Teslagrad Critic Reviews

Teslagrad is an exceptional example of non-verbal storytelling, relying on delightfully smooth animation and clever puzzles to see the player through to the end.

Teslagrad has a clever level design, great visual style and uses gameplay mechanics in a way that keeps the player both alert and eager to learn new things.

Clever design, brilliant gameplay, well-balanced difficulty and unique visual style: Teslagrad is an excellent action-platformer that fans of the genre shouldn't miss.

Teslagrad, the debut title from Rain Games, is emerging as an interesting and challenging adventure, able to keep you busy in engaging and challenging puzzles.

Rain Games' delivers a beautiful experience: Teslagrad is a clever Metroidvania, with a wonderful storyline and a precious game design. Sometimes it can be hard to master, but if you don't surrender, you'll be plenty rewarded. If you love this kind of games, you can't go wrong with it.

This is a game where every aspect shows that there's a lot of effort put into it. Harder than the average title, its mix of platforming and puzzles sets a solid foundation for a beautiful experience.

Rain Games have done a stellar job with Teslagrad. They have created an atmospheric world that drags you in and implores you to explore it. The graphics and art style are wonderful, the puzzles are logical and satisfying to solve, and the game is a proper challenge even for weathered gamers.

Teslagrad is a game with a good mix of platforming, puzzles, and old school playability.

The incredible artwork and wordless storytelling style invite those who want to experience a unique narrative, but the difficult action gameplay and tedious exploration for capsules actively work to keep players from that experience.

Teslagrad is an unorthodox platformer proving that the indie production is still able to deliver the original product. A pity, there is not a better written narrative that would shine upon the game's atmosphere and awesome sceneries.

Teslagrad is all about electricity, magnetism, and mind bending puzzles. The hand-drawn graphics and atmospheric music will take you to the top of the Tesla tower with a broad grin on your face.

However, I still wholeheartedly believe that Teslagrad is worth playing: Rain Games has made a fun twitch-puzzle platformer that both hits the right nostalgic notes while also carving out its own unique identity. There aren't enough games like this these days and despite its moments of extreme frustration, the game's beauty and charm were always enough to keep me playing.

Despite its unevenness and occasional cruelty, Teslagrad is a bold and captivating proposition. The unusual and elegant aesthetic is persistently attractive, and the lightness of touch with the storytelling brings the world-building to the fore.

Despite pacing issues, Teslagrad's strange blend of science and fantasy prove that opposites do indeed attract.

Beautifully drawn, beautifully animated, yet frustrating puzzle platformer, capable of enchanting you in one minute and pissing you off in another.
