![]() Metacritic - (83 Critic Score, 7.8/10 User Score) There’s no violence to be found here just easygoing platforming, low-pressure musical riffing, and adventure gaming that goes heavy on the dialogue and omits the puzzles entirely." It’s gentler, too, telling a story about learning how to be who you really are, and not who someone else expects you to be. ![]() Evoking a variety of influences, from the artist Charlie Immer to the bright aesthetics of Lisa Frank, The Artful Escape captures the sheer cinematic thrill of watching your helicopter explode in a Call of Duty mission or falling off a cliff in a Naughty Dog set-piece, but transplants the action to a voyage that goes far beyond the realm of the real. "The Artful Escape is a visual treat-a platforming journey that takes players on a journey from Earth to the galaxies beyond and renders every location with gorgeous care. But if you’re up for an infectious mix of goofy good humour and brazen guitar worship, then there hasn’t been a musical adventure as excellent as The Artful Escape since Bill met Ted." It’s not for those who’re after a traditional platforming game challenge, and if listening to indulgent ‘80s-style guitar solos doesn’t appeal to you then Francis’ nonstop noodling may well get on your nerves. "The Artful Escape is a truly joyful musical journey through outer space in which the performances of its cast and the quality of its soundtrack are every bit as stellar as the eye-popping celestial realms it crisscrosses through. ![]() The Artful Escape is a gorgeous experience that makes you feel like a star, but challenge-seekers may need to look elsewhere." The game is breathtakingly beautiful, rich in music, and makes you feel like an intergalactic rock star while examining some thoughtful, relatable fears. ![]() "Like its protagonist, The Artful Escape leans into its unique identity and comes out the better for it.
