About This Game

Strings Theory is a wacky puzzle / arcade game where you control the particles of life itself!

Inspired by the romantic side of physics, we take you on an epic journey into the heart of Anomaly. Control three unlikely heroes with their own personalities and skills. Beat more than 50 brain-twisting levels. Save the microcosm from a deadly threat!


"Oh, what a beautiful mystery this land is. How inorganic." - Isaac, the smart string

Find yourself in a strange land. It's the Anomaly, where forces unknown converge. Swap between your strings and use their unique skills to avoid the dangers. Collect the quanta of energy, and reach the wormhole to the next level.

Play with friends! Strings Theory supports up to 3-player local co-op. Enjoy a mode where every player controls a different string in front of a single screen. There's a twist: only one string can move at any given time, so you have to talk about your strategy and solve the puzzles together!


Deatomizers that can evaporate you in an instant. Trapdoors to the void of space. Gravitiles that change gravity. The ever-moving Kinetiles, and more.

You're going to need brains to navigate such a treacherous space. A bit of good old arcade timing won't hurt either.


Telly, Isaac, and the Twins used to be your everyday strings. Sucked into the Anomaly, they're our only hope to stop the impending doom.

    Telly is a hot-headed wannabe hero. What he lacks in brains, he makes up for in strength. Use him to push obstacles out of your way.

    Isaac is a mysterious chap with a keen interest in physics. Make him phase through floors to reach unreachable places.

    Twins, or Norm and Sal, are like the poles of a magnet. Separate them, and they'll be more than happy to conjoin.

Can this odd bunch get together and save the world? Yes, but only if you help them!

The game is about solving logical (cosmic) problems, occasionally under time pressure. We control one character, two or three depends on current level... switch between them and you have their unique abilities at your disposal. At the same time, this game tell us story in an accessible way about the cosmic string theory. [b]Gamelay[/b] What I like most is Isaac's ability to "move between dimensions" or you could call it a weird inversion. It gives curious atmosphere to my mind - worth to try! Twins make a nice brothel - just like twins should do! Controling them is really complex. I like their ability create more than one solution to the puzzle. Last one - Telly oh well, Telly you always, always have to go to rescue Telly. This string-persona have one ability which can be used only on one certain obstacle, I'm curious will Telly's skill evolve later? Nevertheless, the combination of these three strings yields considerable complexity on the board - I like that! [b]Design & music[/b...

Great game to chill in the evening and still feel productive solving the puzzles! Initial levels are a good warm up before harder and more complex ones. So you catch what to do easily and the only challenge is solving the puzzle. Totally recommend playing with controller, even if you are more keyboard person like myself. I was mesmerized by graphics in first levels with Norm, might have spent more time just turning camera to enjoy arts instead of playing there. Also Telly noises are just too cute!

It's nice to play, nice calming music, reminds me a bit of a level from diablo 2 with teleports, but there is so much more going on in the world of mechanics and abilities of individual creatures (strings). Every level is something new and may have different rules.

This one is a challenging puzzle that I've played by myself so far but will totally get some friends to play together because it must get even better then. I honestly didn't expect a game that appears to be a puzzle one to have such witty dialogues! Loved the characters here, each has a personality of their own and will probably make you laugh in the least expected moments of the game. A strong recommendation to puzzle lovers and people who enjoy games in co-op!
