Braid.

I got it for sale when it was $2 on steam.
So that means I have the PC version,
it is a nice little puzzle game,

As you can see from that picture, and the next few, that the graphics are cool, but not really HD or anything,
I don't think this picture below is even braid, it looks different...

Pretty much you run around trying to get the Key to get the puzzle pieces to finish the level,
You COULD just walk straight across most of the levels and go through the door, but thats no fun
You use time to get the peices, like in one world when you move forward the creatures go forward, and when you stand still they don't move, and when you go backwards they go backwards,
and you have unlimited lives, because you can't really die, you just reverse time...
After the first two worlds the puzzles start to get hard, and most you won't be able to figure out on your first try,
There are some bosses that are fun to fight, the first one you have to drop a chandelier on its head, several times, using time to make them re-spawn,

Seeing as this game costs $10, and I got it for 2, thats what I will be rating this on,
Graphics -  5 they are horrible quality and not HD at all, but they are like cardboard cut outs and that is cool,
Gameplay - 7 Using time control to solve puzzles is pretty fun, and plus that you can never die that makes it less frustrating
Story - I don't know whether to give it a 1 or a 5..... so I'll just give it 4
Overall 5.5 If you really like puzzle games you will probably like this, for some reason it kind of reminds me of Mario
