To a T

To a T is one of the strangest, most adorable, most heartwarming games I’ve played in a long time. Through all its absurdities, it has a profound message that will stay with you long after you put the controller down. This is a short, delightful experience that I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend to anyone. It’s nearly impossible to play this game without smiling.

To a T may seem like a totally ridiculous video game in concept, but it has a lot of heart, fun exploration, and some seriously catchy songs.

Main characters in video games come in all sorts of different forms. They range from big burly warriors to captivating underdogs. The lead in To a T falls in the latter category, but this specific one serves as someone whose unique qualities make him an inspiration. Annapurna Interactive and Uvula (the new studio founded by Keita Takahashi, the maker of Katamari Damacy) tell the story of someone w...

Though it struggles to pace itself evenly due to a short run-time, To a T is a remarkable, life-affirming wonder. Perfectly un-perfect and proud of it, this is a flag waved high for oddballs – and likely to be one of 2025's most memorable games.

Keita Takahashi and friends deliver a story about loving yourself no matter what you're capable of in To a T.

Imagine you looked like a T: what a crazy life you’d see! Your arms don’t bend, kids laugh at you, you’ll need some help to use the loo. But though your T-bod can be trying, twirl a bit and you’ll be flying – twisting, soaring through the air, wind billowing through your hair. When you float back to the ground, all the town will gather ’round and celebrate your T-shaped flight, and maybe things wi...

A weird and funny story with a lot of surprises, but control and camera issues dampen the fun.

To a T, tries hard to be like a Saturday morning cartoon. Yet just like trying to recapture that same experience nowadays, it overall feels like it’s missing something. Granted, this issue may mostly apply to older players. Maybe, the ones who will find the most fun are those who play this with young kids.

I’ve never played anything quite like to a T, which is its strongest attribute. The characters and world are fun to follow, but the gameplay fell a bit flat throughout the runtime, leaving me feeling a bit bored at times. Perhaps the game just didn’t fully click with me, despite my appreciation for the concept and wild story.

To A T is a quirky and charming story about an underexplored topic; if only the act of playing it were a little more fun.
