The Entropy Centre

It's kinda hard to make a review about this game without having to compare it with Portal. It is a bit more of a "waiting" game than actually playing and the Story is pretty cool, but short and you don't see much of it. Some of the puzzles are...well......I wanted to smash my head through the wall since I scratched it sore with all the thinking. No really, some of them are brutally complicated. And then the collectibles...dear god. Some of them are so hidden and you know, without a playthrough of youtube, you'll most likely not get them without having to re-play everything, because guess what? You can't see how many you have and don't have in a chapter. Anyways, aside with all that. I really enjoyed it actually. I liked the atmosphere. And I only paid 1 Buck for it, when it was on a massive sale. Took 9 hours to complete it and got my value. So if you like Portal, totally give this one a go as well.

Really enjoyable game. Puzzles just the right difficulty so far for me - some of them I've had to think really hard about or do a bit of trial and error. Haven't got really stuck yet. The gradually revealed plot and context is intriguing and enticing too. Great fun so far.

This game has puzzles similar to the game portal, but it is not portals. It's something else and I love it.

If you like the game Portal you will very likely enjoy this game as well. The puzzels combined with the story makes it interesting beyond just solving puzzles. The earliest puzzles are very easy - that some of the first puzzles work as a tutorial makes sense, but it should advance faster in my opinion. A good game

LOVE IT !! Few bugs here and there. Jumping through jump-boxes is sketchy, because movement is little slow on input reaction. Few puzzles can be tricked and solved not as they intended to be solved, but I think it's even better. Overall great game with beautiful design and interesting story approach. Strongly recommended.

Really enjoyable puzzle game and intriguing story. I'd say most puzzles are "just right", they don't take too long but are complex enough to be engaging. These are topped off with a few that require a lot more thought. The puzzles also get much more interesting as more elements are added.

pretty short, but well made puzzles and unique gameplay make it still worth it

Great puzzles and gorgeous looking game. The ending leaves MUCH to be desired. So many directions they could have taken the story but it fell flat in the end. Very, very unsatisfying with no payoff. Makes you feel like all that brain wrecking work was for nothing. Felt really futile in the end.

This game is fantastic. The puzzles (except maybe a tiny few) are interesting and satisfying, the sound and voice acting are top notch, and the story is surprisingly unique. To me, as a person who loves first-person puzzle games, this is up there with the Portals, even above The Talos Principle. Very highly recommended.

i will be real: the puzzles were not the hardest ever. I think the longest one took me was 16 minutes, and i think that was a combination of me being way too stubborn about it and leaving to go do something else in the middle of it. my main complaint to get it out of the way: Lag. Maybe it's just a me issue, but running the game for too long - or even sometimes at all - causes it to lag pretty badly. textures are frequently slow to load in, actually popping in as I look at them if they properly load at all, and rooms ended up looking not-so-great as a result. but the second, worse issue was a byproduct of lag: every time the game stopped to load something, it would immediately force me to drop anything i was carrying, on occasion also flinging it forwards. this was a hassle in areas dealing with enemy robots, and in fact caused me at least one very frustrating loss when it dropped a jump cube as i was crossing a bridge, causing me to fall off the side and have to essentially do the entire process again. this really shouldn't be a thing. that being said: the story absolutely blew me away. like it was just absurd. i love aria, i really love astra, and i love how they interact. you've made something special, here. it's bittersweet, but powerful. well done. i give it a 9/10

Both positive and negative reviews are right. The puzzles are a little bit tedious and waiting for the blocks to rewind to their desired position sometimes gets boring. There are a lot of precise jumping parts, but they are far from Minecraft parkour skill level. I've felt like the game has even aided me in reaching the jump cubes when falling down towards them. Graphics are top notch (but your PC will get hot!), with an occasional noticable asset recycling, which is not that bad. Some of the levels are monumental if you are into this kind of thing. Really great. I also liked the sound design which can easily compare to this of Portal. The story is okay, with the main characters being the highlight for me. The dialogues were a little bit cheesy, but I got used to them and learned to appreciate them. I also liked the voice acting. The companions are really likeable. The game's motif of environmental disasters is a nice touch too. The bee poster will haunt me at night. I also liked the pacing; action and puzzles seemed to be balanced pretty well. Some of the puzzles felt like they could be "cheesed" which I have really liked. I can't really tell if I solved them in a conventional way or not. To wrap it up, I think the game is worth checking out. I got it for around 5 EUR.

Fun puzzle game that takes a lot from Portal but adds onto it. I feel like the narrative moves a little slowly and unless you have a good deal of time to grind through puzzles, getting to the the end of the story takes a while. Still, fun and a good time suck if you're into puzzle games.

Felt like a wanna-be portal clone. Very linear story, a lot of walking from puzzle to puzzle with exposition dumped on you by the narrator. Interesting concept but ultimately felt flat and lifeless.

The Entropy Centre is an amazing Puzzle Game that makes you think about how you solves Puzzles backwards. I originally played it on Xbox, and it was so good, I bought it again on Steam. I would most certainly recommend this game.

I really had my hopes up for this game, as I was looking for something similar to Portal 2. After 3 hours, I find that the puzzles really start repeating themselves, with them not getting increasingly difficult. New elements are introduced, but the way the puzzles need to be solved stay very similar, regardless of the new elements introduced. I bet there is the right audience for this game, and I do believe that there are fun pieces of gameplay to this game - and the storyline woven into it is really nice - but I don't feel the urge to finish this.

it feels easy or it feels like the puzzel is missing a piece

Fun game.
