LEVEL (Czech Republic)Mar 22, 2016Incredibly cute adventure that will inspire, entertain and maybe even touch you. A must-have for the fans of platformers.
-
Mar 7, 2016Amazing platformer nearly without any mistakes. Visually stunning, soulful, great, pleasant and with catchy music. Unravel is a pleasure to play no matter your genre preferences.
-
Feb 21, 2016With its expressive character and amazing environment depictions, Unravel excels in sending the player through a cascade of positive emotions. From its narrative to its core technical elements the game can only be described as art at its purest form. The perfection of simplicity.
-
Feb 12, 2016When it comes to breathtaking 3D backgrounds, Unravel definitely stands out. Trial-and-error can be a bit of a pain at times, but altogether Unravel is a one of a kind experience that you need to play.
-
Feb 22, 2016The simple controls work equally well whether you’re using a controller or a keyboard allowing the great level design to show through. With each of the levels adding a new hazard of some sort, it allows Unravel to remain fresh throughout.
-
Feb 9, 2016With its flawless presentation, charming puzzles and solid platforming mechanics, Unravel will steal your heart in an instant.
-
Feb 11, 2016Beautiful and moving jump & run with puzzles, solid game mechanics and a great hero.

Feb 11, 2016Yarny is one of the most adorable characters among the games that we played recently. Unravel has a beautiful environment but the gameplay mechanics are repeating themselves at the same time.
-
Game World Navigator MagazineMar 14, 2016Most of the time Yarny will be traversing beautiful locales, but you’ll also have to visit a chemical waste dump and a house overflowing with cockroaches (which will tear Yarny apart like a school of piranhas). At moments like these, all charm of the game totally disappears. [Issue#207, p.76]

Feb 9, 2016Unravel is a marvelous audiovisual experience, has good puzzle mechanics but it's too simple and irregular experience in terms of platform gameplay.
-
Feb 12, 2016Stunningly rendered close-ups of nature make Unravel’s somber fable and irritating death traps just worth surviving.
-
Feb 24, 2016Unravel looks beautiful, but it's ultra-slick sheen with nothing much to say. Faux-emotional, if you will.

Feb 11, 2016Coldwood did put their hearts into Unravel and I can definitely feel that when I play. But despite his woollen charm, Yarny stayed well away from my own heart strings.
-
Feb 14, 2016Unravel isn’t a bad videogame. It has some mild charm, and it’s one of the most visually stunning things I’ve seen in a long time. It’s just unremarkable. Which is a pity, because with the clear passion that went into its development, it’s easy to picture it being so much more.
