Reviews for "Closure"

I love this game

This game presents one of the best experiences available on the Internet, thanks to its simple but immersive and original gameplay and its chilling atmosphere. The literary will also enjoy the subtle plot development and the allegory that light is life and darkness is death. Glaiel and Schubbe have truly hung the moon with this one.

I can't find any words to describe it besides WOW

Amazing. The concept behind it is entirely unique, one I am 100% certain I have never seen before. You then expanded that concept into puzzles which were GOOD--beyond a certain warming-up point almost every level challenged me to think even further outside the box but none of the solutions ever felt impossible and not one, not one puzzle was solvable by trial and error. The ones that looked like they would be were the ones you slapped yourself hardest for when you spotted the trick. You kept things fresh without having to constantly resort to new features every few levels (I could count the number of things to interact with on my fingers, and that's including all three types of torch). Some levels required speed and timing, some did not. I especially liked the consistency of torches ALWAYS retracing their paths, which ensured the absence of trial and error in the face of "arbitrary" movement paths in each level. And was the key to a large number of the puzzles.

But perhaps the most impressive thing was the atmosphere; the darkness truly felt oppressive and threatening (the level this was most effective on was the one where you had to gather a light for each of four torches on stairs and get a fifth into an elevator torch and fill the others while the elevator stalled for time), and it was all-encompassing; the writing on the walls and occasional other creepy objects added tension and made the whole experience all the more gripping despite the knowledge that the game contained no enemies and wouldn't contain any in the future. The almost unbroken silence helped, as did the strange "dark light" balls.

You took a unique and innovative concept, and you stuck to it while exploring it to its fullest. The effect on gameplay was greater than that of any other gimmick I have ever seen, and the effect on atmosphere twice that. My hat's off to you guys.

Wow!
