Last night I checked out the demo for the new Xbox Live Arcade, Braid. To start off in the start I was already angry at this game due to the long download time I had to wait through. My problem? Don't think so but maybe. However, when the download was complete I was treated to a very good demo of this game. To start things off I'll introduce you to the story. Basically you play a guy named Tim. Tim just broke up with his girlfriend, whom is a princess. They break up and the princess is taken by some monsters and of course it's your job to save her. Right from the start of the first level I had found something cool. As you read through the story books will pop up in front of you and as you walk by them the story is read. Braid, is also a very big puzzle game as you can reverse time to fix your mistakes. As you go through you'll collect keys and puzzle pieces which unlock more of the game piece by piece. The music and graphics are pretty good for an xbox live arcade game too. The only bad part of this game is that the full version costs 1200 microsoft points or 15 dollars US. In the end the demo was great and seems like a great game for puzzle fans alike.
