The music, puzzles, story, and environments combine beautifully to create a wonderful immersive experience and one that I never wanted to end.

After playing "Syke" for about an hour, I was thoroughly impressed by its surreal world design, unique art style, and fantastic soundtrack.

Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
the gravity stuff is neat, but the puzzles are so boring and they don't even really use that aspect of the game to its advantage. the gameplay loop would be mostly unchanged after removing the main interesting thing about this game. there's a few puzzles that I think scratched the surface of the potential here, but hardly any. maybe the later puzzles were better?
