With all the hype on the Playstation Store regarding Wipeout HD and various demos for anticipated games it may have been easy for users to overlook this little game call Geon, however ignore it at your peril, because it’s brilliant.

Sure, it’s probably not going to win any awards, but Geon remains a fun and replayable crazy action puzzle sport pacman hybrid. For a fiver, it’ll give you way more than just a weekend of entertainment, but probably in short blasts over the course of a long period of time.

IGN
Geon is unquestionably improved over the original version of the game. Clearly Strawdog was listening to both editors' and gamers' complaints and they made serious efforts to fix things. The result is a game that plays more intensely, with more depth and above all is more fun, but it's still not quite a must-have.

Great value at a penny under five quid. [Dec 2008, p.121]

If you're a puzzle game fan then Geon is close to an essential purchase for those looking for something new on the PlayStation Network.
