Positive Comment(s)

Taken as a whole creation, the game is as great on PlayStation as it is on PC. [June 2015, p.88]93Game Informer
Incredibly polished, with gorgeous visuals and terrific voice acting, only some difficult late-game puzzles stop Broken Age from being the absolute pinnacle of the genre.90God is a Geek
Broken Age is a new masterpiece created by Tim Schafer and his talented team. If you love point and click games, this title is a must play.90Atomix
Against all odds, Broken Age has proved to us that adventure games are all but dead, and that Double Fine and Tim Schafer still have the ability to surprise, astound, and humor us.90We Got This Covered
A remarkable legacy for old school graphic adventures. It’s a lazy port, but it keeps all its fun factor.79Hobby Consolas
Beautiful and lovely game. Funny, wonderful characters and amazing story. Not regretting being a baker.100Cacti-spikes
Broken Age is a point-and-click adventure video game developed and published by Double Fine Productions. + Good Characters + Story +- Smart Puzzles but Sometimes Frustrating80XxJoseManuelxX
Double Fine get me into the trip from 80’s when atmosphere and gameplay were the most important. So nostalgic mode in progress. But guess what graphics and sound are from 2015 🙂100Banjoconker

It’s not the second coming of adventure games, but Broken Age is still a memorable jaunt. [July 2015, p82]75Playstation Official Magazine Australia
Clever, funny, and beautiful to look at, but this is a game of two halves and the second one is such a peculiar tonal shift in terms of gameplay that even the story suffers as a result.70Metro GameCentral
Beneath the lavish art style and the high quality production…, Broken Age ends up feeling rather empty and desolate. [Issue#257, p.72]50Play UK
