Critic Reviews
- I fear that a smaller, simpler game such as this might get overlooked in the blockbuster-world of console gaming. Being priced very reasonably for what you get, Unmechanical: Extended is definitely worth the investment. I had fun playing it, and hope for more to come. My only request for any future instalments that may be planned would be for somebody to please turn on the frickin’ lights…
Patrick Anderson · Feb 18, 2015 Reviewed on PS4Read full review - Overall, Unmechanical: Extended is a cute little experience. The stories are told in a way that takes at least a little bit of effort on the player's part. For those willing to put that effort in, and the effort to get through the puzzle rooms, escaping from the tiny robot gulag is a worthy way to spend a day.
Darren Nakamura · Feb 10, 2015 Reviewed on PS4Read full review - The puzzles are clever, the environments are absorbing, and there's enough intrigue to keep your curiosities engaged from start to finish. If you're on the market for an afternoon's worth of casually-paced entertainment and want to put your problem-solving skills to the test, then you should gear up for a bit of Unmechanical. It respects both the genre and your time, and for that — along with plenty of other reasons — there's quite a satisfying experience to be had.
Dave Letcavage · Jan 31, 2015 Reviewed on XB1Read full review - Unmechanical: Extended’s presentation will please, and its puzzles will challenge you for a few hours, but don’t expect it to do much more. The complete lack of context and non-existent story give you nothing to latch on to. The variety of puzzles found in the game don’t have much replay value, and even on the first go round, the more ambitious ones can certainly frustrate. That said, there are plenty of worse ways to spend an afternoon than with Unmechanical: Extended.
William Schwartz · Jan 31, 2015 Reviewed on XB1Read full review - Unmechanical: Extended is a puzzling game, in every sense of the word. In that manner there are puzzles, each of which must be surmounted before you can progress, but equally its lack of any true storytelling, beyond that which you create yourself, or indeed any hand-holding to point you in the right direction almost cause too much confusion. However, there is a wonderful spirit to the game, created by the beautiful aesthetic and meaningful sound design, both of which really warrant experiencing.
Dominic Leighton · Jan 30, 2015 Reviewed on XB1Read full review - Unmechanical: Extended's hands-off approach works wonders in the gameplay department, and the well designed puzzles – which are testing without being frustrating – make this something of a surprise treat. It would have been nice if the experience was a little longer, and we're a bit agitated that it doesn't come to a decent conclusion, but the personality throughout every aspect of its artistic design helps to overcome these modest shortcomings.
Alex Stinton · Feb 03, 2015 Reviewed on PS4Read full review - Unmechanical Extended meets its ambition: the designers fully explore the potential of the template and do so with elegance. But perhaps, in the new context of the newer consoles, that ambition wasn't quite enough. This is a slight, simple, often delightful game that displays moment-to-moment ingenuity but which now obviously lacks a broader conceit to bring its ideas together.
Simon Parkin · Feb 02, 2015 Reviewed on XB1Read full review - The biggest criticism we can think of is a lack of replay value and the relatively short length of the game. Once completed you will find little incentive to manoeuvre once again through the labyrinthine corridors, although the new extended episode does add some value. This seemingly minor blemish is the only mark against what is actually a well-assembled product.
Stefan Briesenick · Jan 31, 2015 Reviewed onRead full review - An enjoyable and attractive, if overly-familiar physics based puzzler, Unmechanical Extended could be just the ticket for puzzler aficionados looking for a game to burn the hours away.
John-Paul Jones · Feb 09, 2015 Reviewed on PS4Read full review - Con una duración que ronda las 5 horas (capítulo extra de esta Edición Extendida incluído), y sin ningún extra de interés que nos motive a rejugarlo una vez terminado por primera vez, Unmechanical Extended es un título de aventuras y puzles muy correcto, que ejecuta a la perfección todo lo que ofrece su propuesta, pero que -sobre todo ahora, tres años después de su lanzamiento original- no reinventa nada en el género. Aún así, si sois aficionados a este tipo de retos, seguro que no os decepcionará.
