About A Virus Named TOM

✦ AI summary

You're TOM, a vengeful virus hacking through mind-bending puzzles and enemy-filled mazes to topple the corporation that created you. Team up with up to 4 players across 100+ levels of cooperative chaos, or go solo in single-player mode, with competitive battle mode to crown the ultimate virus.

A perfect place. A city without traffic. A dog that doesn't poop. All products of the brilliant mind of Dr. X, but hell hath no fury like a mad scientist fired by a giant corporation. In this unique action-puzzler you take control of TOM, a virus created for one purpose: revenge.

Hack your way through brain scrambling puzzles while maneuvering through a thumb cramping maze of enemies. Team up through over 50 cooperative levels in what MMGN is calling "The most addictive co-op game we've played since Portal 2." And if the over 100 levels aren't enough, you and your friends can destroy each other again and again in battle mode to determine just who is the supreme virus.

Key Features:

  • Single Player mode with over 50 levels across 6 distinct areas
  • Cooperative mode (for up to 4 players) with over 50 additional levels in which "friendships will be destroyed"
  • Battle for supreme virus-itude by battling your friends in Battle Mode
  • Evolving mechanics which ratchet up the difficulty from lollipop to soul crushing
  • An animated tale full of dark humor, malfunctioning robots, and little girl screams

What Steam players say

✦ AI summary

A Virus Named TOM is a puzzle game with an interesting concept and charming presentation that some players enjoy, but most find the core gameplay frustratingly twitchy and stressful—requiring quick reflexes and tile rotation under time pressure rather than pure puzzle-solving. While it's competently made with decent graphics and audio, players generally feel the execution-heavy mechanics are more frustrating than fun, making it a niche title best approached cautiously rather than as a priority purchase.

I had long forgotten this game, and restarting it on my Deck made it clear why. This reflex puzzler has its fans, but I am not one of them. Its priorities do not align with mine.

A nice short puzzle game.

Fun little puzzler. I don't have much to say, just wanted to give it a positive review!
Not recommended Mar 22, 2026
The most stressful "puzzle" game I've ever played. Less about solving the puzzles and more about the execution; rotating tiles while dodging enemies and stealing energy to extend your life/time. Sometimes there's memorization involved. Interesting idea, well made, fun cutscenes/story, but the core gameplay really is more frustrating than fun.

1/10 broken controls, couldnt stop moving left

more interesting than the average game from 12 years ago, but like others say, a bit frustrating and twitchy, nothing to write home about really
