Fun physics puzzle platformer for a while but gets boring soon.
Human Fall Flat is a party game in which you control your limbs separately. You need to reach the end goal of each level together, while moving objects, pulling levers and enabling mechanisms.
You travel through different worlds with different themes like the desert, medieval castles, constructions sites and many more. However, the goal remains the same, reach the end of the level.
The charm of this game is, like mentioned, that you need to use both triggers and the thumb sticks to look up, reach up, grab ledges (or people) and perform certain movements. Sometimes you can pull up your teammates from a hard-to-reach spot, sometimes you plummet into the abys when they grab you.
My favorite activity is to grab the ground, look up and take on a twerking pose, shaking my booty.
The graphics are ugly, blend, and simple, just as the developers intended. The camera and animation movements however are decent.
There is a simple track that plays in the background that does not add anything special.
Off course, the controls are horrendous. This is by design, but grabbing a ledge with only one hand, realizing that you are too low and try to pull yourself up with 2 centimeters per minute is skin crawling. The cringe when trying to reach a platform or ledge, especially when it fails, is real and sometimes I wanted to pull my hair out.
Human Fall Flat is very chaotic and when you try to do the same thing with six people at once, it will fail miserably.
This makes for frustrating and hilarious game sessions, especially with friends.
And that is the whole concept here. When playing with friends, this game can be hours of fun, but when playing with strangers without any form of communication, task separation or teamwork, the game feels horrible and you just try to keep up with the rest, who already reached the exit.
For a game this simple, and sometimes, boring, I think it is way too overpriced. For me, this is the kind of game that I play on a LAN Party and never pick up afterwards. I had some fun with it, but I would not recommend it if you do not have a group of friends to play regularly.

Too good with friends.
This game is a must play if you are with friends. I had plenty of fun back then playing it with my friends. It's a really funny game and made for co-op. You can solo it too but co-op is just better.
