Very solid.

Worhipping this game is just a BIAS. In fact it is pretty much mediocre.

Maybe it doesn't deserve the negative review itself. But I don't want to add up to positive ones because in my opinion it doesn't deserve them either.

Too much talking. Quite boring interactions with the environment when you bump into another obstacle and have to figure out how to progress. Not many fights and the enemies just appear by script in small groups. No melee weapon untill the end of the game. And the achievement "One Bullet" actually forces you use a Gravy-Gun most of the time which is not the best idea in terms of gameplay.

Maybe all of that is pretty "Half-Life"-style but that is what I don't like about Half-Life series in general.

Absolute must-play.

So tedious to bump into the border of the track while you can't actually tell how far from you it actually is because of the way it looks like. Also, this game has troubles with proper Alt+Tab minimizing.

This game is actually based on the re-roll of the level until you manage to beat it and feels like quite quick-paced. However, it is ridiculously slow-paced in terms of the interface and making restarts: there are a loading and a cut scene every time you restart the trial. So quite a lot of time is wasted just to make another try. Not even saying that watching the same cut-scene every time is an utterly bad game design in terms of gameplay. The menu is so contrastingly slow and you even have to wait while its sections switch. On top of that, you can't just press Esc to get back to game - you have to press the Resume button with your mouse. The gameplay feels repetitive and you only have to stick to minimap. I don't get people who admire the game's replayability. The camera is awkward and doesn't feel convenient in some specific way. And half of the achievements even cannot be gained.

What is cool is music and the visual design is decent too. But it's not enough for this game to be recommended.

Из плюсов - отсылки к мемам, дух глубинки, очень правдоподобный супермаркет с весёлыми названиями (отдельный плюс за "Мясо ящеров с жилами"), можно сделать ачивки, неплохая атмосфкера.
Из минусов - игра всё же слишком сырая, квесты примитивные, много пустой беготни. Плохая оптимизация, перестают работать некоторые сохранения.

В целом осталось впечатление очень рыхлой и деревянной игры.

Probably my personal best of the serie so far.

Chapter 1 - from very exciting puzzles it ended up with absolutely mindblowing and creative one. I wasn't expecting it the way it was.
Chapter 2 - suffocating, excruciating, counter-intuitive and just boring. The utter fail part of the game.
Chapers 3, 4, 5 - all can be completed in any order. Pretty decent and have their own stylistics.
Chapter 6 - pretty short and straightforward and not even a puzzle to be honest but generally feels good.

Absolutely recommended for Co-Op puzzle-solving.

Sissies are not welcome here.

Very descent building sandbox with chilling soundtrack and great cosy cartoon stylistics.
