AGS Panel Rating

A unique concept and presentation with some interesting puzzles.

Pick of the Month

February 2022

"!" is a minimalist masterpiece, with all the locations in comic book-like panels on a single screen. Great variety in the puzzles as well makes this a true classic. Please note: modern computers may not handle the default resolution of the game. If it crashes at startup, open "winsetup" and tick the box "run in a window instead of full-screen". Set "Graphics filter" to "4x nearest-neighbour filter" in order to enlarge the window.

What a classic! Brilliant puzzles and all the locations on one screen. A minimalist masterpiece.


By Pilpoilplante on 29 May 2015

A good, short game as I like them! Interesting visuals, the puzzles were original, really Think Outside the box-like!

I loved it!


By leshaussebons on 10 April 2011

Nice short games, polished and entertaining.


By Mikael84 on 19 July 2010

Not very comedian more like tragedy and also naming policy is absolute no no to one letter name especially with mark like ! it will be a problem search this game later but overall idea was interesting.


By boyswillbeboys on 9 June 2010

It was okay yet kinda silly and I found the puzzles annoying more than fun. Pretty average.
