Braid is truly a work of art and an interesting platformer.

The Bottom Line:
"Masterpiece"
Braid is a time warping puzzle type platformer. Its not the first to use the time warping mechanic but it does it well. Here are some pros and cons from my time playing it.


PROS:
- The levels and artwork overall are a pleasure to behold.
- The music is very soothing and also fits well (Jami Sieber, Shirra Kammen to name a few)
- The puzzles really make you think. But the solution is often deceptively simple.
- There are a few secrets if you know what to look for
- The ending was pretty brilliant.

CONS:
- This isnt Mario, some might be turned off by having to think a bit.

This game is pretty easy to recommend if you want a good puzzler and something different. I would say its worth every penny and consider it as much a work of art as it is a game. Give it a try and youll see what I mean.
