Lair of the Clockwork God
Ben is a die-hard, old-school LucasArts Adventure fan. His feet never leave the floor, and he’s happiest collecting any old junk he can lay his hands on, in the hopes of combining it all together to solve a satisfying puzzle. His cohort and sidekick Dan has decided there’s no money to be made in Adventure Games any more, so he’s going to be an indie darling platformer instead. You switch between both characters and using their unique abilities together in a race-against-time effort to stop all the Apocalypses happening simultaneously by teaching an old computer about feelings.

surprisingly good
i was sceptical about the platforming first, but aside from having to try some parts a couple of times (respawning points are set fair), it was pretty smooth. very varied level design and gameplay, with some fun out of the box puzzles. just some weird bugs/...

Really one of the best review explained everything...

Still funny, but I'm not sure this was a good idea
It's hard to give Lair of the Clockwork God a whole-hearted recommendation. To start with the worst part, this is not the game to pick up if you're in it for the platforming. The level design on the platform sections is decent enough but the building blocks...
