Auditorium Reviews

First of all I would like to thank my elementary school librarian for letting my class play the demo of Auditorium on the school library smart board many years ago, otherwise I would have never heard of this game before, for which I remembered it up to this day to buy the full version. Back then I liked the gameplay which is solving puzzles adjusting the position and size of the different nodes which influences the "music streams" to fill the audio bars. As an adult I appreciate the music and programming that it took to create Auditorium which was made by only 2 people, which shows they put time and effort into making the music and game. I liked how in some of the levels, it can be beaten without using all the nodes provided and there are multiple different ways to solve the levels. Each Act introduces a new node/challenge which keeps the game engaging and encourages creative problem solving for the puzzles. Some criticism I have is the game is quite old which has not been updated for years so no resolution adjustments, and the credits bugged when I beaten the game. Overall I am biased because playing this was nostalgic for me for acquiring and accomplishing something my childhood self could not do which has landed a soft spot for me. If you enjoy vector based puzzles and classical music, give Auditorium a try.
