Baba Is You Reviews
Baba is You is a rare sort of puzzle game that I think everyone should play. It may not have the production values of a big budget game, but everything present works incredibly well together. The pacing, visual and sound design, level design, and implementation of its core mechanic create one of the best puzzle games I've ever played. What really puts it over the top for me is how it translates complicated logical puzzle solving into a concrete form that is easily understood. It's simple, accessible, and immensely gratifying.

Baba is You show us, what's possible in puzzle games. Not only is an exercise in breaking the mold of a genre, but also a new and creative way to make us understand the underlying mechanics and then show us that it can be even harder. Without a doubt, Baba is You is one of the best games this year.

Rules are made to be broken, and that's never been more true that with Baba is You, I just wish they had made it a bit more fun.
Baba Is You is a genius way to breath new life into the puzzle genre with its perfect blend of simple mechanics meeting mind-melting difficulty.
Baba Is You is like a compilation of gift shop brain teasers; they’re not for everyone, but some people can’t get enough of them. And while it may sound like just another sketchy smartphone game, it’s surprisingly one of the most unique puzzlers you can find on the Switch and the way in which it encourages you to break its rules and create your own ones is refreshing and unique.
Enjoy a relaxing puzzle game that innovates game mechanics in an easy and accessible way that doesn't lose the challenge that makes puzzle games entertaining.
Possibly the most original puzzle game in recent memory, Baba is You is also an exercise in frustration and stretched-out logic.
Baba is You has very high peaks, especially in the early stages and in the introduction of new rules, but its lows are terrible. Trying to be extremely difficult, it ends up with a bad, frustrating, and stale level design. The game seems to have forgotten that less is usually more.
