We all love a good quirky game. Something where the appeal is the uniqueness of its characters or the bizarre nature of the game play, like QWOP, that game where you had to control the athlete’s limbs using letters on your keyboard. Remember that? Nightmarish. Human Fall Flat offers a similar kind of experience, only less infuriating. With a flimsy humanoid protagonist aptly named Bob and a host of intriguing puzzles and levels, Human Fall Flat is likely to appeal to those who like a bit of playfulness injected into their video game experience. The question is, does it fall flat on its face?

The short answer is no. There are enough puzzles and different environments throughout the game to keep your interest levels peaked, that is if you enjoy puzzle-based video games, of course. Some may be put off by the game’s controls. They’re deliberately tricky to work with, as not only is it part of the game’s programming to make the puzzles so difficult to complete, but it also adds to the game’s comedy factor. It’s charming slapstick nature is what makes it so endearing to begin with and is one of its best features. It’s extra fun when playing with a friend or family member and watching them mess up a jump or a pull-up, a function that would otherwise be easy if not for the clumsiness of the controls.
What I really like about Human Fall Flat is that it is aware that Bob’s knack for falling off cliffs and accidental suicide can be a bit frustrating, given how often it happens. Usually the respawn time in some games can really put me off (hello, falling off Rainbow Road in literally any Mariokart game), but the developers found a way to beat this. As every level in the game takes place in a floating island, once you fall off you immediately fall back onto the island from above. Its an instant respawn, which makes the game all the more addictive and much more convenient to play.
I’ll be honest, I’m very hit or miss when it comes to games based around puzzles. I love the Legend of Zelda games, but when it comes to some of the trickier dungeons, I groan, sigh and inevitably do a Google search for the walkthrough. Human Fall Flat doesn’t quite reach this level of puzzle tedium; a lot of puzzles are pretty basic, easy enough for the average video game player or those of us who have grown up with them. Move a block to progress, or even fling yourself across the map using a catapult (which is also a lot of fun to play around with).
The odd couple did make me consider switching off the game and heading outside, but I realised I wasn’t kidding anyone and powered through. As the game has a linear level design, all the puzzles have to be solved in sequence, so if you want to progress you have to grit your teeth and get through some of the tougher stuff. A recent addition to the game is the availability of an online multiplayer option, where you and seven other brave souls can navigate the world of Bob and laugh at each other when you fall off the world by simply trying to walk.
The Bottom Line
All in all, there’s a lot to like about this game. Yes, there’s the odd element that makes it a little bit off-putting, such as the dodgy controls and the repetitive nature, but they’re part of the package. Human Fall Flat doesn’t promise anything it can’t deliver and it doesn’t try and hide what it is. It’s simple, it’s fun, and it’s always worth a laugh when you’ve got friends round. It’s a world worth taking a trip to.
Pros:
- Puzzles are genuinely inventive and some quite challenging
- The interface and aesthetic is very inviting
- Multiplayer friendly
- It’s lots of fun
Cons:
- The repetitive nature of the game might not swing it for some
- The controls are tricky enough that it may put some players off
8/10
Human: Fall Flat for Xbox One and other platforms is a game in which you have to beat levels one by one, fighting with dodgy controls, gravity, and treacherous physics. It's based on slapstick comedy and tricky puzzles solving. Only even the simplest of tasks are hard to fulfill when your spine and bones are made of gelatin.
Human: Fall Flat Gameplay: the squishier they are, the harder they fall
Human: Fall Flat is all about pain. Which you don't have to feel, luckily. Otherwise, you'd have to stuff your face with painkillers because here you will have to experience all sorts of traumas:
- Falling down from a construction site platform on a pile of bricks.
- Catapulting yourself to breach a castle wall.
- Getting hit with giant fan blades.
- Being entombed under an avalanche of stones.
- Riding a wrecking ball only to be smashed with it, like a pigeon with a shovel.
And so forth.
Seriously, danger lurks everywhere in this game. And by downloading Human: Fall Flat you sort of make a ridiculous death pact. See a door with the green Exit sign? Open it to dive into scary low-poly nothingness. A red door that possibly contains a key to beating a level? Unlock it to get hit with boulders and lose a fat portion of progress.
However, it's not that gloomy as it seems at first. Puzzles are actually clever, requiring you to build various contraptions and carefully analyze clues (including audio hints). That cognitive challenge together with Octopus Dad-like goofiness, thrilling high jumps, and bruising stunts evoke an appetite for that bone-crushing adventure within you. If only the doughy men had any bones.
Graphics: the color of pain
Perhaps what will enthrall you about HFL is its skin-editor. Imagine a 3D figurine made of hygienically white clay, which you can paint any way you like, using an app similar to MS Paint. Apart for premade costumes - policeman, fireman, some guy in a yellow jumpsuit -, you can design your own.
And your fantasy won't be limited at all. It can be Deadpool with a shamelessly visible butt-crack, a sociopathic clown with a tomato nose and a black-eye, Pringles mustache man, dressed as a somber roofer, etc. Just make sure you're plodding enough.
Along with the doughy main character, everything else even in Human: Fall Flat for Windows (7,8,10) looks low-textured. There are no details, nuances and pleasant visual trifles whatsoever.
But the game doesn't become repellent because of such rustic aesthetics. On the contrary, it feels like a silly and bizarre dream from the childhood, in which you are made of boiled noodles, can't fully control your body, but you have to run from someone. And it feels ok-ish all of a sudden.
Speaking of controls. Perhaps the best ones are in Human: Fall Flat for PC. Mouse for manipulating sticky hands + keyboard garner more precision and therefore less frustration. The same goes to Human: Fall Flat for Mac.
On the contrary Human: Fall Flat for PS4 allows deeper immersion into the game, for the thumb-sticks provide better feedback when you interact with objects and environment.
Share agony with friends
Over the time re-tries and knavish controls may turn this kooky carnival of traumatic experience into a buzzkill. Our Human: Fall Flat review strongly recommends you to call a friend to let the doughy man finally escape his nightmare.
E.g. in Human: Fall Flat for Switch you can detach Joy-Cons, re-sync them with your Switch and enter the split-screen mode. It's a superb way to prove to critics that judging from aside is easier than handling the biz personally. And also an infinite resource for decent trolling.

