Although fun, fLOw is a twisted and flawed port of the slightly better PS3 downloadable.
The good:
1. Amazing Visuals
2. Soothing Music
3. George Lucas Helped
4. Fun
5. Good Controls
Sometimes games have visuals intensely striking. Good examples are games like MGS4 that can please with good graphics or just colorful in presentation. Another thing we will explore here is that the music is extremely well composed and easy to listen to. It is good for those times when you just want to fall asleep, but you can't. And, oh my god. George Lucas helped1 That at least means some points right there. Well, he is the god to every nerd these days. The game is fun, all thanks to some pretty good controls. But now for the bad:
1. Short
2. Too Easy
3. Repetitive
4. Limited Characters
5. Bad Value
Although fun, fLOw is an adventure that is pretty much done by the time you turn it on. Each creature takes a short amount of time to pass by. The game gets awfully repetitive, given there is not replay value. There is a limited number of creatures to play as, as well as levels. And to top it off, the 8 dollars is not a good bargain. I think, the game plays out as more of a exceptionable i-Pod app than a game, and a worthy free app as well.
fLOw is a inventive game. But it clearly, without flaws, could have been a lot more than this disgusting and ugly game. But I have to say, it may just be worth playing if you are one of the download junkies.
