Grab the Bottle is without question a very unique game. I can't really say I have ever played anything quite like it. Sometimes You seems to bring a lot of this to the table though. I have played many of their titles, and they are all different, and very fun. Lot of the times very simple achievements as well for all you Achievement Hunters out there. grab the Bottle is a wonderful story delivered through stages of puzzles. You start as a baby trying to grab your bottle , and work your way through out your life to an adult doing the same. Baby bottles, soda-pop bottles, juices, and coffee, etc. each level is visually delivered in a pop art style comic background with tons of obstacles to work your way around. You go from your house, to theatres, sewers, work,even a train and that's just a few. You control a hand with a stretchy arm that makes it's way around the level grabbing important items to progress. If you bump into three different things it is a loss of life, and you have to restart the level. The difficulty is way up there, good thing for some who can't compete a level it has a mode that tells you what to do, and another that makes you invincible. Although sometimes even with these some stages can be super tough. I highly recommend this to anyone seeking out a challenging game. The boss battles are near impossible at times it seems even using the cheats, but they feel so good when you accomplish them.

Grab the bottle is challenging and fun, but not perfect. I experienced a lot of issues on the One version. Like the sewer levels if you fail so many times and it asks you if you want to use the cheats, the buttons won't register leaving you with only one option but to completely reset your game. That is annoying, but yet doesn't prevent advancing. However I didn't get to finish the game , because there is a issue that did. On the work level with the soda/food machine the coin slot just would not register when I put irms into it, making it impossible to advance. I tried it the way it said, i tried it invincible, and even watched walkthroughs and did the exact same things, yet to no results. That really sucks , because I was enjoying it a lot. It is new on the One so Im sure a fix is coming, but it sucks to get so far to not finish, and that will damper the score a little.

Pros: Cool pop art comic style backgrounds

Catchy music

Challenging puzzles and unique gamestyle

Spot on Controls

Fun Achievements and Boss Battles

Cons: Glitchy issues, and broken level.

Overall 7.1 Despite it's minor issues Grab the Bottle is still one of the most unique puzzlers I have came across, and most challenging. It is without question a must play for fans of the genre.
