Blockwick 2

Highly recommended for puzzle fans and those with a logical mind. Move the blocks around so that all the colored ones touch, each color to it's own. I used the mouse to click and drag the blocks. There are 9 worlds or sections or whatever you want to call them, and in each one they introduce a new concept that makes the game harder, such as blocks that are linked and move together or sticky blocks. For completionists there are 2 more facets of the game other than just solving the puzzle. 1. Find all the white orbs that are hidden behind the blocks. There is one orb in each level. 2. After you solve the puzzle try to get the blocks so that they cover the weird symbols to get illumination. That's where it gets tough. There are multiple ways to solve some of the levels. The graphics are nice and colorful. The music is whimsical but does not intrude on the game. It's really nice background music for a puzzle game. I like it a lot. I've got over 7 hours so far and have just started the 7th world. UPDATE: Finished all the levels in all 9 worlds. Now trying for all illumination--very difficult. Some seem impossible. But after getting all of the moon pearls (the white orbs hidden in every level) it revealed a secret 10th world! This game is awesome. One of the best puzzle games I've ever played. UPDATE #2: They added more puzzles, but they are easier than the other ones. I think they were the ones in Blockwick 1 on mobile app. Also, the price has increased since I bought the game.

Blockwick 2 is an excellent puzzle game with a beautiful asthetic and wide range of fiendish sliding block puzzles. It's good value for money too as the puzzles will keep you entertained for 22-35 hours. I highly recommend it.

Blockwick 2 is a logic game made by (yet unknown) indie studio Kieffer Bros. Gameplay revolves around moving differently colored blocks that, in the end, should end up connected to all blocks of the same color. Although it's already offering a good challenge on the basic principle, there are more optional objectives for those who seek bigger challenge - there is a hidden pearl in every level, that can grant you a hint in any level, and there are special marked places on the level, on which you have you connect the colored blocks if you want to feel really proud of yourself. (You can connect them anyway on the level and feel proud too, you won't just "illuminate" the level.) Developers made a definitely great work on level design and overall game design, it feels really polished, and both relaxing and stressful, depending on your patience with harder levels and illumination. There are hundreds of levels, so don't be afraid this would be just a fun for few hours, especially if you'll want to illuminate all the levels - expect tens hours of gameplay! Blockwick 2 is definitely a sweet puzzle game with a low price tag. There's nothing that would keep me from recommending this game, so... buy it, it's worth it!

Very enjoyable block-pushing puzzle game. There are ~300 puzzles, and one thing is obvious: while the game principle is old ("tried and true"), the designer has done everything right in this incarnation. The game starts you off with a very short tutorial even before you get to the main menu. Levels are unlocked sequentially, and you can either progress the easy way (move blocks around until you find the moon pearl), solve a puzzle by making all blocks of the same color touch (interesting when there's more than one color), or you can find and cover up 3 mysterious floor marks with your solution pattern (illumination). This can get tricky because for some reason those marks are in hard-to-reach places - I wonder why. ;-) There are also special blocks in later levels to keep things interesting, but I find that even with the not-so-special blocks, the levels are very well crafted and not boring. The interface looks clean and never gets in the way: since you have these three levels of completing a puzzle, you tend to want to keep fiddling with it after you solve it to get the illumination, and the game lets you do that. It simply never pushes an intrusive "you're done now" window in your face, but it does let you know when you've solved it in an unmistakable way. There is no timer or move counter to bug you, you get the task done (or not) and move on. This probably plays well on smartphone screens, but it plays equally well with mouse control: the precision comes in handy when you need to funnel small objects through narrow spaces. This game distills everything that's enjoyable about block-moving games in one colorful package. If you enjoy this kind of puzzle, there's no need to wait for a sale: Blockwick 2 is well worth its price. [i]The game contains 160 base levels and another 144 levels from a "basics" set that is slightly easier. A more difficult DLC could be ported over if enough people buy the PC version.[/i]

