A really fun and challenging experience blended in really well with a little story.
An interesting if conceptually unambitious effort, One Upon Light is an easily accessible puzzler that provides a decent amount of challenge – it’s just a shame that the game isn’t longer with a better handled narrative.
Technically it is a well crafted game without any bugs in sight. The look SUTD Game Lab has gone for with it stands out well, and works in the context of the game’s setting. The soundwork is also very well done. The majority of puzzles are decent too, but it is the ones that take ages to get past, even though you know the solution, because of timing that remove a lot of goodwill for One Upon Light. There were points where fun wasn’t being had because of them. At the same time One Upon Light feels very mechanical.
Its feels more suitable to be a game you’d play on your phone or on a tablet versus consoles, but it’s still enjoyable while it lasts.
There's some great ideas behind One Upon Light, but it needs a better execution, more content and a more balanced difficulty to be the game it was meant to.
There is a neat little game here, hidden in the shadows, but sadly, it doesn't shine quite brightly enough.
An intriguing puzzle game let down by dull visuals and tiresome design.
