Cons
Hype: While this game is certainly a great game, I think the hype on social media might be a bit overblown. It's a fun puzzle game, but it's not necessarily the game of 2022/2023. It's still worth checking out, but don't expect it to change your life!
Description: While the game does involve organizing household objects, I wouldn't describe it as a "sort, stack, and organize" game. I think it's more of a puzzle game than anything else. It's not as similar to "Unpacking" as the description might suggest.
Multiplayer: Adding a multiplayer mode would make it even more fun and challenging. A co-op system where players must work together to solve the puzzles could be a great addition. It would add a new dynamic to the game and make it even more interesting.
The bottom line for this review is that if you love puzzle games, A Little To The Left is definitely worth checking out. If you're on the fence about whether to give it a try or not, why not also check out my review of the game "Unpacking" below, and compare the two!
