About Love, Hate and the other ones

Know somebody who might be like this game?

Summary

About Love, Hate and the other ones“ is a mindbending puzzle game in which you take control of the two main characters Love and Hate. Guide them through 60 levels to take them back home to their beloved hill. You will encounter different Other Ones with unique behaviours, depending on whether Love or Hate interacts with them.

Storyline

It is all about Love and Hate. To be honest, it is all “About Love, Hate and the other ones”. The other ones are the creatures Love and Hate encounter on their journey back to the lovely hill they were taken away from by a mysterious red button that appeared out of nowhere. Which is exactly where it took Love and Hate when foolish Love pushed the shiny red thing.

On their journey you guide Love and Hate through dark caves, icy lands with heavy snow, steamy factories and old castles. While you proceed you get to meet more and more other ones that will help Love and Hate to reach their goal, the red button. They react differently on Love and Hate, so the challenge of rearranging all of them never gets old.

Bottom line: About Love, Hate and the other ones started out quiet alright. It later turned into a headache, though. It really isn't a BAD orBottom line: About Love, Hate and the other ones started out quiet alright. It later turned into a headache, though. It really isn't a BAD or HORRIBLE game. It simply stops being fun, way too soon.The game has a simple concept which is easy to grasp, It's basically a puzzle platformer where you have two buddies - Love and Hate, and you have to make one of them push a button. That simple. The way is lined with obstacles, of course, or we'd have no game, right?The trouble is that the game is not done too interestingly, and while being a good port of the mobile game, it really fails to feel "fun" all the way through. I've finished most of the levels but at the very beginning I felt I'm playing it just to finish the game, really.About Love, Hate and the other ones gets too boring, too repetitive, too tedious, and too soon, unfortunately. There are some challanging levels but most are really not (except for the very last 10-15 levels, maybe).Generally, not much was done too keep us entertained and intrigued. Leaving the gameplay aside, the graphics are OK but nothing special, there are barely any sound effects or any effects at all (except for the "I love you, I looooooooove you, I hate you" you'd keep hearing over and over and would probably want to mute eventually). There's no story whatsoever. There's nothing much, in short.This game is pure casual stuff, which is not necessarily bad, but here it simply doesn't work that well.This is not a bad game, not at all, but it really isn't anything too good. It's probably nice to beat a level once in a while, once in a week or so. But for games like this, I'd say to just keep them in the smartphone. Otherwise it gets pretty tiring.

So if you can get over a lack of graphical variety and animation and a modicum of brainteasing, you’ll fare well in this cute puzzle adventure.
