What a brilliant and well-designed game! First played this back in 2013.

I love how the world of Fez has been brought to life in its adorable pixel aesthetic, with music by disasterpeace fitting seamlessly, filling you with curiosity and discovery. The unique mechanic of interweaving 2D and 3D platforming into one is extremely innovative. Like many platformers before it, mechanics are introduced progressively through creative puzzles, with difficulty increasing incrementally through combining learned mechanics.

I found navigation became harder as more levels were discovered, finding locations on the map became difficult due to the map’s 3D presentation. There were a few extremely cryptic puzzles that were not intuitively solvable without Google searching for clues.
