March 2025
This is my childhood game, when I was as little as 1 years old, I sat in my dad's lap watching him and my mom play this game together. Back then, I was just fascinated by the little robot and how it moves, stretches out, interacts with things and most importantly dances. I remember copying the dance moves and the enjoyment from it, while making my parents laugh. Fast forward to 15 years later, during a very casual, nothing out of the ordinary day, I suddenly got a flashback to this game. It made me so happy that I remembered it and instantly went searching for "little robot game" on Google. Thankfully, Machinarium popped up first and I instantly recognized it. After that, the next moment it was already in my steam library. The joy of opening up a childhood game and starting to play it is beyond words. My parents are now divorced, so I played this game mostly on my own, sometimes with my mom. Her and I were both overjoyed. I cannot express the internal joy I felt playing through the game and recognizing some stages, it was such a heart warming moment, tbh it made me pretty emotional. It was just so beautiful playing through this game, being able to remember some stages and also discovering new ones and dwelling into the gorgeous art and puzzles of this game. I had so much joy playing this game and I can't wait to revisit every once in a while the in-game street band and vibe to the music, just like when I was little. P.S. the game's OST is pure perfection, along with everything else. I'm not saying this only because it's so sweet to experience a game I hold so dear to my heart, but also because this game genuinely is absolute perfection, 10/10. There were so many scenes that made me laugh, go "awww", and even tear up. I love this game so so so much, it is one of my heart's most beloved treasures. Thank you, Machinarium.<3

Machinarium is a charming, brainy adventure where a little robot braves puzzles and a rusty world to save his love. Adorable art, clever challenges, and robot giggles make it a delight!

A true classic of its kind. Played through it again, and achieving a perfect game felt incredibly satisfying. I know Tomas Dvořák’s soundtracks by heart, yet hearing them in the game still warms my soul. It's truly remarkable how this game has remained timeless and continues to captivate just as much as when it first came out. Beautiful!
