If you like puzzle games with brilliant stories, deviously clever puzzles, an incredible atmosphere, and an emotionally charged soundtrack buy this game.  The Entropy Centre came out of nowhere and floored me with its brilliance; the less you know before you go in, the better of an experience it will be.

I think a lot of people who really enjoy puzzle games will get a lot from The Entropy Center. It might be a bit darker and tonally dark compared to other similar titles out there, but it does deliver a rather enjoyable and rewarding experience.

With The Entropy Centre behind me, I’m fascinated by what Stubby Games accomplished with its debut. It’s full of excellent puzzles, but the stuff around them, like bugs and narrative pacing, stop the entire package from coming together in an equally impressive way.

The Entropy Centre is a fun, clever, and taxing puzzler that rewards your effort, persistence and, frankly, backwards thinking.

Puzzle games that manipulate the laws of physics have a new and very interesting representative in The Entropy Center. With the best device I have ever seen in this type of game, with well-planned puzzles and challenges, an intriguing and pure science-fiction plot, and high-end visuals, here is a must-see for those who like to give head.

While there may be a few stumbles along the way, The Entropy Centre has a unique twist on a familiar premise in this particular genre. It may not redefine it in any new ways, but it's something that will help scratch an itch in a brand-new way.

This is a worthy successor to Valve’s Portal games. It doesn’t have the polish and production values of those games but makes up for those shortcomings with it’s gameplay. If you love Portal, you, at the very least, really like The Entropy Centre. The Entropy Centre aims to bring a new meaning to the slogan: Build a Better Tomorrow.

The Entropy Centre is far and away one of the best first-person puzzlers you can play. If the genre does anything for you, you should come away satisfied with what the game has in store.

The Entropy Centre keeps players guessing and engaged with some surprisingly thrilling action sequences and well thought out puzzles. The narrative keeps you pressing on, the humour helps it somehow stay light in the most horrific circumstances, and it all comes together brilliantly in one package. Minor gripes aside, this is one of the best you’ll find in the genre since Portal 2 itself.

The Entropy Centre is a more than competent Portal tribute with clever time-manipulation puzzles and an endearing cast, but it doesn't take its clever concept as far as it seems like it should.

The Entropy Centre is a masterclass in intuitive, creative and exciting game design. From the first puzzle to the last you’ll be staggered by the imagination on display, and as you rebuild the world around you you’ll have a few chuckles along the way, too. A truly excellent first-person puzzle that deserves to be played by absolutely everyon

The worlds of Portal and Tenet combine to bring a puzzling game about turning back time.

Visually, The Entropy Centre can be a bit hit-and-miss. A lot has clearly been put into the visual aspect, but it does often feel like assets are reused over and over. As such, the inside of the facility can often feel a bit stale and samey. The same cannot be said for the outside of the facility, though, where outer space looks incredible and almost picture-perfect.

The Entropy Centre is without a doubt one of the best games you will play this year, a true GOTY contender, and saying this in the year of Elden Ring, Horizon: Forbidden West & God of War: Ragnarok, truly says a lot about the excellent quality that is present in this game.

Even considering these minor hiccups, I cannot deny that I had a wonderful time with The Entropy Centre. Stubby Games’ puzzler manages to not only fill its influence’s shoes, but do something all its own at the same time. That is an achievement worth celebrating: a better tomorrow indeed.

The Entropy Centre is a mind bending puzzle game that's constantly introducing new ideas to feel fresh. Rewinding objects never gets old, and will change how you think for hours after you put the controller down. Add on top some hilarious writing, charming characters, and an intriguing mystery and you've got an instant classic.

The Entropy Center is an excellent puzzle game that's as much its own thing as it is an homage to the classics, and is easily one of the most pleasant surprises of 2022.
