Figment: Journey Into the Mind 9+

Outstanding Puzzle Adventure! 5 Stars!

Update 2...Response to developer. Per your suggestion, I looked at 2 walkthroughs online. One showed defeating the 1st big boss battle by simply running to dodge the spiders spray. But, I still can’t win. :/
If there were more power ups in the boss arenas I think could win and finish.
I have changed the game rating from 4 to 5 stars. Just because I can’t finish doesn’t mean Figment isn’t a well deserved 5 star game. The game is phenomenal!

Update... Response to developer. Thank you for responding to my review. Yes, I dodged, rolled and ran to no avail. I love the game and would love to finish it.

One of the best and most original games I’ve had the pleasure of playing in a long time! The 4-star rating is for the wonky on-screen controls. Unfortunately, I was unable to finish it because I couldn’t get past the first boss spider attacks near the end of the game. I had completed all levels and released the "train" and was following its path on the rail. I just couldn’t get the protagonist to move fast enough to avoid being sprayed by the spiders! It’s so heartbreaking not to be able to finish this exciting game. I’m on iPad Pro so my device is definitely up to the task. I’m so very disappointed.

Would you be able to perhaps look up a playthtough on YouTube, and see if there is something the off with your version of the game.

They let you play the first act for free

The game is a creative powerhouse. If you’re a legend of Zelda fan from back in the day— I’m talking Nintendo 64, ocarina of time and GameCube twilight princess you’re sure to like this game too. I’ve never considered myself a gamer or huge on video games or app games but this game deserves so much praise. The detail that has gone into every single aspect of this game is incredible. The music. The graphics. Man. The idea that you’re playing within the mind is not only extremely creative too it also allows you to self reflect. In act one, nightmares escaped and trauma has changed the entire side of the mind we’re in. It’s unrecognizable. How do nightmares and trauma affect your own mind and body? I can’t wait to keep playing. Keep doing what you’re doing y’all. It’s amazing.

This is what we aimed for and we're glad you enjoyed it! Thanks so much for the heartfelt message :)

Love this game!

Best $5 I have ever spent. I enjoy the music, the creativity and the imaginary as well as the dialogue is very believable without being corny. It kept me entranced for long periods of time because i have to be indoors due to the covid-19 it was the most entertaining way to spend my time. I would say there should be also hints when you realize you are stuck. I play on my phone and the screen is smaller so it can be hard to see some things in the game. Other then that I am looking forward to the sequel! Keep up the amazing work, ya’ll!!!
