Nightmare Mode's Ethan Gach talks about Polytron's Fez, and how the game succeeds as more than just a puzzle platformer:
"Fish’s game looks and quacks like a platformer. It’s also a bulging piñata overflowing with a variety of puzzles. Both of these things are only to justify spending so much time in the world Fish has created though. They are part of the game’s sleight of hand, disappearing to reveal the childlike remembrance of things past situated at the core of Fez."
Random Nintendo shares Indie World highlights and impressions of Fez, There Is No Game: Wrong Dimension, and Aerial_Knight's Never Yield. Plus, The Great Ace Attorney, Microsoft's Switch on a shelf, and more.
With its unique visuals, wonderful soundtrack, and addicting gameplay, FEZ is as much fun to play today as it was nine years ago. Jes from Gaming Respawn reviews.
WTMG's Leo Faria: "In short, Fez is as good now as it has always been. The reason I call this version the best way to experience this indie game is mostly due to the perfect combination of the Switch’s portability and its screen being much larger than the Vita’s. This is easily one of the best indies ever made, and one of the most important games of the past decade. Even though a lot of younger players only know it due to its troubled development cycle and some post-launch controversies, Switch owners should definitely pick this game up. This gem took an eternity to arrive on the system, but it feels right at home on it."
