Critic Reviews
Small Radios Big Televisions Review
While very short and suffering from some control issues, Small Radios Big Televisions mostly succeeds in delivering a fun, bizarre adventure game. Its presentation is its greatest strength, offering moments of tranquility and also of total obscurity. It's a shame that the puzzles never grow beyond their initial design, as the premise practically begs to be expanded upon. Hopefully a more fleshed out sequel can introduce some new ideas, as there's the core of a good game here. It's just not quite long enough or varied enough, so you may want to rewind your expectations before pressing play.

It’s not a bad puzzle game by any means, and the virtual worlds add intrigue and wonder, but overall you won’t be going back after finishing the two-hour playthrough.

In the changing video game landscape, many games produced today would’ve been unimaginable even just 10 years ago.
