/2250588/ Tl;dr - If you enjoyed base Kalimba, you may be nettled by the changes here; and if you disliked it, these facets will only add to your fury. It’s definitely an eye-catcher though!

Very good game. My favourite 2d platformer. Perfect for steamdeck.

May 2024

A lot of people seem to be buying this game solely for co-op. If you are one of those people, don't bother. This is one of the most criminally underrated and unknown puzzle platformers out there. It is incredibly well polished, has a wonderfully creative art style, and has one of the best soundtracks I've ever heard. The singleplayer campaign is 30 levels that are about 3 to 5 minutes long each, and the dark void campaign is another 10 extra challenging levels. A little disappointed that the end of dark void isn't its own boss unlike the end of each world in the main campaign, but it's still pretty good nonetheless. Its cooperative gameplay feels pretty good, but the main campaign is only 10 levels, and the cooperative dark void is another 10 on top of that. Also, good luck 100%ing this game, if that's what you're after. You'll need it.

May 2024

Incredible game design on this title. Solving the platforming puzzles feels very satisfying. The game requires quick thinking and snappy responses from the player. Two potential negatives: - My controller works fine on PC, but does not work on the Steam Link. Other players have reported controller issues and the keyboard controls are not ideal and cannot be changed. - This is a single-player game, the co-op campaign is a short extra. This may be misleading to some. There is a lot of attention to detail, in the menus and environments, but also in the animations and sound effects. Good music, too. The game is cheap when on sale. Definite recommendation if you are into this genre, or if you are interested in clever, challenging game design. It's a hidden gem. P.S. game is hard

April 2024

It's a unique puzzle platformer where you can only move, jump, and swap characters, but it's enough to make very interesting puzzles and situations. Also it's not so difficult to drop before finishing. Co-op mode also looks curious, and worth to try. The only problem is broken controller support, but custom layouts in Steam can help with that.
