May 2025

the game is undeniably a classic and has made videogame history, even if small. the original game's gameplay loop however gets stale after tens of hours, and the only things that spice it up are official scenarios and workshop stuff. the cure mode is also good and very fresh, but it's way harder to get the hang of. this is the kinda game you play nonstop for a few days or weeks when you first play it, then drop and revisit it once half a year or something like that. it's a good game, even if it's not super replayable in the long long run. made my childhood.

The gameplay is fire. The concept is fire. Blink, and the world is on fire.

Nov. 2024

One of the best sound designs in any game, some of the best gameplay mechanics, and you can destroy france, so it is an amazing game.
