TSIOQUE is a pleasant game with beautiful graphics and animations. However the classicism and simplicity of its puzzles will make it too easy for experienced players that are usually more challenged with this particular kind of game.

Charming visuals, puzzle solving, medieval fantasy, there’s literally nothing else you need in your life. I had a few frustrations here and there, but all in all TSIOQUE felt so worth my time; grab it for a rainy day, curl up on the sofa and prepare for a game best experienced first hand.

The narrative can be just as frustrating as the Tsioque’s wonky UI. The game doesn’t bother to explain which door you’re supposed to open next, the need to carry dragon scales with you, or what this magic potion does. These problems stem from primitive gameplay mechanics, as well as absence of dialogue, supporting characters and an in-game diary.

i played a lot of point 'n' click games as a child, so this game made me feel like i traveled back in time. the game was created with a lot of love and care. it has many cute and funny moments, and an absolutely unexpected but amazing ending.

PROS: - proper point-n-click; - story; - artstyle; - the logic of the puzzles; - price. CONS: - nothing remarkable to remember; - clichés. When a game takes pride in what it is, it's quite easy to recommend it!

Overall, the gameplay of TSIOQUE is a layer of entertaining complication. It offers up a little bit of new and a little bit of old and sprinkles it with a helluva protagonist that is fun to play. It doesn’t necessarily redefine the point and click genre, but it shows that there is more to it than you might remember. The gameplay is simply a methodically well put together masterpiece that will certainly make you wish for those LucasArts days when they ruled the roost in this genre.

A warm, modern twist on a classical story from a game with surprisingly intelligent puzzles. Its short duration and the lack of direction prevent it from reaching “indie darling” status, but we can think only a few other adventure games so lovingly made over the last few years.

Tsioque is recommended to someone who wants to play a nice, dark, smart, but not perfect, point 'n' click adventure, while its short duration and the eccentric finale are undoubtedly shortcomings that need to be seriously considered.

In Tsioque, solving the puzzles unlocks the story but the puzzles don’t really add much to the tale (which takes a somewhat abrupt change of direction near the end). For much of its length, the slightly post-modern fairy tale isn’t all that engaging, either, or at least not as engaging as the characters and visuals. I wish the developers had voiced their heroine and made the puzzles not just satisfying to solve but a satisfying part of the narrative.

A good traditional graphical adventure that, however, is far from achieving the quality of the titles on which it’s inspired.

There's more to TSIOQUE than meets the eye, but not enough to make the pedestrian gameplay worthwhile.

One of the best games I have played lately (of that kind). Story is really good and all together plot + graphics and gaming is on highest level. Long time I didnt play such a beautiful story telling game.

A short but legitimately great point-and-click adventure that wears its oldschool influences proudly, but without being the terrible punishing slog its forebears could be. Beautiful animation done by hand and a delightful story.

TSIOQUE’s late-game story machinations are a bit of a pill to swallow, but they aren’t enough to overshadow what is otherwise an enjoyable, gorgeous fairytale adventure. Review in one sentence.

Nice little game, the graphics are great i enjoyed playing it but it's way too short and the puzzles are not so interesting.
SummaryTSIOQUE is a dark but playful Point & Click adventure, hand-animated in meticulous, frame-by-frame 2D. Escape the clutches of an Evil Wizard and discover the secrets hidden within the spellbound castle of your ancestors. We take the role of princess Tsioque, imprisoned in a castle overtaken by the Evil Wizard.
