A few years ago this would've been a flash game (probably free, probably completely surrounded by ads). Flash is on its way out and it's not 100% clear what (if anything) is going to replace it. I think there's space here for small games that you can explore for a few hours. I think with a nicer coat of paint and some more content this game could easily push up into the $5-$10 range.
Nice little puzzle game for the price. The difficulty ramps up quickly but once you get the hang of the mechanics it gets really satisfying to clear the board.

The concepts are easy to grasp but hard to master making for a rewarding challenge. Pleasing sound effects and a minimal soundtrack help create a relaxing atmosphere as you plot your next move. Short, sweet and well worth the asking price.
So far seems pretty chill. Def worth 2 bucks.
I received a copy of this before release for review, so my play time isn't reflected. Containment has an interesting balance between relaxing and intense. It's a simple concept at first, but quickly becomes more complicated as new elements are introduced. Art, effects, and sound are all solid. This is the type of game that could be used in schools to make learning fun. I'd be interested to see a study of kids playing games like this before being taught mathematical concepts.
One of those easy to get, hard to master games. The way to win is far from obvious. Easy to recommend to those like to think and strategize.
Containment is a wonderfully engaging puzzle game. The rules are simple, but the game can be very challenging. The art style definitely makes the idea of playing with bacteria not gross. My only critism is the difficulty curve going up too sharply in the middle of the game, but that's not terrible. This a great game, and well worth the cost.
Containment's a game that you can play at your own comfort. The fun comes from the risk-reward you choose as you progress through a stage. Do you push for more points as you let the bacteria grow? Or do you keep safe and minimize how overwhelming they become? The core mechanic of the game is clever and well built upon and if you have the patience to understand it you will be rewarded. On the flip side, because each stage builds upon each other, if you don't challenge yourself to take risks you might not ever receive that "eureka" moment. It's also got a lot of charm, so it's totally worth checking out if you love puzzle games! Disclaimer: I bought my own copy but am a friend of the devs.
Deceptively simple game, it requires putting in some thought before making a move. If you enjoy squeezing your brain a little on single-focus mode (getting rid of those maddening bacteria -_-), you'll probably like this. Cheap and very entertaining.
Poorly exsplained thats why I cant reccomend this.It has potential but some of the key elements are not exsplained. I dont mind learning on my own but you cant learn something that the developers had in their hed.
