Good Game! But... support for my platform (Linux) was silently dropped. I purchased this game before 2018, when the game had an officially supported native linux build. I was never informed in-game. After looking up my error i discovered support was silently dropped. I paid for multiplayer, it doesn't work anymore. I paid for Linux support, it's gone now. I COULD play today, but compatability is a whole can of worms …

Friends r definitely the best part of gamin. The floppy, weak controls of the little characters used to drive me nuts, but playin with friends totally makes up for it. Jst have one pal whos good at it n u wont keep getting stuck. The devs still release free map updates to this day, which alone makes it super worth recommendin.

Grab some friends, lose some friends. Human Fall Flat is basically a physics sandbox dressed up as a puzzle game and that's perfectly fine. The wobbly controls are the whole point, and once it clicks, it's genuinely fun to figure out the levels, even if half your time is spent watching your blob man ragdoll into a canyon for the fifth time. Solo it's a decent time. With friends it's an absolute disaster in the best …

This game is pure chaos, physics, and laughter. I have no idea how I ended up stuck halfway up a wall holding a plank while my friend flails across the map, but it was hilarious. The controls are intentionally wobbly, which makes every puzzle both challenging and absurdly funny. Solo or co-op, it’s a game where failure is guaranteed, but so is the laughter. Bonus: it’s one of the few games where accidentally …

Here are the drawbacks of this game after playing it for several years: 1. When climbing walls, either the left or right hand often stops responding. 2. Frequent white screens. 3. Constantly showing "Connecting to server" indefinitely. 4. Sudden crashes with error reports during gameplay. 5. Every time someone joins the room, the latency spikes significantly. 6. The FPS counter shows several hundred frames, but the …

88% of the 243 Steam reviewers we collected recommend Human Fall Flat. The complaint that keeps coming up: technical issues: unresponsive controls, white screens, crashes. Deal-breaker or nitpick?
Critics, per Wikipedia
Human: Fall Flat received "mixed or average" reviews, according to review aggregator website Metacritic. Fellow review aggregator OpenCritic assessed that the game received fair approval, being recommended by 39% of critics. Dan Stapleton of IGN recommended the game for watching rather than actually playing, praising the slapstick controls, humorous animations, and character customization. Zack Furniss of Destructoid enjoyed the replayability of the puzzles and praised the multiple solutions each puzzle provided. By February 2018, more than 2 million copies of the game had been sold across all platforms. According to Curve, the sales of the game were boosted with the addition of online…

The mechanics of this games are so simple yet make it a lot of fun. The controls are super easy and very simple to play and for all ages. One thing I'd recommend is to add voice chat which can be optionally turned on and off by the players.

Decent game, remember Kwebblekop, Jelly & Slogoman playing this so thought why not me and Loopster give it a go.

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The only reason I got this game was for the new content and the nostalgia. Way back years ago I had this game on my nintendo switch lite. This game was a very good part of my childhood. I stopped playing the game around when the miniature level came out. Now with a PC I can experience all the shortcuts and glitches I experienced before. Also the music design is beautiful and I didn't appreciate it enough before. This review is a thank you because the joy you brought me, the memories.

As a 10 year old, he really likes the game and finds lots of the animation and chaos and creative solutions quite funny. Even though you fight more against the controls than the levels, it is still such a rewarding feeling, when you finally hit the exit. Acutally, you can get quite good in controlling the character, so after some tens of hours the levels become more and more fun. We have finished nearly all level, but there is still a…

neutral · AI labelView post →A fun physics-based game, but the loose controls can feel frustrating at times, especially when trying to complete precise movements. The puzzles are fairly simple, and much of the fun comes from messing around rather than the actual challenge. It is more enjoyable with friends, but playing alone can become repetitive after a while.
