From indie developer, and publisher, Naisu, with their line of mostly puzzle, hentai games, comes Dark Fantasy: Jigsaw Puzzle. The first one in a series of three Dark Fantasy games.
This is the most basic jigsaw puzzle games can get. The pieces can not be rotated, hence they are always correctly orientated next to the puzzle layout field. They are not moving or floating around in the drawing space, like they for instance do in Pixel Puzzles. And they snap / slot into place way to easily. Though, the dark nature and composition of the puzzles make them challenging enough.
Art-style is dark-fantasy as the title represents. The girls and scenes depicted are gorgeous, made by talented artist Jose del Nido. 24 different art-puzzles are available.
The music is dark as well, somewhat mesmerizing and compelling. Though there is not enough variation, which makes you want to run your favorite music in the background. There is no option to do this in-game, however.
Twenty-four different puzzles can be completed, ranging from 12, 24, 48, 96, 192 & 384 pieces each, to achievement the perfect game counting 96 achievements. Something that can be done occasionally during a coffee break, eventually completing all puzzles for a total of about 8 hours of puzzling. There are guides available, in the Community Hub, as well, for those who want to cheat the game into easy and fast completion of the puzzles. Which makes this game suitable for achievement hunters as well.
To conclude, I had a great time relaxing while playing Dark Fantasy: Jigsaw Puzzle. Every now and then when I felt the need to relieve stress, I played only the 192 puzzle variations, effectively unlocking 4 achievements every time.
Recommend for: jigsaw puzzlers, dark fantasy lovers, achievement hunters and completionists.
Cheers,
