I’m skeptical of slick, stylish videogames. The style often feels like a cover-up, a compensation for some lack. Even when it’s not, it can put me off. I want warm, not cool.

Here we have the fascinating grammar of comics – the lines, the gutters, the unfolding of space as time – confused with film cuts and reduced to sequence. And rudimentary sequence at that. Up-down, left-right, right-wrong. But stylish as shit.

Framed’s simple logic puzzles remind me of those I used to find at the backs of magazines in the dentist’s waiting room. In other words: not the future of videogames.
