It is 2012 now. after watching indie game i got Braid and of course was amazed by how unique and multi-layered this game is. and like many times in my life after being stuck for a really long time and about to quit the game i found myself searching for the walkthrough.

I thought, “if i can understand just one of these puzzles i may be able to solve the rest myself”. I ended up here, and not only did i find this clever and even a little amusing, it convinced me to try again. I went back and figure 3 puzzles i couldn’t before.

I get it now. it is brilliant. and even though i still don’t have it all figured out, i am enjoying it tremendously. so thank you.

This is a one of a kind masterpiece…

Bump.
The cake was a lie.
Anyway, this game is great by the fact that you have to think to play,
with each puzzle like a question.
What do you have to do to get there?
Sometimes you have to skip a few, sleep on it and come back later.
Every single puzzle is astoundingly logical and possible, some leaving you feeling annoyed for not thinking about it sooner.
I did it by myself, but not all at once. It’s Possible.

Btw, does anyone understand the ending, as I found it confusing, whether or not to do anything, if I could.
Also, Nice walkthrough.

Everything it says in this walkthrough is a lie.

I want to thank you so much for sharing this walkthrough with us!

I was getting really frustrated because I managed to get all the puzzle pieces but got stuck big time on the last one from World 6… So in a moment of desperation I started looking all over the internet for some subtle hint – anything that would give me a push in the right direction but hopefully not spoil the game. And good thing I read the “Official Braid Walkthrough” first!

Armed with the new knowledge I finally figured that last piece just 10 or 15 minutes later, and yeah, I FELT VERY GOOD about it 🙂

Thank you for your advice.

Well, I feel like a kid with his hand caught in the cookie jar.

Obviously I came to this page by googling “Braid walkthrough” and felt guilty about it in the first place and now have totally been guilted out of it. I am completely enamoured with this game and I must say the few really tricky puzzles that I figured out gave me an extreme sense of satisfaction. After being stumped for a very long time on a couple of them I was going to take a short cut.

Thanks for getting me on the right track again.

By the way, any feedback on how long this game is taking people to finish on average? So far, for the entertainment value I have gotten I must say it’s worth every penny I’ve spent and I’m not too far into things yet.

I loved Braid and every detail that went into it. The music, the gameplay, the story, the puzzles, etc… if you love platformers and puzzles as much as I do you must play this game!!

You have has proved yourself to be on the cutting-edge just by releasing such a profound game on xbla. If you can create another game as beautiful and touching of a masterpiece as Braid was, then you will leave the cutting edge behind completely and advance ahead of it. This game is definitely the best arcade game on xbox live arcade, and I was more than willing to drop $15 on it. Kudos for such an accomplishment.

Great walkthrough! I wonder if the reason this type of walkthrough wouldn’t fly for other games is that other games aren’t made with the player in mind, just his wallet!

By the way, I’m so glad I forked over the $15 to play this on XBLA. If I could, I would gladly do it again, and probably even pay more. I downloaded the demo, not expecting much, and the depth in art, gameplay, and story more than sold it for me.

Thanks for such a great game, and kudos for such a great accomplishment!

i would like to try rephrasing your walkthrough as one word: experiment. the whole game is esentially one large experiment by the charachter, so you must follow suit. if everything behaves differently, find the interesting new quirks of that reaction. once you realize what’s going on, what you must do becomes clear. of course, doing it is another matter, but knowing the way it must be done comes as a part of the journey. one could get very philisophical with this game, and i wish more games were like this. kudos to all who worked on braid to make it such a wonderful masterpiece!

i beat the game and got every achievement except for speed run before i even considered a walkthrough. the game has deep meaning, and the ending blows me away. it is a fantastic peice of work. i loved the visuals and music, and the gameplay was phenominal. a walkthrough would have ruined the experience. braid should be the game developers try to learn from.
