Replayability?

[Wall Jump Games]

I’m always conscious of time when getting a game, and this one seems to be short, especially considering the price tag. But if it’s replayable, than that will make more far more likely to want to play it.

It has difficulty modifiers, but it won't take long to replay and finish it.
If you want more replayability I suggest playing their new game Hades.

I’m more asking this because I’m going to get the game on my phone if I get it, and Hades is not there

Oh, well then.
It has a NG+ mode called Recursion.
In this mode enemies will spawn randomly and you'll have all difficulty modifiers unlocked from the start and also keep your Functions (skills) and levels from previous playthrough.
So as you can see it has a certain degree of replayability.

That seems cool. I’ll give the game a go then. (I also like story, so even if I’m not grabbed by recursion it is pretty cheap on mobile so it’ll hopefully still be worth it)

It's a great game either way, yes. hope you'll enjoy it.

It is very short (around 5-6 hours) but like the others said, there is the Recursion mode where you replay the game but with everything unlocked. Also, there are so many power combinations possible (you have to choose 4 powers out of 16 and each of those powers have two upgrades slots where you use the other powers in and they will have different effects on your "main" power) that you can easily revisit the game with a different strategy, different method, etc. I played the game once + the Recursion once, but I know I'll come back to it eventually to try different builds.

Also, the game is worth it just for the soundtrack, like every other SuperGiant Games. These guys are geniuses at making music. And I'm dead serious. I'm never sure if I enjoy the game more or the soundtrack more lol

Just started this game and can feel it's going to be a quick one. I have about 2 hours in, give or take, how long is this game to beat?

[SG's T.O.P]

Ignore Rattle-Squirrel. Play on whatever platform that suit your taste. Anyway I just look thru some gameplay and I would say it would probably be slightly less fluid in gameplay if you're playing on the phone, but for 5 bucks? Absolute steal man.

I'm so glad people still talk about this game. i've played a lot over the years and this one sticks out in my memory in a big way.

[BluesyMoo]

I still listen to the soundtrack and it brings back all sorts of imagery. It's amazing.

It has quite fine replayability for second walk-through, actually gameplay wise only on the second walkthrough you open all functions and slots for them. But still, finishing all achievements, second walkthrough and all side challenges won't take longer then 30-40 hours.

Just finished the game, and I can say that yes, even 100%ing the game doesn't take long, but, damn... Even though Transistor made me confused a lot by its story, going in blind through it was still a lot more worth than spoiling even a bit. Since I bought it on summer sale, it was really cheap especially considering where I live, so I kind of regret not paying more. I'll probably say more in a review later, but even if transistor isn't the best for the gameplay part, it's really, really worth for the visual parts.

For sure and glad to hear you also enjoyed it! I agree, it's a genre I'm not all that interested in but one can't deny it being a legendary video game that even so many years later, new gamers can genuinely enjoy. It's THAT good!
