The gameplay is characterized by intuitive mechanics and smooth movement, allowing players to engage with a variety of clever puzzles that gradually introduce new elements. While the game offers a satisfying challenge, some mechanics may not be clearly explained, leading to moments of confusion. Overall, it combines charming visuals with a unique puzzle design, making it a standout title in the genre.
“The movement is quick and smooth, the undo button makes the gameplay a breeze, the puzzle design favors simplicity rather than tediousness, and brings many satisfying moments.”
“Each broken robot brings its own mechanics and blocks, adding a lot of variety to the puzzles.”
“The puzzles themselves are challenging and require some thought but never rely on obtuse jumps in logic, and game mechanics are introduced gradually and with some fun.”
“Very cool puzzle game, but there are levels where a mechanic that hasn't been introduced yet is needed, which is plainly unfair.”
“A few times I found myself stuck figuring out what to do, only to learn a mechanic was taught later.”
“The biggest gripe I had with this game is that there are just too many mechanics and too many block properties which show up suddenly in some puzzles, and unless you have a good memory, remembering those things and using them becomes difficult.”
Tetrobot & Co. Review
At first I was skeptical about Tetrobot & Co; not only was it a little outside of my generic comfort zone but it had the look, on the surface, of a game trying too hard to be modern.
70%Tetrobot & Co Review
Tetrobot and Co. is a beautiful, charming puzzle game with a very fair and calculated approach to difficulty. You’re not going to waltz through this 10+ hour title without breaking a mental sweat, but you’re also not going to be left so frustrated and confused that you don’t want to pick it up again; a puzzle that may seem incomprehensible to you may be a walk in the park for someone else, and vice versa. You may be held up by some puzzles, but it's not due to a fault in the game. Tetrobot and Co. really tests every facet of your mental agility whilst still providing an incredibly enjoyable and (sometimes) relaxing experience. It’s a gem of an indie titles on the Wii U eShop, and any puzzle fan would be mad to miss out.
