A very enjoyable game with some great visuals and music. A lot less frustrating than other Getting over it-likes, while still being challenging in places. I did encounter a bug where I got stuck in level 3 and had to restart, but besides that I really enjoyed it.1 found this helpful
Short and sweet! Very cozy game with mesmerizing visuals and music!1 found this helpful
SISYPHE is a cozy and relaxing game about a square navigating a rocky environment and how it changes with time. This game is like a mix of "Getting Over It" (but not that hard, there are some challenges, but the frustration is not comparable to Getting Over It) and Journey. Very minimalistic graphics, but in a good way. The atmosphere created in combination with the environment and the music is very relaxing :-) There were some minor bugs, but they weren't game-breaking, so they didn't interfere with my enjoyment of the game. Also be prepared for your spacebar to suffer in some parts of the map XD1 found this helpful
Good game1 found this helpful
SISYPHE is a calm and brief linear platformer, it has very nice music, enjoyable graphics, and tricky but conquerable gameplay. I did feel that the difficulty spiked in the second-to-last area, which was the only time I encountered a struggle in this game, but it's not terrible and I still made it to the end of the game shortly afterwards. I like the mechanic of your shape gradually changing throughout the game, it alters the gameplay and puts emphasis on the journey rather than the destination. I recommend this game to achievement hunters and seekers of unusual platformers.
Fun and relaxing game. The game has 7 levels which you have to go through, which feel like a real journey. I love the music too! Every level has its own music, which match perfectly with its environment. Although it has 7 levels it can be completed in about an hour. Unfortunately I couldn’t complete the last level. There’s still a couple bugs in it. I got stuck a couple of times while playing some levels. When I got to the last level my round ‘square’ started to jump very fast, that I couldn’t control it anymore. When I saved and logged in again, it was once again a square which can’t (or very difficult) complete the last level. But I am sure this is a bug that will be fixed. Definitely worth to check out especially when it is on sale!
