    Incredibly cute adventure that will inspire, entertain and maybe even touch you. A must-have for the fans of platformers.

    With 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.

    Amazing 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.

    Yarny 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.

    Most 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]

    Unravel looks beautiful, but it's ultra-slick sheen with nothing much to say. Faux-emotional, if you will.

The gameplay was perfectly balanced for my gaming level - challenging and diverse enough to keep being fun throughout. And even though a lot of people are poo-pooing the sentimentality, I liked the somber undertones and the story unraveled (sic) just at the right speed to keep me asking for more. Would not hesitate for a second to recommend this game, wonderfully executed!… Expand
