Characters


Fearful Symmetry tells the story of three adventurers named Hero, Nulan and Heim.
  • Hero is a fearless adventurer. Looking out for valuable treasures, he stumbles upon the legendary Symmetry Scrolls. Ignoring the rumors about the curse bound to them, he decides to take the Symmetry Scrolls.
  • Nulan is a descendant of the tribe who created the Symmetry Scrolls. Her natural talent in magic lead her to become a soul-thirsty sorceress, enabling her to perceive disturbances in the symmetry.
  • Haim is a prince afflicted with a terrible curse that is consuming his very soul. He wanders the land looking for a way to lift the curse. His quest led him on the trail of the legendary Symmetry Scrolls, which are rumored to have power to reverse the process.

Every character offers ways to overcome puzzles in the game, which makes every level different depending on your choice of character!

Had a good time on Xbox with this and bought to support dev here, considering the bargaing price This is one of the most intelligent puzzle game ever made IMHO. You play a char symmetrically. Need to keep an eye on two different screens, representing two different dimensions and have to solve two puzzles at time basically. Art style is cute buy again, design is something incredible. I think this could be great on mobile and Switch, selling a ton. Worth it on PC too for some instant fun

I liked the concept of this game and the gameplay. It's a fun puzzle game... some achievements appear to be broken, and also I ran into a non-progression so it looks like I can't even finish it. The broken achievement thing has happened to other players, and it looks like the devs aren't going to address it? You can skip this game,

Returning to this after almost a decade. The game mechanics are fun enough, but can be frustrating and brain bendy. It isn't a bad game, but I don't think I would return to it. Good for some puzzling adventure.

The consept for the game is fun. the game itself-not so much. Its really difficult but not in a satisfying way. There are several levels with invisible enemies, or enemies that only show up when you get really close which is rather frustrating as it makes planning difficult in this puzzle game. Shotout to striped fantasy when they are never visable, so you just die over and over again to things that shoot from nowhere. The hardest character by far is the one you start with. So outside of maybe the bonus levels it gets easier as you go along. Several levels require EXTREMLY presise timing. The problem is that it often just looks like it isn't possible to do, so you might have figured out the correct solution, but didn't hit the teleport button in the right fraction of a second. Now you think it isn't possible and waste lots of time trying other ways. The death noise is extremly annoying, and you are going to hear it a lot. All the music is on a short loop, and there is not a lot of variety. Overall really dropped the ball on the sound.. The section with Haim I found kind of fun, but you do have to beat the entire game with Hero before you can play that. Its not really worth it.

good story, interesting puzzles. Personally I really struggled with the whole symmetry game play. So make sure you're good with controlling two characters while using inverted controls. Even if personally I didn't enjoy the puzzles due the symmetry game play I do recommend the game due the story and the game play will be fun if you're good at it.
