What players think
The recurring themes across 300 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
It witnessed a successful Kickstarter campaign and the support of Square Enix, during the final phase of development.
Black the fall pleasantly suprised me in a few ways but mostly with its absolutely gorgeous art style.
The gameplay focuses on complex puzzle solving that eventually requires the aid of a laser device and a small robot companion.
The soundtrack is decent enough, but there’s always room for improvement and the sound effects are in ample supply.
Theme by theme
Every theme is scored by what reviewers actually said about it, not just whether they recommended the game.
Ranked by how many sampled reviews mention each topic. A topic sits in a column by what reviewers said about that topic; the percentage beside it is how many of them recommended the game anyway. 4 more themes were each raised by fewer than 6 sampled reviews and are not shown.
