"Ant Workshop have created a tightly focussed title with a clear ethos and a truly original game mechanic. The difficulty may be off putting for some, but it’s intrinsic to the game. It knows it’s hard and doesn't apologise for it. I found it off putting, but I'm notoriously lacking in patience. Considering the £7 price tag, unique play style, great sense of humour and the many hours of potential replayability it’s well worth a purchase."
7.5 / 10.0 - GameGrin
"Despite being a fun game, Binaries’ Super Meat Boy gameplay style doesn’t quite fit a puzzle game like this. Mainly due to our feeble human inability to monitor two characters at once."
7.0 / 10.0 - God is a Geek
"A nice puzzle game that sometimes surprises the player, but doesn't achieve to offer something new or flashy."
7 / 10 - IGN Spain
“Infuriating, but in a good way.. Really nicely polished”
Mike Bithell
“Beautifully tuned: each level is the exact translation of a developer’s manic cackle into game structure”
Electron Dance
“Seriously, I’ve never wanted to kick a developer in the shins before I played Binaries.”

Features
- Make your way through over 100 levels of fiendish puzzle solving and death-defying challenges.
- Glutton for punishment? Replay levels against the clock to get the fastest time you can. Are you quick enough to get S rank on every level? (We’re not.)

- Choose your own route to completion through a non-linear map. Stuck on a super-tough stage? No worries! Just go and hone your skills on a different level.
- Laugh along with up to ten jokes! Look, we’re going to keep saying it's funny. You'll come around eventually. (Don’t worry there is no extra charge if you laugh more than ten times.)
No controllers were harmed in the making of this game.
