Fez

Eurogamer have just done an article on people's Fez notebooks. If you're not using a walkthrough, and you're aiming to get 64 cubes, you will have a notebook. Fez inspires notebooks.

Fez would be charming as just a strightahead 2D platformer. The ability to flip the pespective makes it ingenious. The puzzles, oh god, the puzzles...they're spectacular. They're not just outside the box, they're frequently unaware of the boxes existence.

And there's so much of it. I'm on my second playthrough right now and there's whole worlds I've yet to discover and I'm so excited about the prospect of finding them.

Fez plays like the reviews of Braid read - it's as fun as Super Mario and makes you feel as smart as Portal. Absolutely essential.

10/10.
