About
Metrico centers around infographics. It’s an atmospheric puzzle action game that strives to create a unique mindset of its own. The idea was born a few years ago out of noticing how beautiful infographics can look as an art form. It was reinforced by seeing that infographics have become increasingly important in contemporary pop-culture. While they haven’t made their way to videogames yet, Digital Dreams feels it’s a place where they can work exceptionally well. This is not just because of their pretty aesthetics as much as it is about actively changing data and how that can be visualized.

Critic reviews
- TechRaptor6.2Metrico is an interesting game with some cool ideas in it. The puzzles are well designed, but control is poorly implemented into them. The whole idea of just walking into a segment and fiddling about for a bit soon becomes tiring, as working out the fundamentals before you even start on the actual puzzle devolves into trial and error. On a number of occasions I just didn’t work out what metric the game was tracking for a while, meaning I was stuck just flailing my Vita around and attempting every interaction.
- Push Square6.0Metrico is a visual and auditory delight: a sumptuous treat of a game with presentation that consistently impresses. However, a short running time, combined with occasionally shonky controls and a slightly frustrating central premise means that its gameplay never really lives up to its grand graphical grace.
