Audio

Curation text - With deceivingly difficult puzzles and an excellent soundtrack, EDGE is a mind-bending puzzler for the ages.

I tested this game in both integrated graphics (Intel HD 4600) and dedicated graphics (GeForce GTX 860M 2GB).

Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
Tiles that move, crumble; switches that morph the playfield, or that send blocks at you, pushing you; moving blocks that you have to begin climbing but not complete the climb over them (by balancing yourself mid-rotation up the side of a block)....these things come in a variety of forms and configurations and combinations, and over dozens of levels provide short but interesting gameplay experiences.

Good for those who wish to prove their worth with their hand-to-controller reflexes.
