Fine but not double fine (sorry)
Stacking is an adventure game with light puzzle elements. The interesting points include the matryoshka-based mechanics (where your character must stack into different-sized dolls to reach certains mechanics and the general style, parodying the late 19th/early 20th century industrial society, with aesthetics also recalling silent films. Depending on the latest doll you're controlling, differents things are available, including useless moves just for fun and each map contains several puzzles and things to scavenge for to advance the plot. Also, most characters are unique, with a name and short bio, which makes the game double as a small collect-a-thon. I'll admit I like reading character bios, because I like a well-built world, no matter the game, so it's quite a nice feature. The game is not overly long, rather a little short and quite easy, but the art style and the gameplay mechanics are pleasant and the final trial for the main story feel like a well-deserved boss fight wich fits. The additional chapter offers new things to do and a fun extra story, and I enjoyed it as well. While there isn't much incentive to replay, it's a nice ride along and a fun and relaxing game, I found myself replaying it just for the fun of it and because the art style really drew me in. All in all it's a good game I'd already bought and played (including DLC) on the X360 and that I was happy to see here and buy again, because while Double Fine may not make perfect games, they are generally good, and at least usually worth the price. I'd recommend this game if you already like Double Fine, want to try something a bit different (the stacking mechanic is quite unique), or want a relaxed puzzle game with little challenge but lots of style. Once again the game is generally good and fine, but maybe a little shallow and short in parts. Still a good purchase in my eyes.
