God is a GeekMick FraserFeb 20248.5/10Airhead wastes no time trying to force itself around a story, and as such it remains a simple but challenging joy throughout.

Digital ChumpsNathaniel StevensFeb 20248.5/10Airhead from publisher HandyGames and developers Octato and Massive Miniteam is a gorgeous and challenging puzzle platformer that will put your brain to the test, as a good puzzle platformer should. The difficulty at times might frustrate some players, but the juice is certainly worth the mental squeeze.

Movies Games and TechDaniel WaiteFeb 20248.5/10Unfortunately, I don’t think Airhead will get the reception that it deserves. This captivating game is simple, beautiful, and a joy to experience. Moreover, the puzzles are intriguing, intelligent, and approachable. As such, this is a great indie experience that shouldn’t be missed. Accordingly, I recommend buying it here! Body is useless without a Head! As such, find your friend, keep on top of your air, and solve every problem.

ShacknewsLarryn BellFeb 20246/10The clever puzzles and vivid visuals can only do so much to quell the frustration caused by the unfortunate glitches and bugs I encountered throughout the game. However, if you can push through the myriad of technical hiccups, Airhead is a decent puzzle-platformer that simply needs a bit more tuning under the hood.

GamesCreedDaman ShelleyFeb 20242.8/5Airhead is a puzzle platformer that wants you to explore and uncover its meticulously laid-out secrets. Sadly, it’s too afraid to destroy even an inch of the mystery it has so meticulously crafted that it just leaves you wandering in the dark. Unfortunately, this drags the whole experience down as, due to how unclear it is on what you’re supposed to do, you don’t have time to appreciate its unique art style, ambient sound design, and interesting platforming mechanics.
