Beta MAX
Critic Reviews for Beta MAX
You’d be forgiven for thinking this game looks pretty simple on first look. Especially as it leans so heavily on the much-used neon retro graphics style. However, as you progress through the game you will discover the puzzles could give the challenging ones from games such as Portal a run for their money. And maybe even surpass them! If you love your fourth-dimension, out of the box challenging puzzle platformers, give this game a go. I loved every minute playing this one! I award Beta MAX the prestigious Thumb Culture Gold Award!
Beta Max is a standout puzzle game with a unique mechanic that makes familiar gameplay elements feel fresh. The rewind feature adds depth and creativity to the puzzle-solving experience, striking a satisfying balance between challenge and accessibility. While the 80s aesthetic might feel overdone in some corners of gaming, here, it’s executed with charm and attention to detail, making it a perfect fit for the game’s premise. If you’re a fan of the genre or just in the mood for a clever, nostalgic trip, Beta Max is a must-play. Plus, with a free demo available on Steam, there’s no reason not to give it a try.
