The Art Direction is just gorgeous as the pixel graphics are so vibrant and offer a lot of detail even for the time it was made.

I really love Fez, It is a nice story, with nice pixel art and very unique game mechanics, If you like relaxing platformers with a heavy focus on exploring and solving puzzles you will love this game, and even if you don't like any of those genres, Fez truly is amazing.