Helping Hand: Tips and Tricks
Some puzzles in HFF may force you into long, long head-scratching. We'll give you a couple of ideas to use, but remember: this game is about experimenting and improvising. So the right solutions are only those that work.
I. Catapulting
On the medieval level, you will be provided with a catapult and a pile of boulders to crush the castle wall. That operation may become quite arduous and lengthy so place yourself in the catapult and launch yourself to land behind the wall instead.
II. Climb like Spidey
Climbing can be more efficient:
- Grab a wall with one hand - left or right, both are fine.
- Look up then look down rapidly.
- Grab the wall higher.
And for those, who prefer to be fast and furious:
- Grab a wall.
- Jump.
- Press Left & Right.
- Climb higher.
Those methods require skillful fingers, so practice first.

III. Rusty Hook
If you manage to obtain a hook (it looks like a big cane), you can use basically any wire as a zip line. It can take you through the level, and all you need to do is to choose the angle accurately.
VI. Less Jumping, More Riding
If a windmill is featured in a level, you can use its whips for transportation. Jump on or hold on to one of the windmill whips and wait until you're high/low enough to jump to your destination.
V. Killdozer
The game grants you a privilege of operating heavy machinery. A bulldozer, equipped with a wrecking ball to be precise. Gain enough of momentum by swinging the ball and do the necessary wall-smashing.
VI. Motor Boat
There is a motor boat that you can get into your possession, but you'll have to row your way to it on a regular boat with paddles first. Rowing is done through Look up/Look down mechanics. But after you get the motorboat, you can hijack a whole ship - it's controlled with two red levers.
VII. Big Fan of Yours
Occasionally you'll stumble upon giant fans. They are powered by special furnaces that in turn must be manually fired up by you with chunks of coal. The giant fans are like iFLY indoor skydiving simulators and they'll propel you into the air NASA-style.
