Build Lands

It's fine for what it is. It wasn't what I was hoping for. -When building puzzles, you don't place the flowers or decorations, only the ground blocks. I was hoping it would be all of the pieces. -The UI is a bit rough for a casual experience. What goes where isn't clearly labelled. The main menu itself is an unassuming hexagon. -The keybinds don't seem handle everything. I wanted a way to toggle the map layers through the keyboard, and couldn't find one. I managed to stumble on something once to go up and down, but never to open the map layer — and it's pretty critical to building, so I'm not sure why it's ever closed. It would make more sense to have a "hide UI" feature for vanity than to force a player to open the menu for critical information.

Super fun and relaxing game. We have several possibilities to create our lands. I really liked it! I recommend!

The game starts out fine, fun little builder that goes row by row. When you finish the first set of Lands that unlocks the creative mode it becomes tedious for the sake of being tedious. If you like cheap building game this is an ok game for that. If you like puzzle games this is an ok game for that. If you like looking at the same looking three blocks putting the wrong block in it's place and having to undo it to click on the next block to see if that block is the same only to be wrong again and finally getting the right block for that ONE block only to have to do it again and again for a crazy amount of time to finish ONE puzzle then this is the PERFECT game for you.

Игра являет собой мозаику, которую надо складывать не из резаных двухмерных кусочков, а из трёхмерных кубиков. На “поле” у нас имеется полупрозрачный образец, который можно свободно вращать, рассматривать со всех сторон, делая слои видимыми или невидимыми. Простенький инструментарий состоит из кисточки, ластика, заливки, массового уничтожения и пипетки. Неправильно расположенные кубики услужливо подсвечиваются восклицательным знаком. В наличие четыре десятка уровней поделённых на три “эпизода”. К пейзажному и деревенскому блоку вопросов нет, но вот лавовый это что-то с чем-то, ибо предлагаемые в нём кубики зачастую плохо различаются, есть уровни, где три почти одинаковых чёрных или с лавовыми прожилками кубика и крутись, как хочешь. В игре присутствует редактор уровней с возможностью загрузки их в Мастерскую Steama, но представленных уровней от пользователей немного, да и забиты они наполовину каким-то безликим мусором. Резюме: можно потыкать в «Build Lands» где-то на фоне, а можно пропустить, ничего не потеряв.

good menu music <3

Found the game tedious, particularly on the lava section. A lot of blocks look exactly the same with minuscule differences. You got the three black blocks and two nearly identical lava blocks in the second area; you got the four checkered blocks in the third area. Turned a casual builder into a guess and check headache.

What should be a relaxing and fun game to play is actually quite buggy and frustrating. Disappointing. On steam deck, I ran into an issue where it crashed as I finished a puzzle, which makes every level I play on it crash as well. I cannot continue there. On PC, it runs poorly and is quite demanding. It freezes a lot on puzzle completion but will continue to work after. The menu is not great and lacks clear labeling, there is no tutorial. The placement of objects on higher levels is frustrating For instance, a block cannot "float" so you cannot hide the lower level, and you need to get your mouse on the exact spot on an existing connection if the lower level has nothing below the one you want to place. The lack of better visibility options makes this more tedious than it should. Yes you can click the hammer icon and toggle levels and their visibility, but no this is not enough with many things looking very similar. Color blind options would be welcome. The sounds are fine, the visuals fit and are nice enough to look at. But the game play really brings down my rating.

A very relaxing game, you have to build nice and beautiful levels and you can play as a "builder" mode - without time pressure or similar features - or an online one with a level editor. I really liked it and I'm looking forward to the next updates in early access.

Very relaxing game to play. Plenty of opportunity for creativity. A couple kinks to work out but the devs are active and listening to feedback.

It's a chilling game about build islands, that you can even share with other players your creativity, I highly recommend this game for those who like to just relax after a hard day at your job! The relaxing soundtrack helps you focus while creating your islands. Go buy it now!
