Turner is a simple puzzle-platformer with mysterious exposition. Although it isn't a terribly long game, it does feature challenge versions of every level once you complete the game. The hand drawn story boards and pulsing music adds a lot to Turner's unique charm. As the player progresses through the game, new abilities are added, along with new challenges. Turner does a great job at leading the player level to level, slowly teaching them how to play. By the end of the game you will find yourself using every ability and skill you have learned along the way, none of which become obsolete. This game is fun, challenging, and intriguing, but there are a few features I would have liked to see. I really would have loved to see a "Reset Level" feature, as I had to go back to the main menu on level 182(?) as it is possible to get stuck. Also, since this game is ripe for speedrunning, in-game timers would have been nice. Or at least an individual level mode to try to get the best IL time...

Addicting platformer with interesting gameplay mechanics and a moderate difficulty level.
Great game and mechanics. As you keep progressing through the levels and patting yourself on the back as you made it past each one, a new challenge will appear, each with new game mechanics that make it more satisfying as you keep going. Each level you get stuck on you think you can never do it then you do it and it just gets harder. It was a pleasure playing this game and I wish to see more games from The Bean Boyz in the future. The soundtrack was amzing as it was exciting yet relaxing and let you think through the puzzles. I just wanna say amazing work to everyone who worked on it and I had tons of fun playing it aswell as my friends.
Great game, for 3 bucks you get more than enaugh content.I wouldnt put it in a puzzle-platformer ganre necause there arent any real puzzles really so dont exspect something like The Bridge. 8/10
I still can not believe how good this game is. The originality just kicked my ass every 5 levels. Totally worth it.
Disclaimer: I know the people who made the game and I followed the development process. The story in this game is very interesting and the music suits the gameplay of every level. The puzzles get harder and harder to figure out and there are new platforms and movement features that you can learn and master. If you are into indie games, this is a great game for you to try out. Especially with the opening week price of $1.95. It's pretty cheap for hours of gameplay and fun. And a little frustration... Give it a try.
I bought this only for the steam background
neat game
Full disclosure: I know those who make the game and took part in early beta testing. Turner is an interesting little puzzle platformer in which you utilize a power of turning the world around you to reach a goal. As the game progresses, you unlock new abilities in order to reach the end of the level. I enjoyed my time playing, and recommend it, especially at this low pricetag. However, here are my pros and cons for this game: PROS: - Art style. The hand drawn aesthetic works well with the theme of the asylum. - Soundtrack is decent. - Good General puzzle design (for the most part) - To add, the best puzzle are the slower-paced ones, in which the rotating mechanic is at the forefront - Some of the puzzles utilize the rotating mechanic in a really interesting manner. - Fun to play for most levels - Game introduces mechanics, old mechanics are not made obsolete. CONS: - Control. Note that this is for keyboard, have not tested with a gamepad. There is a slight delay from pressing the ...
Oh my, what a game.. [u] What is turner? [/u] Turner is a 2D platformer with a lot to offer. You play as a character named 'Turner'. Your goal is to get out of the asylum and find out why you were put there in the first place. You also need to collect pages in the game and tackle extreme obstacles by rotating, jumping and sliding in order to succeed. I have played this game for nearly 10 hours and I must say, i've enjoyed every second of it.There are some things that i would tweak, but overall, this is a true masterpiece. In this review, it clearly is my opinion. You may disagree with some of my points, but i feel as if i need to show a review of what i like and don't like to give you, the reader, a rough idea of what the game is about. [u] Pros! [/u] - [b] Amazing soundtrack!: [/b] Throughout the game, there are some amazing pieces of music which are played and I think they suit the game pretty well. Right now, i'm listening to 'Dark Corridors' because it's very mystical, i love it...
