The Gravity Game - Flash Game Review

The Gravity Game is an addictive game, similar to many others. You have a character, a plot, and must adapt to your surroundings in order to avoid dangerous objects. After a strange, unique introduction to the character and his goal, you begin the campaign. To save marshmallows?

The controls are simple, you have a choice whether you want to use the WASD or arrow keys, and space is the only other key that's used. You are gradually eased through the missions and the obstacles that you will encounter more frequently during the later levels. You start off by simply jumping over a wall, which progresses into avoiding spikes and utilizing the gravity changers in order to reach the end of the course. Each course is only small, but requires initiative and perseverance.

There aren't many different types of objects that will pose a threat, however, each level will be structured so you have to do several things in order to advance past it. For example, you have to build up momentum when trapped between gravity facing upwards and gravity facing downwards, creating a trampoline effect. Again, this will be taught during the 'tutorial' levels, but during the difficult missions you will have to remember this.

Trial and error is an aspect you will only be too well familiar with once you have completed this game. Often you simply have to use the gravity changers on each area of the course to see where it leads you, and take this into consideration, then you put two and two together and eventually you will figure out what is needed. This can be frustrating but generally you never quit the game until you have completed whatever is challenging you. Besides, if it becomes too much of a burden then you can always press the walkthrough.

Even though the controls are simple, the game play is far from it. When you have changed the gravity and you are walking along the ceiling or walls, the left and right arrow will corresponding to whatever direction the gravity is in, for example if you are on the ceiling the right arrow is left and vice versa. It can be quite confusing to grasp, especially when trying to jump over an obstacle covered in spikes.

Although the objective is similar to many other games of the same genre, its uniqueness comes with the changing gravity and it can be challenging and mentally draining, yet it's rewarding once you've completed a difficult level, and is thoroughly enjoyable.
