PlayStation Network cards to buy the game with can be purchased at your local Lowell GameStop, Wal Mart, or Best Buy as well as PlayStation Plus cards. The game is also available on Xbox Live for 1200 Microsoft Points.
The main gameplay mechanics involve using russian stacking dolls (a.k.a. "nesting dolls") to assume the abilities of various characters throughout the game. If a character is standing with their back turned to you then you can stack into them. Every character has it's own ability. There are also unique abilities and dolls and a lot more than meet's the eye to this game...."

Stacking was released in 2011 by Double Fine and remains one of their oddest and most intriguing titles. It's a puzzle game masking a serious message, but is it worth picking up today? Jump Dash Roll plays with some dolls before giving its opinion in this week's Brutal Backlog review.
Carlos writes "March may not have provided equal delights when compared to that of February’s backward compatible arrivals, especially with great games such as GTA IV, Borderlands 2 and Hitman: Absolution arriving amongst the masses on Xbox One last month, but that doesn’t mean we’re any less content when new additions come to the program.
Today sees a fresh batch of titles join the fray, but with so many to choose from now, are they worth going back to or should they be left on the shelf forever more?"
Yes, but it's not there yet for me. Bummer. Was looking forward to reliving that one today.
Yawn. I don't get it. Xbox doesn't seem to want to open the purse strings to bring in new IPs and with the selection of bc games, you can't tell me developers wouldn't want to get more.money on old IPs. I'm sorry to say, but Xbox feels like they care less and less for the gamer's...
Stacking kicks ass! Fresh and fun game!
cool
I'm on the fence about this game... is it really that good?
this is a great game! wish i had time to review it!
This looks good!!
