The Good
- An imaginative coming-of-age story reinforced by absurdist elements, funny writing, and whimsical art
- clever puzzles that increase in difficulty and complement the character-switching mechanic
- excellent voice acting and music.
The Bad
- The wait for Act 2 was much longer than expected, disrupting the story’s flow
- unclear logic in the last puzzle detracts from the finale
- confusing auto-save behavior.
Our Verdict
Excellent
A superb game that excels in just about every area, held back only by one or two notable flaws or a collection of smaller ones that prevent the game from earning full marks.
With Broken Age’s release the Double Fine Adventure comes to an end, and the result is a standout game that delivers on its promises. Play it.
