Cleverly done puzzles and artwork
I was reluctant to buy this game because it's short and from the screenshots I couldn't judge it was going to be this fun. I am glad I changed my mind. Yes, the game is relatively short but the quality of the experience made it worth the purchase. I'm galdly let the developers take my money. What Creaks is, is a simple interactive story where you find rooms that are a puzzle to get out of. There isn't any frustrating platforming, you'll just be focusing on solving the puzzles, some of which are especially clever and satisfying to solve. But that's not all... How the graphics and animation are used to great effect to create a unique atomsphere and tell the story which is a unique blend of Lovecraftian cosmic-horror with a humorous twist to it. Both the friendly characters and the foes you meet along the adventure are endearing. At one point I even started feeling sorry for a poisonous flying jellyfish. At another I felt joy when 2 enemies met each other and exchanged cuddles <3 . It's got little touches like these that show that a lot of care went into producing the game. And the music... it's just great! There were spots during the game where I just stopped moving and let myself listen to the atmospheric music. So I can highly recommend Creaks. Being short is its only drawback, won't want it to end. My first run took me a little over 6 hours. However, there is substance in that and an experience I am glad to have had. I will definitely check other games from the same studio and if it is another puzzle platformer I am already sold.
