Braid (XBLA)

Braid is a puzzle-platformer, drawn in a painterly style, where the player manipulates the flow of time in strange and u more »nusual ways. From a house in the city, journey to a series of worlds and solve puzzles to rescue an abducted princess. In each world, you have a different power to affect the way time behaves, and it is time's strangeness that creates the puzzles. The time behaviors include: the ability to rewind, objects that are immune to being rewound, time that is tied to space, parallel realities, time dilation, and perhaps more. Braid treats your time and attention as precious; there is no filler in this game. Every puzzle shows you something new and interesting about the game world. « less

Braid features stunning art, tight controls and atmospheric music wrapped up in an extremely innovative puzzle platformer. The genius behind Braid is that it is perfectly balanced between difficult enough and so difficult it makes you feel brilliant when you figure it out, all while remaining fun to play.

I resisted this game for a long time. I felt the storytelling prose was contrived and the character art didn't appeal to me. Granted, the background art and the music and innovative puzzles were unique and beautiful but I just couldn't get into it. But when I finally did, I have to say it's final more »ly caught a hold of me. When I solve a puzzle, I find myself wide-eyed and impressed at the puzzle and feeling like I'd actually accomplished something. Somehow, it has thus far just dodged being…
