Well, what can be said? Braid is a fantastic game, and certainly should get all the praise it does.

I completed the game within a few days and enjoyed every minute of it. The times when you recognize just how you're meant to solve this puzzle after looking at the screen for several minutes just bring a grin to your face.

Just buy it, seriously.
