Cursed House 7

The seventh Cursed House installment features 105 M3-puzzle levels, and a lot of minigames (solitaire, spot the difference, HOS) which appear about every 3 levels. As in CH6, there's now a cursed town to evict demons from, this time a seaside village. The demons didn't freeze the entire place over this go-round, but there are horns growing out of the buildings everywhere... I did like that there's a hard difficulty mode. The difference between normal and hard modes is about every 5th level is changed where either there are black coins which cause an immediate forfeit if a black coin is collected, or else the obstacles are cleverly arranged such that doing things in the incorrect order will render the level impossible to complete. The "hard" levels are legitimately challenging, but the rest of the game varies wildly on difficulty. Powerups can only be had on levels with star tiles, because only star tiles will generate powerups, or on levels where gratuitous powerups are already placed on the board. I personally enjoyed the new lamp lighting mechanic and the papyrus obstacle. The solutions to many of the puzzles seems same-y after playing for a while, and there's a bunch of "solve half the puzzle and the rest will play itself". It took a few more games before the minigames got changed, but if you don't want to play a bunch of solitaire minigames, you can skip them and the game will ask you if you want to automatically skip all the solitaire after 3 consecutive skips.
