Critic Reviews
FingerGuns
By Josh ThompsonHenry Halfhead's unique concept and simple yet effective gameplay make it a great sandbox puzzler to cause mischief in. Despite wanting the game to go further with its concept and make the gameplay more ambitious, it settles for a heartfelt and relatable story instead, bringing more feeling into what you do as a result.
WayTooManyGames
By Leonardo FariaThis could have been an interesting title if there were actually puzzles, goals, and something else of substance for you to do. Instead, what we have here is something that feels more like a tech demo. Minimalist in design; mechanics that are sound and work well, but are never realized to their full potential; a really short duration that, still, somehow, manages to overstay its welcome after a short while.
KonsoliFIN
By Petri LeskinenHenry Halfhead is essentially a semi-open playground that rewards curiosity and ingenuity. It works best for children as the tasks are not very difficult or demanding. At first, playing with everything seemed refreshing, but the idea quickly became boring. The end result is a warm, playful but not very memorable puzzle game.
Explosion Network
By Jacob HegartyI had a great experience playing the role of Henry Halfhead. The story is engaging, and the gameplay is enjoyable. The game doesn’t drag on, as I completed it in about two hours.
Echo Boomer
By João CaneloThe big problem with Henry Halfhead is that the endint is strong, but the journey to the conclusion isn’t always consistent, and the message gets lost between attempts at mechanical inventiveness and repetition.
