[PS3] Review Roundup - Closure

[PS3] Review Roundup - Closure
IGN - 8.5/10 - "Stylish and engaging, Closure's thoughtful and pensive approach to the puzzle genre should be applauded. It controls smoothly and looks and sounds great as it both punishes and rewards."

1UP - A- - "Nitpicks aside, Closure is a perfect example of why some of my favorite experiences on the PlayStation 3 come from PSN. Closure joins the ranks of Braid, Limbo, and Journey as titles that shun conformity in favor of delivering a daring and original vision. The game is crammed with challenges and collectibles that will hold your attention well passed the expiration date of most downloadable titles. Those looking for a game that treads entirely new ground will find Closure to be a gorgeous beacon of puzzle bliss."

Joystiq - 4/5 - "Closure offers up a unique puzzle experience set in a wonderfully moody environment caught somewhere between the designs of Dan Paladin and Edward Gorey. The curious properties of its light add a distinct twist to the traditional logic puzzle genre -- specifically by infusing it with a heavy dose of illogic. It loses a bit of steam in the middle, but dedicated puzzle fans will want to see it through to the end."

Games Radar - 8/10 - "On one hand, you can easily open another tab and find Closure playable in a browser. On the other, the PSN experience looks fantastic and offers Dual Shock support, plus trophies. Overall, the PS3 game is a neatly-constructed package that wonderfully showcases a smart and challenging puzzle game. It's a great way to dive in and invest your time in a unique and soundly designed experience. Regardless of how you experience it, just be sure not to miss Closure."

Destructoid - 7.5/10 - "Closure’s faults can’t prevent it from, at times, reaching some of the greatest heights in the puzzle-platforming genre. Once you get to the final ten stages, you are in pure puzzle-platforming bliss. Or hell. I suppose, bliss, then hell, then bliss again. But that’s the fun of a game like this: it demands that you be smarter than you thought you were an hour ago, and it leaves you feeling like you really accomplished something great by its end."
