Review: Henry Halfhead

Full disclosure: with this game’s protagonist being a weird little bald guy with a big nose, I did feel something of a personal affinity with them before I’d even seen a title screen. Henry Halfhead, from Swiss developer Lululu Entertainment and publishers popagenda, began life as a university project where students were tasked with designing a character who had both a significant disadvantage and an exceptional power. The result was Henry Halfhead whose fairly-obvious disadvantage is that they are, as their name would suggest, half a head. Luckily for Henry, they’re not stuck that way forever, as their superpower allows them to transform into any object of their choosing.
