werupenstein's Transistor (PC) review

Once you "get" the game, it's good

I didn't like the combat system off the bat, but it really grew on me over the course of the game and I think its the best part of the game.

I wish they did more with the non combat side of the game, it felt too linear, there is an environment puzzle at the start of the game then nothing, I think they could have done a lot more with that sort of stuff.

Beautiful visual art and music, story is a bit lacking and the ending was a little severe, bravo for going there though.

I will definitely buy whatever comes next from Supergiant.
