Assemble With Care Reviews
Professional reviews from gaming critics
Assemble With Care is a very short experience, so don't hop into the game thinking you'll get 10+ hours of puzzles to solve. We took our time with the game and clocked in at almost exactly two hours, but we would absolutely play it through again. Sure, the puzzles might be the same as they were and we'd most likely remember where every cog and screw fit, but we found the experience to be so heartwarming and calming that when the credits rolled, we just wanted to keep on playing. Fulfilled and yet yearning for more, we packed our suitcase and departed from Bellariva. If only we had been able to...
Don’t expect a great deal of emotional depth here though. Ustwo chose to keep things light in service of creating a purely pleasant experience. All-in-all, Assemble With Care is a quaint game and a splendid diversion from the rest of the Apple Arcade lineup. It’s not the type of game people are going to subscribe to the service just to play, but it is a wonderful supplement to the more time-consuming titles available.
Short, sweet and clunky, Assemble With Care has a wholesome message at its core, but the compromises made in porting its controls to PC mean that the mobile version is the recommended choice, assuming you have an Apple device.
Assemble with Care is quaint and contemplative but is short and lacks the challenge necessary to keep mature gamers engaged.
