Short English-version below! Husk at følge SpilEntusiasten(DK)-Curator https://store.steampowered.com/curator/46233206-SpilEntusiasten%2528dk%2529/ TL;DR Mind over Magnet er et kort puzzle-spil med simple opgaver og en sød historie. Spillet kan nemt gennemføres af de fleste. Samlet vurdering: 0-9: Elendigt spil, nærmest ikke spilbart 10-19: Meget dårligt, men teknisk set spilbart 20-39: Dårligt 40-55: Meh (højeste grænse for thumbs down) 56-65: OK (Mindste grænse for thumbs up) ✅ 66-75: Godt spil 76-89: Rigtig godt spil 90-99: Et mesterværk 100: En ægte juvel Godt og Skidt (kort) Spillet er ikke specielt svært og kan derfor gennemføres at de fleste, inkl. børn. Der er et hint-system i spillet, som sikrer at du aldrig sidder helt fast i spillet. Banerne kan klares i eget tempo, så der er ikke meget stress. Historien er ikke noget særligt, men den er meget sød. Spiltid: Jeg gennemførte spillet på lige omkring 1½ time. Spiltid (100%): Jeg gennemførte spillet med 100% præstationer på omkring 1½ time. Ved gennemførsel af spillet, optjener man automatisk alle præstationer. Fungerer det til Steam Deck? Ja, spillet fungerer uden problemer til Steam Deck Personlig pris-estimering: Spillets pris ligger efter min mening for højt. En fair prissætning for spillet er ca. 4,99$. ------------------- This is a very simple puzzle game. The puzzles are not super hard, but still entertaining. The price is rather steep for what you get, but on discount it is a good game. Time to finish: Took me 1½ hour to finish (100% achievements)

Super nice little puzzle game. The different characters and corresponding mechanics are introduced slowly and the puzzles require a decent amount of thought and some trial and error. There are some points where you have to try again and again but not to the point it becomes tedious. I had to take a couple of hints, one of which was very obvious once I'd seen it - have more patience!

Simple, yet sometimes more challenging than you'd expect. Mind Over Magnet is a simple and short puzzle game all about navigating levels by utilizing a simple jump and some specific magnet capabilities. The game, in both presentation, story, and challenge, feels like it's geared towards a younger audience. That doesn't mean it's not enjoyable for anyone of any age, but it's very cutesy and every level has a robust hint to help you out if you need some help, so it's very approachable. After completing the game, the thing that stood out the most is that it's very short. Almost every level feels more like it's introducing a new puzzle concept rather than expanding on existing concepts. This isn't a bad thing, and I prefer games to not over stay their welcome, but I do think that more could have been done with the mechanics on offer. On the bright side, almost every single challenge you need to overcome is handled very well, so when it clicks, you will be able to exocute it quickly, with is exactly what you want in a puzzle game. No long waits or having to fiddle with timing or positioning, just a straight forward solution that may require you to rethink your approach. There was ONE mechanic that I think was failed to be introduced in a manner in which the player will pick up on it, though it could very well be just a failure on my part. This one mechanic has to do with flippers. [spoiler]These flippers are introduced as switches that change their condition when either the player or a magnet moves them. In the next level, you are meant to move a flipper with the character after placing the magnet on the ground, so that when you pass through the flipper, the magnet is launched as well. This wasn't something I realized could be done and the small window I think was meant to lead you to this conclusion wasn't really good enough for me. This was the one level I needed a hint for because I simply didn't see a way forward.[/spoiler] This hardly ruins the game, it's just one little hiccup in an otherwise extremely well done game. It doesn't take too long to complete this game, but you're likely to enjoy your whole time with it, so go ahead and give it a chance.

재밌는데 좀 짧아요 한번 나오고 다시 안 나오는 기믹이 좀 많은 것 같아요 그런 스테이지들에서는 해법을 발견하는 과정 자체는 즐거웠는데, 기존 기믹이랑 연결되는 느낌이나 앞으로 계속 활용될 거라는 기대에서는 아쉬웠던 것 같아요 나온 기믹들을 한계까지 뽑아먹을만한 엑스트라 스테이지 같은게 있으면 좋겠다 싶었어요

I think this is a rather cute game with just the right challenge level. Nothing is going to keep you super stumped, but it tickles your brain to see how the mechanics tie together into a solution. Now, it is a short game, likely only an 1.5-3 hours of gameplay, though you can replay the game with developer commentary on to get some insight into how levels were designed. I like having some small games I can knock out in a single sitting sometimes, so the short playtime wasn't a problem for me. You might want to consider getting it on sale. I liked the game, and I hope Mind Over Magnet gets expanded on in the future!

A fun time from start to finish. Quick, snappy, and full of moments that had me experiencing that "ah-ha!" moment that all good puzzles do. Easy recommend!
