Max: The Curse of Brotherhood is a 2d Sidescroller where you screwed up and need to get your bro out of trouble. Beat it in 6 hours using a game controller. Difficulty is moderate, and involves quick-reaction reflexes. Good game for kids.
Gameplay - Very creative use of a 'weapon/tool'. Very artsy. Running for your life screaming felt right and the weight/gravity behind jumping was the best I've played in a while. I sometimes confused erasing something and making it, and aiming the marker using a game controller took a little work, but proved no problem. I royally sucked at timing jumps at and off swinging ropes - hilariously so.
Puzzles - The game gives you a snazzy marker you use to go from place to place, providing a wide array of small puzzles to figure out. This is where the game really shines. While I didn't get stuck anywhere hardcore, the amount of creativity that goes into the puzzles and the various ways you can do them is on the high end of awesome.
Graphics - Graphics are pretty. Graphics are P.R.E.T.T.Y. Pretty.
Plot/Characters - The plot is light-hearted, and you get a guiding voice that strings you on. It definitely keeps you engaged. And Max's little quirks and reactions to everything are great. There's not much variety in baddies, but all the baddies in the game are also great.
Replayability - Hugely replayable game. There are 75 'cameras' you need to find and deactivate, and 18 amulet pieces to collect. The game is also short, lending to fun speedrun opportunities.
Glitch - Once, in the water/rain level, I fell next to and got stuck under a water bug monster thing. When it happened the game wouldn't accept that I died and wouldn't go to menu. I had to manually close it. Afterwards, it returned me to my last checkpoint and everything was chill. There are probably other obscure glitches in there, but nothing that ruined the game.
If you like sidescrollers, puzzle games, need a good laugh, and want a game that's over all entirely fun to play, you have absolutely nothing to lose by playing Max: The Curse of Brotherhood. Buy it. It's a well-made game. Way better made than most on the Sidescroller Steam shelf.
