Fe Forum

Fe is an eye-catching and reasonably competent 3D platformer that never quite lives up to the sum of its parts, and that's probably because so many of its parts are too familiar if you have spent any time around the "arthouse" end of the gaming spectrum. It has a few interesting ideas of its own, but they fail to stand out among the usual silhouette characters, vague story and syrupy strings of the soundtrack. The unique flavour of the art style and sound design are a brief delight yet both begin to grate due to a lack of real variety. Beautiful moments of platforming brilliance exist, but so do moments of needless frustration. Still, the game has its charms and is worth a look if you're either obsessed with or brand new to the last decade's worth of arthouse gaming. There are far more brilliant games in this genre to recommend, but Fe will certainly do you no harm over its short play time. Read full review
