Сюжет (построен на основе реальных событий)
Ученые института GTRI (Georgia Tech Research Institute) в ходе эксперимента выяснили, что люди стали доверять роботам больше, чем здравому смыслу. В связи с этим в будущем роботы могут взять вверх над людьми и начнется новая эра - эра роботов.
Manipulated – это аналог известного эксперимента, где ты можешь проверить себя и свои возможности противостоять новой эре.

PROS:
There are simple yet intricate puzzles. They're interesting. Sometimes too vague, and platforming back and forth to solve them is a pain, but they're generally good.
CONS:
The platforming and mechanics. All of it. Especially the boss fights, and especially-especially the last one, which tests you patience.
Other:
If you're compelled to play it because others say that the ending was good: it's nice and fits the narrative (almost), but not mind-blowing or surprising, and not true to its name; it's a spoiler if I'd explain why, so I'll stop at that.
The best thing about this game is the promotional video, which you already saw at this point (if not, just go back up there to watch it).
Terrific puzzles, bad platforming, terrible combat.
Good Game for the price.
Charming puzzle game with good humor. It doesn't fully deliver on the advertised concept, but comes close enough to be well worth $5. It also does a good job of communicating controls/game concepts without an obnoxious tutorial.
The biggest downside is the platforming and combat. Controls are clunky, and your options for dealing with enemies are very limited. The game also rates you on whether you take damage in a level as part of the 'completion percentage', sometimes this is completely at the whim of the random behavior of enemies, so completionists be prepared to restart repeatedly or give up on getting the full score.
There are many situations where skill and thinking will not help you in a fight. Bosses will often stun-lock you as you jump over them and fly you into a hazard, either instant-killing or holding you there until you run out of health. Enemies will sometimes synch up with platforming sections such that you have to suicide into them or restart from checkpoint.
Difficulty in fights is largely due to health pool and very little else. The game may have been better (although a little short) if combat had been left out entirely.
Over all the core concept makes up for it and on the balance I'd recommend it.
I stumbled upon this game by accident, glad I did. It runs very well on an old MacPro. The platforming elements are well executed, Im grateful for the hints as I find some of the puzzels hard.
Many thanks to the developers
Glad to know I have "IQ 120 and above" :-)
Decent 2D puzzle platform game that will test your ability to think logically and use everything you see in the level to complete each section. The puzzles are very challenging but solvable if you pay attention to detail. Only negative is the annoying boss fights that requires you to learn its pattern. This game can be beaten in under 3 hrs and the story is somewhat surprising with a meaningful message. [8/10]
This game is by no means terrible. I didn't encounter any bugs and the game worked as intended all the way through.
The reason I don't recommend this game is because I didn't find anything in it that I found in any way exceptional. None of the mechanics are well fleshed out or taken advantage of - the game just felt bland and basic, lacking depth or replayability.
Its most interesting aspect by far are the puzzles. A difficulty curve is present and some of the later puzzles are even somewhat interesting and challenging. But even then, I would much rather have played just the puzzles themselves without the action / platforming parts.
Personally I felt that the story and atmosphere was weak. The game seems to be inspired by Portal, but it falls woefully short of its charm, intrigue, or wit. This might be a cynical view though, and I can see someone enjoying the plot just fine.
This is, however, the first game released by Wolfray Entertainment, and I do see potential there. I look forward to more games by these developers.
If you don't have any issues with the points I listed and are looking for a short little challenge, then please: Go ahead, play this game, and support the developers. It's fine. But being a platformer, puzzle game, and puzzle platformer veteran, I felt underwhelmed by the experience.
Nice platformer-puzzler.
PROS:
-Puzzles (medium complexity)
-Story
-Humor
CONS:
-Short
-Annoying boss fights. Most of play time spent with them, no brain needed, spinal cord only.
Cool game! Puzzles and shooter combined, sounds interesting? Well, challenge yourself to see how quickly you can finish this game and then challenge your friends to see who is faster and smarter :))
p.s. my time was about 2.5 hours
Great game, definitely worth to buy, developers make it easy to understand and play, so if you want test your brain this is what you looking for!
Challenging levels. PuzzlessSS. Good jokes. Fun art. Cool gameplay. Some music.
I am a big fan of platformers. This one will definitely be in my top... somewhere after Limbo, Inside and Braid.
Some advise for people who are thinking to buy or not to buy:
First : You are going to be playing as a little girl with superpower and your goal to save mankind from robotic control. (Sounds good)
Second : Voiceover is very unique and very "helpful".
Third: I don't personally like shooters (no offense guys ) but in this game i enjoyed this experience ( Killed all of them -Yahoooooo)
And finally i wasn't expecting that the end of the game will be so epic and "dramatic" at the same time.
I will definitely wait for second part.
Manipulated is very fun platformer. You should get into it and in a few levels you will feel that you want to play it more and more... Now I am at Level 6 and I am going to complete it tomorrow evening because I have a job in a morning :(
So... I just finished the game. Let's get to positive and negative parts of this game.
Positive:
- Ending. I guess it is the best part of the game. I don't want to spoil you this part, so all I can tell you... I really feel myself Manipulated, and that is awesome :)
- Puzzles. Some of them easy, but most of them are really good and interesting. Almost all of them are unique. And there are a lot of them, that is good. I like it.
Between Positive and Negative:
- Action. I guess this part would be completely Positive if bosses fight would be more epic. But still it's not bad.
Negative:
- Around 3hr and I done with this game. I want more :)
So I would recommend this game everyone who like puzzles and unpredictable endings. You guys can't miss this game. If you hate puzzles and you just want to shoot robots I guess this game not for you.
