The UnderGarden is a casual puzzle game released for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. It uses a 2D platforming game style with puzzle elements including physics puzzles, and a floating player character. Two player cooperative play was also included. The game was marketed as a 'casual Zen game'.[1]
Reception
The game received mixed and generally favourable reviews, including some highly positive reviews; it received praise for the appearance and musical presentation, as well as the peaceful or relaxing ambience and broad range of appeal, though actual gameplay was considered by some reviewer to be limited, lacking complexity, or dull in the long-term.[2] A negative review by Kirk Hamilton in Joystiq described the game as having a 'me too' feel, comparing it unfavourably to Flower and Limbo.[3] msxbox-world.com described it as " [feeling] like an artsy game made by a bunch of businessmen, rather than an artist".[4]
Mouse control was considered not as good as control with a gamepad.[5]
