Why play it

You’re in deep space and something’s collided with the ship. Main power is offline and you’re trapped. It’s lucky you have access to this walker control terminal. It’s a little old but with these two robots and some clever thinking you might be able to get power back online and save the day. Control two walker robots and puzzle your way through 30 levels to restore power, reactivate the life support and solve the mystery of the collision. An unknown voice on the other end of the terminal is your only guide.

Short, simple and fun, Factotum 90 is a must-have addition to any puzzle game fan's collection. With a unique premise and an interesting plot, it only ever tries to be exactly what it is and offers enough of a challenge to be a satisfying experience. A refreshing addition to the ID@Xbox collection.

I enjoyed Factotum 90 much more than the original Factotum. Complete with updated graphics and smoother controls, I would say the Nintendo Switch game is the definitive version. I definitely recommend checking it out if you're into puzzle-solving games.

I'm always a fan of running into games that tackle a well-known genre mechanic and add a twist, something Factotum 90 does admirably...

Factotum 90 is a solid, if simple puzzle game that doesn't require too much from the player. If you want a test, you won't find one here because it fails to capitalise on the mechanics it has. It lacks polish but that premise and split-screen controls are interesting enough to get you through the games 30 missions before they overstay their welcome. Factotum 90 occupied me for a solid 6 hours and this feels like a solid return on investment for a budget handheld game.

Factotum 90 is a fun puzzler with solid gameplay mechanics and an ever increasing difficulty that feels just right. You'll need to take it slow as you solve the smaller puzzles that will eventually allow you to exit a stage, and the game's trophy list is very rewarding. If you're looking for an entertaining 3D puzzler on PS4 then you should definitely check out Factotum 90!

Factotum 90 has some nice features and good ideas, but unfortunately just misses being really good due to a few minor omissions.

Factotum 90 is a cooperative game for a single person, in which the player controls two robots alternatively, working together in order to solve several puzzles, seeking to restore the systems of a spaceship and find out what collided with its outer hull and caused the accident in deep space.

All in all, Factotum 90 is not a bad puzzle game. I had a decent little time with it and at the cost of six bucks, I'd say puzzle fans should give it a shot. It's not going to blow anyone's socks off, but the game has a lot of heart. It's a nice little weekend game to play through at least once.

Some of the puzzles do seem almost impossible; all but those with the most godlike of patience will likely turn it off in frustration and storm off – only to have a eureka moment hours later
