    An incredible piece of tech and an even better piece of design, From Dust is a place to lose yourself in. [Oct 2011, p.104]

    It's a game that's pretty, controls well, and offers enough of a challenge to keep most players occupied for a while at a fraction of the cost of a full retail release title.

    From Dust is an interesting, original and creative project... unfortunately, it never capitalizes on its promise thanks to too many technical problems and a feeling of unpolished awkwardness. More frustrating and tedious than uplifting and deific, I'd love to see a revamped installment with the kinks ironed out. As it stands, I was all too ready to leave the islands behind and head back to the mainland at the first opportunity.

    I enjoy every bit of this game. It offers a challenge and it's a great way to get your mind working. The graphics are great and it runs very smoothly. I have yet to have a problem with this game. I recommend this game 100%. I hope you will enjoy this game as much as I do.… Expand

    It's a great game pure and simple. It is a bit hard to control with the game pad but after the first few levels you get used to it and its not a problem anymore. Its well worth the money. These poor user reviews are whinny BS. They are protesting DRM that doesn't apply to the game on Xbox, and a delay for the PC version. Grow up, seriously.… Expand

    I was very much waiting for a title like this, the trial was very promising, control was smooth but somehow it didnt amuse me in the end of the day. i would have appreciated more complexity (assuming that most of the fans of this genre are used to the hardcore ancestors of this game).… Expand
