"Biped is a unique co-op physics puzzler that has some wonderfully original ideas. A fascinating control scheme equally frustrates and delights, though it&s;s absolutely essential in providing puzzle mechanics that you won&s;t find anywhere else. It&s;s just a shame that …"

Read original review"Those who take a chance on Biped will find a charming, inventive romp that manages a whole lot with its complicated controls, but that very same control scheme, along with its short length and uninspired single-player component, means that it’s …"

"I went back to try co-op and realized that more than half of the game hadn&s;t been shown to me. I could see plenty of players simply never realizing those levels are there. This would be a shame as Biped …"

Read original review"Biped, with its cute, wide-eyed robots that look like neon Fisher Price toys, lures you into a false sense that you’re in for an easy ride, when in fact you’re in for a surprisingly deep and challenging action-puzzler."

Read original review"Biped is a unique 3d "platformer" with a really interesting way of moving your character. Entertaining in both single player and co-op, Biped is packed full of creative obstacles and unique challenges."