There are 304 puzzles in total (plus couple of easy tutorial levels before you start the game.) And unlike a lot of other games they aren't loaded with tons of really easy puzzles so that alone will take a lot of time to work out and finish. If you are looking for a long puzzle game to pick up 10 mins or 1 or 2 puzzles at a time then check this out. It plays like a slide to exit puzzle game but there aren't any exits. If you aren't worried about getting all achievements then you can just play each puzzle the easy way (well most of the time) and connect the same colour blocks together. If you want more of a challenge then move blocks away to find and reveal all glyphs, you then have to move the colour blocks so they are on top of the glyphs and connected together (illuminate a level). This gets more complicated as the game progresses as sticky blocks, sleepy blocks, move large amount stuck together are introduced. There is a reset button but also a much needed undo button for one move which seems to be sadly rare in puzzle games but thankfully all bases are covered in this game. I suggest you start with blockwick basics which is a whole game itself - 9 chapters - 144 puzzles. It plays like it was the first game - a bit easier but still, if you go for all illumination in basics (which isn't surprisngly needed for any achievement) it will take you a long time to do. If you find all pearls (one collectable in each level hidden underneath a block) in blockwick 2 - 9 chapters, then a 10th chapter will become available for you to play. It is very zen somehow moving blocks around and I found myself constantly daydreaming, not because the level was boring but even when I was really stuck it relaxed me somehow and on challenging levels this was good! Very clever, well thought and unique game and although this is a portal game it never felt or looked like it and although I waited for the summer sale the full price of $8 is worth it as you will get your money's worth out of it - an easy 20+hrs game and unique in having different levels of hardness (just finish level or illuminate it) so you can choose what to do. N.B for a couple of achs, to get the pearl wall ach, I had to leave game and go back into it before it popped. Also the get every pearl in blockwick ach (all 10 chapters in B2 as well as all 9 chapters in basics) it only popped when I went back into every chapter of both games from main menu.

Blockwick 2 is one of the best puzzle games I have played. Every aspect of this game is spot on: the basic premise, the visual execution, the amount of variation, the difficulty and learning curve, the music and the sound effects. They all contribute to feeling it's fun to play the game and it's satisfying to solve the puzzles. One very noteworthy thing about Blockwick 2 is that the game doesn't need to end if you're stumped by one particular puzzle. In each puzzle, there is a pearl hidden underneath one of the blocks. Find that pearl and click on it and you can move to the next puzzle if you want. Sometimes it's a good idea to skip a puzzle for now and move on, just to be able to focus on a different problem for a while. At the end of each chapter (= a collection of 16 puzzles) you can check the overview and go back to the puzzle(s) you skipped to complete the chapter. When I got a bit frustrated by one or more puzzles in a chapter, I went and did something else for a while, but it never took long before I was drawn back to Blockwick 2 to give it another go. This is a rare thing for me. So yes, I certainly recommend Blockwick 2 to anyone who even remotely likes puzzle games.

[i]Blockwick 2[/i] is an advanced spin on the classic puzzle of moving blocks around a grid to unscramble a picture or pattern sequence. However in B2 you only have to arrange same-color blocks so that they all connect. And while that may sound pretty easy -- and is at Level 1-- it gets a lot more tricky when new kinds of blocks are introduced: [list] [*]blocks required for the solution but are fixed in place [*]blocks that don't touch but move in tandem [*]blocks that form chains and move like a caterpillar [*]rolling blocks whose color is what is currently face up [*]blocks that are only movable after the same color touches them [*]blocks that immobilize colored blocks if they touch [*]sticky blocks that attach to others and have to be peeled off using other surfaces [/list] Combine a bunch of these and you can have a formidable challenge in front of you. Not to mention some puzzles are so tightly packed or have blocks with such odd shapes that getting enough space to move larger ones seems almost impossible. There's also a bonus win scenario called "illumination" where the color blocks are arranged properly but also cover three glyphs on the puzzle. This usually involves quite a bit more experimentation to position the blocks correctly. I did most of these on my own, but there were many where I had to go to a guide because I didn't want to spend hours trying to figure them out. The game can be a little frustrating in that regard, but there's also a means of skipping a puzzle if it's too hard so you can come back to it later. The interface is smooth and intuitive -- really it's just click-hold a block and drag it around. If you like puzzle games I highly recommend this, although it will take a LONG time to finish if you are a completionist. The main game has 10 levels and 160 puzzles, but there is also a "Basics" section that adds 144 more, albeit less challenging puzzles that were a part of the first Blockwick game. I didn't bother finishing them because after 27 hours I had my fill! However the full retail price on Steam gets you more than your money's worth. [b]Rating: 9/10 Puzzle-lovers, this one will not go easy on you! The tranquil mood music and soft, bright beautiful design if perfect for concealing a casual yet devilishly difficult game. You'll be dreaming about colored blocks in your sleep![/b]

an outstanding craft that, at first sight, looks like just another Android-move-the-block game. cleverly built puzzles, with vibes of Quell https://store.steampowered.com/app/344480/Quell/ a colorful, clean, minimal UI and art style all surrounded by a nailed and chilling background music. a lesson for all puzzle devs out there: 4 years after release still a game you can grab eyes closed, paying full price and reviewing after seconds of gameplay. [i]huge[/i] congrats to Kieffer Bros.
