Entwined Reviews
Professional reviews from gaming critics
A unique experience that at it's best starts to feel like REZ, but even at its worst still thrives by being an experience wholly unavailable elsewhere.
“Entwined is wonderful game that, while only nine levels long, runs deep with longing, loss, and love.”
No summary available
I started Entwined at the start of my work day, and -- after several pauses to write e-mails and attend to some other matters -- I was done by lunch. In that brief time, I came to appreciate its gorgeous aesthetics and moody soundtrack, but at the same time, I was never able to develop a rhythm playing the game itself. There's a wonderful nugget at its core, but the final product, when all features and factors combine, never shines enough to recommend it without a series of caveats.
The gaming landscape is broad enough to support a wide variety of experiences. More releases are challenging our definition of the word “game,” defying classification and veering toward interactive art. Entwined is one of those titles, but it demonstrates that being artsy and unique isn’t a free pass.
At only two hours in length, Entwined could have been a short but sweet action rhythm game, but a number of small issues add up to big problems.
Guided by love nothing can keep you apart
