April 2025

This review also includes the Remastered version. I have played both individually, both NG and NG+, so I can confirm that writing the same review for both games is totally valid since they are the same game. The game is awesome. I met it at AGDQ 2016 but for reasons I couldn't play it until now, and the game is as good as I remembered. Lots of smart and carefully crafted puzzles. The movement is so great and fun that lowkey makes me want to speedrun it. The story of the game is great (and I've played Teslagrad 2 so I know it gets deep later) but the best thing about it is how it's delivered, a perfec example of "Show don't tell". The art is amazing, and you can say that the remastered version is better at that, but this game's art is already great, and that comes from someone who isn't a big fan of the steam punk and old Europe style, but damn, the artists here know what they're doing. There are 36 scroll to collect, only 15 are needed to finish the game but you need the 36 for the best ending. Collecting all scroll isn't hard tbh, the hard part is to find them all. Some scrolls are really well hidden, and while it can be frustrating to find them, once you find them you realize that the location is actually smart and fair, they aren't random at all (like the Strawberries in Celeste) and it adds to the fun. The map is a tower and there is a simple way to go all the way up and down, which you'll need if you missed a scroll before the ending. I think the lenght of the game is good enough. I can finish the game in 2-3hs tops now that I know where everything is, but my first playthrough took me aprox 14-15hs in three days. If I had to say bad or at least not excellent things of the game, the first two boss fights are kinda meh, I would say those are the lowest points of the game. The map is a big tower and at the beginning you explore the tower's entire base, but as you play the game and go up you realize that there are massive blank spaces never visites, so I felt it a little dissapointing. Also with the map, there are some rooms that makes you feel like there must be something else to do there, but just there isn't (I'm looking at you gigantic electric golden bull!). Funny enough, I could say the same "bad things" for Teslagrad 2. Overall, I absolutely loved this game from beginning to end. It's now on my top 5 favorite games ever. 10/10 would recommend. Go give a hug to your dad.

Nov. 2024

The perpetual unity and segregation of positive and negative electrons will make this game attractive to platform gamers of all ages. The trailer really pulled me in but what sticks with you the most is the compelling story, drawing you closer to a an electrically charged finale. Polar opposites to games I usually play but I really enjoyed it. It also has magnets and stuff.

Aug. 2024

Great game! I got to the end in about 5 hours, and got 100% (including alternate ending) by 9 hours total time. Progression is mostly linear, but there are secrets hidden throughout that you can only get by coming back with all abilities unlocked. Nice balance of puzzles and platforming. Some parts were a bit difficult and took quite a bit of repetition for me to get through, since any mistake often means you need to restart the room (thankfully it usually doesn't set you back too far when you die). If you like Hollow Knight, you'll probably like Teslagrad

July 2024

I played this game entirely by my keyboard, so sometimes I need to press so many keys simultaneously to pass through a level, so mistakes happen frequently and the result of the key combo is beyond my control and quite the opposite of my expectations sometimes. Maybe using a controller will be better. The electromagnetic mechanism is intriguing, it actually makes me realize how to use the natural force to solve problems. And the boss fight is TOO challenging, but after too many times' experiment, I found that I only need more patience to enjoy this game. Don't know if I can collect all the achievement, because for now I have already found 2 that are (almost) impossible for me to achieve. The art style is also very unique, a great game overall.

July 2024

A great old puzzle action platformer, puzzles are rather simple but the quick time action elements make it quite challenging. Also the physics of polar forces can be frustrating at time, not to mention you only have 1HP. Would rate this 7/10 worth a try.
