✦ AI summary

Players praise Tether's charming art style, catchy music, and unique tethering mechanics that become fun and rewarding once mastered, with both lengthy adventure mode and quick speedrun-friendly climbing routes offering different play styles. The main complaint centers on frustration with falling back down the course repeatedly, though most players acknowledge this difficulty is part of the intentional challenge and still recommend the game, especially for multiplayer fun with friends.

First of all, the art and music for this game are great. 10/10. The movement system is unique. It takes some time to get used to, but once you do, it's a lot of fun. Tether has two main modes - Adventure mode, and climbing mode. Adventure mode is a long climbing course that gets harder the further you go. Think of games like Getting Over It and Jump King. Tether is a bit more forgiving than these, which I think is nice. It's definitely still a big challenge, but also very rewarding once you get to the top :) Climbing mode is like adventure mode but with wayyy shorter routes. Whereas adventure mode takes hours to finish, climbing mode routes take seconds. This makes them a lot of fun to speedrun. On top of all that, the game has multiplayer, so you can compete with your friends to see who can get the best time! In the future, I would love to see more routes, or even a new adventure mode. An improvement to the UI could be nice too - I found it a little bit confusing at first. Lastly, it would be amazing if the game had a level editor so you could create your own routes! Overall, Tether is a great game that is a lot of fun whether you're playing solo, or with friends! I hope t…

Tether is super cute! The controls are "different" but not too hard to pick up. Tether evokes a neat feeling when you realize you are "getting good"; it's a very enjoyable indie game, and hilarious when you play with friends. Def recommend, appropriately priced and promises a silly fun challenge. :D

A cute, engaging and platformer with a focus on grabbing and swinging!

The art style and music are really fun! The controls can be challenging (or maybe that's just me) in a good way. I would definitely recommend if you want a fun game to play by yourself or with friends!

Games like Undertale that remember what you did

Undertale's own listing calls it the RPG where you don't have to destroy anyone. Games like Undertale that keep that idea: permanent choices, fights you can talk past, worlds that notice.

Most games like Slay the Spire copy the cards and lose the map. These keep the risky-or-safe choice, from a three-floor train to a deck made of poker hands.

Planet Coaster DLC: skip the collection, buy the packs

The Planet Coaster DLC catalogue closed in 2019, so there is no curve left to wait out. Our record shows the collection bundle costs far more than assembling the same packs one by one.
