Short and simple puzzle game included in Game Pass. It takes less than 2 hours to complete, no guide needed. It looks beautiful and it has some of those "Aha!" moments that I love in puzzle games. I didn't feel engaged by the narrative, but it's a good game overall.

Just as I'm writing this I noticed that it was also available on iPad, which seems like the best way to play it, honestly. Give it a try!

While I enjoyed Gorogoa, I can't say I loved it. I recall playing the demo in 2012 and being super excited. It's beautiful, and I enjoyed the somber tone, and overall puzzle design. It's just that the puzzles themselves didn't resonate with me. It wasn't particularly difficult, but with a lot of them I didn't get that "aha!" moment that …

It's just that the puzzles themselves didn't resonate with me. It wasn't particularly difficult, but with a lot of them I didn't get that "aha!" moment that the Portal devs spoke about. I got the "Oh, you could click that?" moment instead. A lot of them felt hollow as a result. I didn't feel like I solved them because of my own skill, but rather because I experimented enough. Which, I guess, in this game IS the skill. Again, it's not bad at all. Short (which at this point in my life I love), and worth a play if you like puzzle games. It's just not the knockout I had hoped it'd be.

I ordered this from iam8bit a year ago, but it was tied up with my Kentucky Route Zero preorder, so it has been a long painful wait.

I'm still undecided how I feel about this game. It's really cool, but I find the controls obtuse.
I suspect it plays better on larger screens. Currently not recommended on mobile.

Great unique puzzle game on the iPad. Gets wonderfully complex and interesting in the last two big puzzles before the final one as it plays with perspective in really cool ways. A real “a-ha! moment” type of game without entering frustrating or overly long territory. I feel dumb for letting it sit in the backlog for so long, but better …

If you like puzzle type games with a bit of a Monument Valley vibe about them then I can really recommend Gorogoa. It’s not very long (a couple of hours maybe), but that can be a good thing, quality over quantity etc. It plays very well on an iPad, which in my opinion adds to the chill-out factor. It took …

It’s not very long (a couple of hours maybe), but that can be a good thing, quality over quantity etc. It plays very well on an iPad, which in my opinion adds to the chill-out factor. It took the developer 6 years to make it and it’s clear that it’s a real labour of love.
