Critical HitDarryn BonthuysOct 20157/10Pulse is a great idea, translating the isolation of being blind into a funky adventure of discovery. It's just not much more than that really, as the concept can be short-sighted in the long run.

DestructoidJed WhitakerOct 20156.5/10If Pulse had a longer, more in-depth story with evolving gameplay, it would be easily recommendable. As it stands now, it feels more like a proof-of-concept than a full-fledged game.

We Got This CoveredAndrew HeatonOct 20153/5 starsWhat Pixel Pi Games have with Pulse is a charming tale of peril and danger, all thrown squarely at a character with a major disadvantage.
