NoobFeedBogdan Robert MateșJan 201788/100Pavilion is a competent puzzler with exceptionally good visual design and a wonderful soundtrack. I’d also recommend it to everyone else, for the overall experience of passing through a brilliantly designed world, while having a wonderful soundtrack as faithful companion.

Kill ScreenDavid ChandlerOct 201677/100Pavilion is a series of puzzles that become sentences. The painted visuals and Tony Gerber’s haunting soundscape establish mood for the actors in the narrative: protagonist as subject, his actions as verb, the ambiguous goal as object. I was simply there to put it in order or to play with its syntax.

Goomba StompMike WorbyFeb 20177.2/10While Pavilion is a sight to behold and packs a great soundtrack, it's ease and simplicity may turn off the more hardcore among puzzle fans. Still, it's worth a play for it's unique look alone.
