Ok, I'd like to start off saying that reviews should about the game, not the creator
Ok, I'd like to start off saying that reviews should about the game, not the creator. Yes, Phil Fish was quite nasty after making this game, but the game itself I believe is true art. What I love about this game is its non-linear gameplay style. At the beginning, you explore your village, find a hat that gives you powers, and then it tells you, "There are 64 things to collect. Go find them." At first, I hated this. "You want me to collect 64 collectibles without any sense of direction? This game sucks." But then, I realized the game's true beauty. Exploration. You go into a door, you don't know what will be behind it. It could be one of the 64 collectibles, a puzzle, a chest, a secret, anything is possible. And that, is why I recommend FEZ to anyone who loved games like Zelda: Windwaker, people who love to explore.

FEZ was overhyped
FEZ was overhyped. There is no denying that. When I first started playing it, I was let down. The world-turning mechanics were boring, the platforming unresponsive, at least to my tastes, the art style didn't suit me. I wondered, what was it that people loved so much about FEZ. I hated the game so much that I dropped it almost immediately. Fast-forward to yesterday, to the day that everything changed. I forced myself to play just a bit more in order to at least beat it. I thought I was returning to the land of tedium, and yet this wasn't the case. Maybe it was the anti-hype quarantine period that helped. I discovered that this game was not what it seems. Instead of platforming, I found increasingly challenging puzzles. It was filled with cryptic messages, lingustic riddles, hidden ciphres. It was fascinating. This game does nothing to help you discover it's true beauty. It's radiance comes from the fact that it holds you to extremely high standards. What other game forces you to decrypt a language using a Rosetta stone like device? Pen and paper are a must here. Think of a brutally hard, unforgiving game. Be it Super Hexagon, Dark Souls, Super Meat Boy, I'm sure you remember the extreme sense of accomplishment that surged through you when you conquered it's many challenges. FEZ is like that, only instead of your reflexes, it challenges your mind. Do yourself a favor and play it. Do yourself another favor, and never use guides. You will love it. I promise.

A quiet favourite
Fez is Phil Fish's stupendous indie tour-de-force, focussing on a little dude who learns to conquer the world of 3D! Fez is incredibly addictive and pleasant to play. As Phil himself states in Indie Game: The Movie, it's a stop and smell the flowers kind of game. I spent 15 hours fully completing this game and loved every minute of it. Genuinely one of my favourite games ever. There's puzzling, platforming and cute quirks everywhere. A wonderful and fun game for everyone. Wanna enjoy the experience even more? Watch Indie Game The Movie before playing and appreciate the amount of time and effort put into this wonderful creation. -Nilesy
