M2 Gaming
Its minimalist, clean and beautiful visual.
The technical feat in terms of gameplay.
Good curve of difficulty/complexity for puzzles and gameplay mechanics.
Large number of puzzles, divided into 5 major levels.
Transitioning from one puzzle to another without loading, in the style of the dimensions in Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart.
Very good value for money and duration (approximately 7 hours)
The environments are quite similar, the story told is more or less interesting. Underutilization of the different artistic directions encountered early in the game.

GBATemp
An interesting concept executed brilliantly
Fun narrative with great voice acting
Well-designed environments that look great without being overly cluttered
Good degree of scaling in terms of level difficulty and complexity
Supports the PS5's adaptive triggers
Three to five hours of content if only playing through once Even at their hardest the levels may still be too easy for some No motion controls (expected on PC but would have been a great inclusion on the PS5)

Refreshing mechanisms over and over again.
Really creative riddles
Amazing perspective games
Impressive blend of styles.
Attractive presentation
Optionally, the jumble of collection invites exploration.
The story flows smoothly.
Background information often seems insignificant.
In English, this translates to: "The riddles are generally quite easy."
The timed puzzle does not fit in with the rest in a playful way.

ActuGaming
A perfectly functioning mishmash of storytelling and puzzles.
The quantity of various and diverse situations encountered...
The plurality of solutions offered to achieve the same goal.
A gameplay lesson serving impeccable technique.
The desired artistic direction for colorful and stylized cartoon-like graphics.
The interpretations of the characters are top-notch.
A little short
... although it is unfortunate that some mechanics have only been touched upon
The poorly optimized DualSense
The interface is a bit outdated.
Not really a main audio theme.
