[h1] Truly awesome puzzle experience. Push huge blocks making path, aligning them require some thinking. Two type of blocks: blue which can be controlled by telekinesis, and orange which can be moved only when standing on them. Gameplay is short but 100% worth your time. Visuals are nicely made with colossal looking sceneries. Music is good. Must be played before death otherwise your life is worth nothing more than bread crumbles. [/h1]

I would give this game a positive review if not for the constant camera motion making me feel motion sick. There's a bunch of lovely little puzzles and art in this game that I can barely enjoy. I'm willing to change this review to a positive if an option for reduced camera motion is added.
