GameSpaceScott JeslisSep 20198.5/10Fracter is a dark yet hauntingly refreshing puzzle game. The game is short in story and length but priced fairly to match. Each of the levels was relatively complex and contained unique and fun brain teasers without causing one to become frustratingly mad. Any puzzle fanatic looking for a "quick fix" should add this one to their "wish list"!

LadiesGamers.comRio FoxOct 2020As a result, it’s a nice progression, smooth and yet fulfilling. Each room seems to have switches you need to activate before you can go through the doors. As you’d expect, the tricky bit can be getting to the switches! Once again, The Quantum Astrophysicists Guild have put their all in, and it’s been well worth it to play at least! It’s for gamers who aren’t afraid of the dark and like a good puzzle of all skill levels, so if you’re intrigued, give it a go!
