Aggregator Elevator System

feels like learning linear algebra from scratch again very interesting concept, and it's free (from now on), go give it a try

A difficult yet addicting game, Aggregator Elevator System is a very unique puzzle [and maths!] game. Too difficult for me to beat but it's worth a play.

"Aggregator Elevator System" looks more like a browser/mobile app than a PC game. This simple "I can't believe this wasn't made in Adobe Flash" game is a bit like Sudoku on mushrooms. The idea is that you place various blocks and make sure the numbers add up right, but of course the blocks have different attributes so placement is quite the puzzle. I think this would have done quite well on the mobile app stores, and unfortunately it's quite understandable that it failed to appeal to PC gamers. This game features very lacklustre minimalist "art" for graphics instead of anything remotely contemporary. I'm sure the "developer" thought this would come across as "artistic", but it doesn't, it comes across as "really lazy" and looks bad as a result of their lack of interest in doing their job properly. Developers must try to understand that gaming is a visual medium, and gamers spend a lot of money on high end gaming rigs for a reason. And that reason is not so they can look at lazy, phoned-in half efforts like this. It's free... now, but it wasn't before. The developer was charging $5 USD for this. Price barriers, especially on low quality products, can be a direct cause of failure. It's a nice gesture for the game to be given away for free, but it also tells us that the game wasn't good enough to succeed as a paid product. Even though this is "free", it failed to appeal to the 120 million+ gamers on Steam. SteamDB showed the game peaked at only 8 concurrent players... this is a dismal public reception. This was so bad they couldn't even give it away. Bearing in mind that free games don't add +1 to your game collector count, should you bother adding this to your library and downloading it? Not this time. This isn't worth downloading. While this won't cost you any money, you get what you pay for, and sometimes, even when the game is free, it's still not enough.
