If losing makes me want to get better, that's difficulty; if losing makes me check my controller, that's bad design. I Am Bread has a funny and creative premise. You control a slice of bread, avoid dirty surfaces, and try to reach a heat source so you can become toast. The concept is great and there is SOME satisfaction in learning how to move efficiently and complete a level. Truly, the biggest problem is the …

Unfinished, unoptimised, and kind of unfun. 5/10 I tried this back in 2015/16 when it was early access, and it was ok. Very difficult, the bread moves all slow and clunky, but that's kind of the point of the game. I thought I'd leave it to bake more. Fast forward 9 years or so, and it still says welcome to early access on the fridge. It has more modes, but my steam deck really really struggles with rampage mode. The …

Buy it on sale. The novelty of playing a game where the protagonist is a slice of bread trying to get toasted is worth the $2.59 (Summer sale 2025) price. I wouldn't recommend I am Bread at full price. Controls are clunky by design, the difficulty varies, but most levels are quite difficult. It's good for some cheap laughs and some short entertainment.

Incredibly silly, but you will take it seriously. You'll want to accomplish all the things, complain about the mechanics, and show all your friends. It's single player, but you'll want to play with your friends on the couch. The story mode is what it's all about, but the other modes are also entertaining. I've owned this game for years, and I keep returning to it every now and then. I actually finished the story for …

Have you ever woken up and thought, "I wish I were a slice of bread on a mission"? No? Well, too bad—because I Am Bread exists, and it will challenge everything you thought you knew about both gaming and gluten. You play as a humble slice of bread with a dream: to become toast. Sounds simple, right? WRONG. Your greatest enemies are gravity, dirt, and an absolutely savage physics engine that turns every movement into …

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →🥖 Well, it's not as fun as «Surgeon Simulator» or even «Goat», but the idea is definitely crazy, backed by a fairly simple story. Obviously, it's a bit of a "rage game", because physics don't play a big role in funny sims, but it's important here and at the same time can be bad. However, being a YT's title, ordinary players haven't really even tried to complete it (if you check the achievements). In fact, ~70% of them can be easily unlocked in under 5h, without any guides, but if most didn't…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Because we can't cover every game released. We've gone over this. There are a lot of layoffs, but still far fewer than the number of new games released EACH day. And we still can't cover every layoff. The Bossa one got picked up because I Am Bread/Surgeon Sim are popular and its angle.

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Bought this in 2015 because of Markiplier. Played a few times and put it away. Then came back on my steam deck while waiting for my car to get worked on and didn't realize how much more features they added to the game! I'm laughing my ass off most of the time playing zero G mode and bagel race too! Definitely recommend it and check out all the bread puns it comes with too. Lots of Dad joke bread puns as I came back to it

positive · AI labelView post →As of today, Jade Empire (2007) is the 369th best game of all time according to me, directly below I Am Bread and directly above QUBE. It is part of Tier 34. There are 48 tiers and 541 games in the list. #PixelRankings

neutral · AI labelView post →The amount of content in this game is intense. This is a genuinely challenging game that I am just not going to complete. If you enjoyed QUAP or Manual Samuel this is the game for you. There's also a Team Fortress 2 themed map in here if youre looking for more TF2 lore.
