Critic Reviews for Klaus
With enjoyable puzzles and an enthralling narrative, playing Klaus is a delight from start to finish
Klaus is an unusual, post-modern platformer that reflects on what it means to be alive.
Despite its shortcomings and unfortunate slip towards the end, Klaus stands as an admirable and respectable first outing for La Cosa Entertainment.
One of the most inventive puzzle platformers in years thanks to the way it constantly defies expectations, but the story is nowhere near as interesting as the game design, and it goes on for far too long.
Klaus is a really fascinating game, full of nice little touches, but with flawed controls and some frustrating moments.

Klaus is a subversive, ingenious little puzzle platformer that shouldn't be missed by anyone who claims to be a fan of video games. The nods to common tropes in the medium serve as both a bit of cerebral humor and as the basis for some truly inspired bits of level design, and the presentation blends excellent sprite work with flashy film-inspired animation. Minor annoyances, like the touchpad feeling a bit cumbersome and some irritating audio design, shouldn't keep players away from this masterful little piece of gaming love.
A solid debut title for La Cosa Entertainment, KLAUS looks good and tells its story very well. A bit too easy for seasoned players, which feels unrewarding, but still plenty to like about this quirky platformer.
The style of this game is what drew me in at the start. Flashy animations with a unique design that reminds me a bit of a cartoon film noir.
