What is The Basement Collection?
This single-player collection brings together separate 2D games built around exploration, puzzles, and physics-based platforming. You play through the games and unlock bonus games, comics, sketches, interviews, and videos rather than follow one continuous story.
For you if...
- +you enjoy short games with varied mechanics
- +you want to try an early Meat Boy prototype
Not for you if...
- −you want one long, continuous game
- −you dislike difficult puzzles and precise platforming
What players say
87% of 1,672 reviews are positive
Players praise the variety and the included interviews and artwork. Common complaints include uneven game quality, awkward movement, and a Time Fcuk achievement that requires a long sequence of community-made levels without saving.
