Grab The Games: About Love, Hate and the other ones

About Love, Hate and the other ones is a point and click puzzle game where you have to find a way through caves and ice, castles and factories by using the power of love and hate to influence creatures.

With Hate you hiss "I hate you" and the creatures walk away, and its the same principle with Love but when you say "I love you" they walk towards you.... simple enough?

The game starts off simple and grows harder as you progress though the multiple stages easing you into the game by slowly getting harder,

Mastering the ways of love and hate did not take me long but the puzzles set ahead of me challenged me in a fun way, in the way puzzle games are meant to be, no one wants to play a puzzle game having no challenge at all do they?

Use the power's given to you to clear paths and create new pathways to reach the button on each level while coming across new ways to play like teleporting and flying to reach the end of each level, as well as meeting different kinds of creatures to get past, such as dead unmovable ones to the hat wearing creatures that consume others when made to move over them.

The art style to the game is really great with a pencil drawn style that adds to the creativity towards the game itself,

Sadly the game dose no have much to offer with its puzzles and can often feel repetitive, i would say the game is best played when you don't want to dive into anything too consuming while maybe doing something else in between levels.

I know that sounds a little bit harsh but when it comes to me sitting down and gaming on my PC i want something that really draws me in and makes me go out of my way to play again, Sadly on steam this is not the case for me.

For me personally when this version of the game comes to IOS tablets it will be a definite must buy! I found myself the whole time playing, thinking if I had this on my tablet this would be a real great game to pass the time any-day while traveling or relaxing around the house, you could even challenge mates to beat levels faster than yourself or even the whole game!

One thing that would really make this game great on pc would be implementing Steam Workshop and let players make levels to challenge each other, which would offer more content for the game itself at the same time as offering something for the creative minds to do!!

Verdict

When this version of the game comes to IOS tablets it will be a must buy!

On PC i would recommend this game as a time passer, not because its a bad game but because there is not much to it for people wanting an addictive challenging game, that most PC gamers are used too.

About love, Hate and the other ones gets 5/10 Indie Points!

If Steam Workshop could be integrated into this game I could see it growing into something very addictive!
