Bob Came in Pieces

After trying for three hours to come to grips with this game's mechanics, I decided to give up. I don't think [i]Bob Came in Pieces[/i] is an outright bad game, it's just a game I can't get used to, nor do I find any fun in it. The basic idea is sound and actually somewhat original: controling Bob, you have to travel through several levels in order to collect the missing parts of his ship (Bob is a spaceship that came down to earth in pieces). There are several obstacles on the way, most of those objects that have to be removed or replaced (well, in the few levels I played anyway). By putting together Bob in the right way on the work-pads, you can figure out how to overcome the obstacles/puzzles: putting an extra engine in one of the slots makes a huge difference, and there's a "pull beam" that lets you pull away objects. At least, theoretically. Since the controls of this game are off-target to say the least, controlling Bob once some pieces of the spaceship have been adjusted, becam...

I don't recommend this. Most of the play time goes to putting your ship together for one 15 second puzzle, then spending another 5 minutes rebuilding it to make it past the next. Then again, it's probably more of a kid's "stick round peg into round hole" game.

Too fiddly and frustrating to prove enjoyable.

Belated review. This indie physics-based puzzle game is pretty fun. Your goal is to navigate a spaceship to the end of a level. Sure, it sounds easy enough, but there are always obstacles in your way. The main hook of the gameplay is mixing and matching parts on your spaceship in order to solve physics-based puzzles in each level (pushing and pulling objects, smashing through things, etc). I found the controls to be a bit touchy at times and wasn't a huge fan of the ship-building interface, but overall, there's not much bad to say about this game. Just go into it without any grand expectations. It's pretty laid back and is a nice way to kill a few hours. There are also a number of advanced levels available, in addition to the main story chapters, for those looking for a bit more challenge.

I think Ludosity is an amazing game company. All of there games are fun and enjoyable, has good mobile games and even the free games are really good especially Iji. There was only one game I haven’t played for a while which was the game in question, and.....It’s middling. I’m just gonna talk about the gameplay since the graphics and story are fine. I’ll be honest, the gameplay was fine when it started, the controls were fine, the ship building was a good way to get people thinking about the puzzle and some of the later levels were pretty good. But there’s one mechanic that really bugged and really got me frustrated during my playtrough and that the pull mechanic. the object you are very either very stubborn to move or are so light that they get out of your grip. Now I doubt this would bother me if this was after later when you get better engines but you get this pretty early one and the first few levels you use it are so frustrating I wouldn’t blame anyone for giving u...

I see they are trying to make a challenging game but it doesn't get challenging, most of it is just tedious...

This game was so boring I couldn't even be bothered to finish this sent

This is probably the worst game I've played in my entire gaming history spanning 20+ years. Firstly, the trigonometry and geometry calculations on particle collisions wasn't even done. The programming was done by a 5 year old with no beta testing what-so-ever. Frequent crashes, freeze ups and level resets. Frequent cases of the "ship" bouncing from one side of the map to another with no controller input. Cases of where the "ship" simply moves from one area to another, and I'm not even in the same room. Numerous instances where environment borders completely inhibit the movement of the "ship" forcing either reset of last "save" point or complete level reset. I'm happy to simply finish off the achievements and then followed by a complete uninstall. If I had some say, I would force the developer to refund the entire purchase of all copies of this game to all users and then promptly ban them for life from ever selling another product on Steam. Atrocious programming all round. Mathematics w...

[h1]I tried, I swear I tried[/h1] Bob came in Pieces (Peace) is a small indie game based on gravity ând ingeniering, you have to create your robot, upgrade it to use it as an explorer like a platformer game, resolve gravity/static/mechanic problems. The concept is interesting on the paper but kinda boring in the game (for me). [list] [*]Gameplay: 4/10 [*]Graphics: 5/10 [*]Music: 5/10 [*]Story: 5/10 [/list]
