Small Radios Big Televisions

[b][u]See written review below[/u][/b] or watch it here: https://youtu.be/Um0qRIeW74o [h1]TL;DR: SKIP TO CONCLUSION![/h1] Small Radios Big Televisions is a very short puzzle adventure game where you find cassette tapes containing worlds to explore. I wanted to play this game in hopes of enjoying some good puzzles and exploration. You need to find cassette tapes, and each of these tapes has a different world on it. You also distort the tapes to affect the areas on them in order to find the items you need to progress.The gameplay is mostly solving puzzles to progress, with only a small amount of exploration. I feel a bit misled by the game description and I had expected more in the way of exploration. When I heard the description say “boundless virtual worlds” I wanted more than just being stuck moving on rails, and panning the camera around to click on the same item every single time. I think they could have made the worlds better if they had some puzzles inside the tapes, had s...

Great game. Very atmospheric, very trippy. EXCELLENT soundtrack.

I have to admit, im disappointed. I saw a preview of this on youtube and it looked quite promising. What I didn´t know was that in this video (about half an hour long) I saw about half of the game, not a small portion, and the complexety of said levels would not increase throughout the rest of the game. Calling this game a "puzzle game" is wrong. There are almost no real puzzles. The "virtual realities", the main selling point of the game, are just small polygon-like enviroments where you have nothing to do besides from picking up a key (if there is one). They look nice, yeah, but they´re extremely underdeveloped gameplay-wise. I mean, there are countless ideas you could put into this theme, like rewinding the tape to get back to an earlier stage, or actually interacting with the world (I know you can move the trees around a bit, but it doesnt do anything). I finished the game with all achievements in less than two hours, and will now refund it because im not willing to pay 10 buck...

Very nice game! Will be removed soon sadly...

this game was AMAZING and i rate it a 9/10 this game only has a 2 issues: 1. the only screen resolution setting was 1280x720 2. there is no reminder if you forget what button does what other than that i say this game is worth playing

If you expect an interesting experience in terms of gameplay, this game is NOT for you. Puzzles are uncreative and there's no outside-the-box thinking as far as I got into the game (4th factory). Weirdly, this feels a lot like a VR game, even though it's not VR compatible. I felt like the whole game was an excuse for the devs to play around with visual/sound aesthetics and tried to fit them into a puzzle game somehow, when the best option was to explore another genre. It might be an interesting visual/sound experience for some, but I was not impressed :/

The best way to discribe what I have experanced is a breath taking audio visual journey through Small Radios Big Televisions. This game is extreamly relaxing and very stimulating. Solving puzzels and experancing powerful visuals as the world develops around you.

Hesitant recommendation. Like many smallish indie games, this is one that I would like a lot more if the serving size was bigger. I liked the visuals and the soundtrack, but there's not much meat. The areas are small, and the game is very short overall. It took me 2 hours of leisurely playing to get 100%, and there's really not much replay value beyond replaying a chapter to get a missed item or leaving the music on in the background if you didn't buy the soundtrack. It's difficult to discuss a game's length [in storefront reviews] without also discussing its price. I wouldn't expect or insist that the price be dropped, but I must admit that the price is one of the major reasons why I was expecting more content. That aside, there's some inconsistent execution within the gameplay. The majority of the game is basic point-and-click. Click on a door to go to another room. Click on a tape to put it in the tape player. Click on a key to get the key. Then there are parts where you're supp...

This is a game I eyed off when it was on the coming soon pile, it sounded interesting and it's not overly expensive VISUAL Look I love the art style and the sureal nature of everthing it's nice and nead with no tearing, though some parts of it can be frustrating trying to find things it's addictive and compeling SOUND This is the real leading edge of this game the sound and overal feel of the music is almost a Tubular Bells moment PUZZlES So this is primary a puzzle game, find a tape, find a gem in a sureal landscape. It's mostly cut and dry but it's the moving from room to room, messing with a tape to get a new landscape that gives this a real "HA" moment when you solve the puzzle. CONCLUSION If you like a little light puzzleing to solve this is a nice 2 maybe 3 hours to solve if you can wrap your head around it. The sountrack is rocking and very zen. What I would have liked is more puzzles and more levels. You can buy for sure, without the soundtrack your selling yourself short,...
