Schrodinger’s Cat And The Raiders Of The Lost Quark

This game is so dumb. It is absolute nonsense. You should play it.

A great game full of excite!

I'm writing this review because I just saw this forgotten gem somehow only has a mixed rating. Platforming is alright. The combo mechanic is interesting enough to make a playthrough worthwhile alone, but the where this game really shines is the humour. There are many games out there which try to be humourous, but I'd be hard pressed to name more than perhaps two other games that had me laughing as hard as this one. My stoic german facade hardly ever drops, but this game required me to pause for a minute or two until i could stop the guffaw. Whether that means the game has insanely good writing or I'm just a weirdo is up to you. My work to the algorithm here is done.

Be prepared for a lot of particle physics-based jabs and quirks. Yes, there are quarks called strange and charm and there are even jabs at the god particle. The game isn't that long and many of the sections focus on resource management. The combinations for your various abilities can take some getting used to, but they're listed on the pause menu and save for some exceptions, you can take your time. However, there are some issues with this game. First, the collision detection can get a little wonky; I've actually clipped out of bounds at the beginning on accident. Second, the chase/autoscroll sections were poorly planned out. The game's control scheme isn't meant for that fast of a pace and the second and third instances are very unforgiving. It's doable, but you'll die a lot from either flubbing the sequences or tripping.

Overall a pretty fun puzzle-platformer, although marred by a few playability issues. The basic premise is to solve puzzles by collecting resources ("quarks") of four different types, which can be combined to perform special moves ("combos") such as digging, flying, etc. The resources are limited in puzzle zones, and creative thinking can yield multiple solutions. The story is lighthearted, the voice acting is of professional quality, and the art style is cute and colorful, if a bit busy. Pros: - Creative action-based puzzles of moderate difficulty - Fun and silly characters - The protagonist is a cat. Cons: - Somewhat glitchy, especially on Linux (see forums). - Loose and sloppy play control and level design (some levels are randomly assembled from pre-designed sections) - Limited controller support (I had to use xboxdrv) - Time-wasting backtracking (returning to the central hub from each puzzle zone requires revisiting three randomly-assembled zones) Play status: 100% complete in 8 hours.
