We're taking a spin through the world of Braid this week, this game where you play as a nice guy called Tim who's trying to rescue a princess. Or is he? The game is billed as a commentary on games design itself. Or is it? And the main mechanic is that you can rewind time to retry puzzles. Or do you? Yes, you do. It's a game well-loved by many for its obtuse nature so listen in to see how we fare with it.
