POLYGON: "A brilliantly designed adventure that translates well-worn mechanics into a package that feels genuinely new and exciting."

GAMESPOT: "...if you take the time to explore all of Anodyne's nooks and crannies, you'll find hours and hours of gameplay in store... beautiful visuals you encounter as you trudge through everything from unsettling suburban neighborhoods to crumbling temples, and the poignant musical score surges with emotional power."

Ratings and reviews

Buy this Game. Seriously. But maybe on Xbox, PC or PS. I'm reading the phone controls suck but haven't tried for myself yet. Bought this on PC 5 years ago and it was amazing. I am repurchasing on Android and Xbox marketplace to support the making of Anodyne 2! It's 3D! Update:Just played 5 mins. Controls do suck. Manageable but takes away from the experience for sure if you're not patient.

Game launches, has you click a button labeled x as a confirm button a few times, then throws up a screen where the x button is a redirect to buy the sequel to the game you just downloaded instead of the confirm button. That's so utterly blatant my response was immediately uninstalling the game: don't know if it's any good, but if devs try to get me to buy the sequel before I find that out? Then it's not worth my time finding out, because the people who made it apparently don't think it is.

creative and well thought out, but good God are the controls wonky af. 90% of the difficulty is from fighting with the d-pad to go where you intended (especially in puzzle rooms involving pits). Would be 5 stars otherwise.
