Celeste
PC & Console · Platformer
A precision platformer with a real heart.
Bottom line
Celeste scores 9.1/10. A precision platformer with a real heart. Best on PC with a controller; Players who want a fair but real challenge Expect about 10–15 hours of play.
Our take
Celeste is a tight, assist-friendly platformer about climbing a mountain and, quietly, about mental health. The movement is exact enough to satisfy purists and gentle enough (via optional assists) to welcome everyone.
It is short by modern standards but remembering every room is the point. Play it on a PC with a good controller; the pacing is perfect for evening sessions.
