Manifold Garden is a fantastic puzzle game where the central mechanic is based on changing your perspective of the world. You can change gravity to reorient the world around you, opening up new pathways and solutions to puzzles.
The levels in the game are a bit mind bending in the ways they function and bring to mind the drawings of M. C. Escher. The levels repeat infinitely as well and you can use this to your advantage by flinging yourself off the map and landing in an another, more advantageous position.
The minimal art style looks great and the ambient sound track lead to a very cinematic experience. The level design is fantastic as well, with the beginning of each level introducing the fundamentals of a new mechanic and then slowly building upon it to create more complicated puzzles that are challenging enough but rarely feel frustrating.
Overall, Manifold Garden is a well constructed and produced puzzle game. The art style, music, level design, and puzzle design are all top notch. It is a lovely game to play and experience and I highly recommend Manifold Garden to any puzzle game fans out there.
