I'm terrible at puzzles and had to use a walkthrough for more than I'd like to admit. But it was a delightful little game in a little world, and I'm glad I sat down to finally finish it.

I finally played this because its leaving game pass. I always avoided it because its always on sale for cheap and that usually means bad? but this is a wonderful fun different Point and click adventure game. Super pleased

Ok, let's add Machinarium to the list of games with audio-only puzzles.

I appreciate that this is a10-year-old game, but still today you see this kind of stuff. This needs to stop.

With my laptop sent away to be repaired, I decided to look into my Android games backlog. I had bough Machinarium a while ago and gave it a chance.

With my laptop sent away to be repaired, I decided to look into my Android games backlog. I had bough Machinarium a while ago and gave it a chance.

I'm not a huge fan of point-and-click adventure games, but this one looks nice and kinda works. The pacing is very slow and most of the time I don't have any clear reason for anything I do. Like, I decided to go into a pipe not because I know that my objective is that way, but because is the only interactive object I hadn't used yet.

There is no other game made me feel guilty about my intelligence.

I found this game hard. Harder than Dark Souls. But at the same when you look at the clues, it is the easiest.

You gonna be like " Oh my, why did i look at he clues. " and feel bad about it. Also,

Art design is astonishing. …

Art design is astonishing. Storytelling is incredibly creative. Puzzles vary and their connections is good.

I like this game. But i hate myself.

Almost halfway through this one. Beautiful artwork and soundtrack, but I dunno how in 2009 people still hadn't understood that pixel hunting and illogical or almost-random puzzles are NOT OK. This game just has lots of stupid design choices. Hope I can finish it without looking for a walkthrough again.
