Game Of Puzzles: Nature

[b][quote][url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asset_flip]Warning: Asset Flip![/url][/quote][/b] Game of Puzzles: Nature is an asset flip, what Valve calls a "fake game". The "developer", Snkl Studio, took a template from ClickTeam Fusion, slapped a couple of stolen stock images on it, and dumped the results onto Steam as a cash grab scam. Don't believe me? Here's some other asset flips from exactly the same template, all shamelessly dumped on Steam as nasty cash grabs: [list] [*] "[url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/1077160]Game of Puzzles: Animals[/url]", copy + pasted from the same template by Snkl Studio [*] "[url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/1392130]Game of Puzzles: Slavic Mythology[/url]", copy + pasted from the same template by Snkl Studio [*] "[url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/1072590]Game of Puzzles: Dragons[/url]", copy + pasted from the same template by Snkl Studio [*] "[url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/1294280]Game of Puzzles: Dinosaurs[/url]", copy + pasted from the same template by Snkl Studio [*] "[url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/1091940]Game of Puzzles: Furry[/url]", copy + pasted from the same template by Snkl Studio [*] "[url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/1218200]Game of Puzzles: Space[/url]", copy + pasted from the same template by Snkl Studio [/list] Look for yourself... these are all exactly the same game! The products that result from asset flips aren't "real" games. They lack depth and content, because they're just simplistic copies of demos or tutorials. In this case, "Game of Puzzles: Nature" is just a basic Clickteam Fusion tile swapping puzzle game, and doesn't have any merit as a proper, fully fledged PC game, so this copy+paste of it can't be recommended. Asset flips don't involve any professional game development. Sure, sometimes they may change a few cosmetic things, swap out different assets etc, but at heart it's functionally identical to the asset they're ripping off. Asset flips are an insult to both PC gamers and to professional game developers who create genuine, high quality PC games. Asset flips like this are harmful to the gaming industry and to Steam because they reduce the visibility that sincerely made indie games should have. They make it harder for gamers to find genuine games made by honest developers. To cement the position of this asset flip as nothing but a cash grab, it was dumped onto cheap DailyIndieGame shovelware bundles very shortly after launch. Don't reward this morally bankrupt, unethical behaviour from Snkl Studio. [quote][b][url=https://partner.steamgames.com/doc/marketing/profile]Profile Features Limited![/url][/b] Valve have marked this game as "Profile Features Limited" at the time of this review. This is usually caused by poor sales figures and low community acceptance for the game (to date). Until this status changes, this game will not give you +1 to your Game Collector badge count, appear in profile achievements or any other Steam meta-accomplishments, nor can it be displayed in some profile showcases. If these factors are important to you, it may be worth holding off before buying this game.[/quote]
