A Little to the Left

Extremely charming and full of relaxing vibes, A Little to the Left is a great puzzle game for those who love everything organized, and also want to do some puzzles in the meantime. With its beautiful sense of aesthetics, this game is a delight to the eyes at every moment, and it accomplishes what it wants (to generate a sense of peace with its symmetry) pleasantly.

Its difficulty varies from puzzle to puzzle, some of them are easy, and others will make you scratch your head until you figure out what the game wants from you, and yet, it never felt like it was an answer too out of the field, specifically if you want to unlock every possible solution in puzzles that have more than one. I'm pleased with its balance, and I didn't feel frustrated with it (something I really appreciate in these types of games).

Even though the main campaign can be quite short (approx two hours, depending on how difficult you find the puzzles), it has a lot of extra content. The daily puzzles, the seasonal ones, and a paid DLC keep the game fresh and something you can look out for in the future. I don't know if the devs keep planning to add new things, but they will be well received!

The achievements can be quite tedious, especially the ones where they require you to do daily puzzles for some months. But they aren't impossible to do... Not counting some of them that are quite glitchy and can be some work to unlock, of course.

Speaking of glitches, the game can be quite picky with your object positioning at times. Some puzzles require precise placement, and it can be a game of sorting every single object until the game gives you the okay. It isn't a game-breaking thing, but it can be kind of annoying.

TLDR; A Little to the Left is a really clever and aesthetically beautiful game with a lot of extra content to keep you entertained for a long time despite its short nature. Recommended to the people who enjoy having a specific manic order in their stuff, and casual puzzles that can ask you a bit of patience between the sudden difficult ones and the picky placement.

Oh.. My.. OCD.. I understand now why people love this game, I never in my whole life played something this satisfying!

Something about this game was not relaxing, like Unpacking. It felt more like a pastel OCD nightmare. Not my vibe.

This was a fun stort game and satisfying in the same way unpacking is, there was certainly a few solutions I had to look up to see why I wasn't right. Nice little puzzle game worth it if grabbed on sale for sure if your into just back to back puzzle solving. I played on my switch and using the touch screen made it a lot easier.

Played the demo during Next Fest 2022, will definitely check out the finished game!

I was recommended this game while searching for games similar to Unpacking. It does not feel relaxing like Unpacking at all, I don't know why but it stressed me out and made me really uncomfortable playing this game. I have no idea why i felt this way but I can't stop and I hate it.
