Excellent as a co-op title on the Playstation 2. Slow, considered, and tactical gameplay that really emphasises and rewards teamwork making for a really strong 2 player experience.
Different skillsets of the 4 party members adds a lot of character and creates genuine emotional investment.
Level design is strong, tone is excellent, although the story is somewhat forgettable - be the good guys, win the war?
A shame that the Steam version is single player.

A pretty game with strong sound design and a charming, colourful world filled with a variety of critters. Unfortunately let down by janky and stilted movement that makes the moment to moment gameplay awkward and platforming frustrating. Improves towards the end with an exhilarating teleport mechanic, but the jump remains frustrating throughout

A very cool game. Fascinating puzzles grounded in real world physics covering logic gates, analogue and digital electronics, and even the basic of Quantum Computing - given the quite nerdy theme the level of polish and detail in the visual design of The Long Gate is incredible. The puzzling all takes place on detailed realistic machinery in grand, gorgeous environments.
Not a game for everyone, but for physicists who like atmospheric video games - superb.

Really strong puzzle design in the bridge building, archipelago crossing, tile shifting, sokoban-esque puzzle game. Different coloured tiles have different rules for their movement, allowing interesting and engaging puzzles to be created through the combination of pieces. Visually a little bare bones, but very solid puzzle design makes it well worth playing!
