Item: Puzzling Peaks EXE
Rating: 7

I have to say that I expected so much more of this game (mainly because of being paid and being from the AppSir-verse), so I got pretty dissapointed. But it is still good. This is not a platformer like the DERE EXE games. Instead, you have to rotate platforms to move a ball through different levels. That makes it the most rage-inducing and the hardest game in the series (seriously, it's VERY hard). Which makes it really fun at times and way too frustrating some other times. If you like this type of games, then it's great. However, this game can't be compared with DERE EVIL or Hopbound. Especially if we talk about the psychological horror, the metafiction and the backstory: this game is not scary or thrilling at all, even though it tries its best to be. There are just a couple of glitches here and there, a jumpscare, and that's it... There are little really meta moments. And despite the game has a cool and surprising ending, the story as a whole is boring, there's nothing new to tell if you have already played the other games. So, if you are looking for an original physics puzzle with some platformer elements or a good rage game, you might love it. But if you are looking for suspense, horror, good fourth-wall breaks, a good plot... an AppSir game, you won't find it here.
