Great Permutator

.

Gioco di elevata e crescente difficoltà. Molto impegnativo e bello. Un grattacapo che ti può rendere calvo. Da ammirare il costo. Un gioco che sembra di altri tempi.

Do not support native secondary mouse click by the MagicKeyboard in Apple Mac OS X. Recommendation: use the preferences and go to Mouse and enable secondary mouse option, I hate this solution but.... well, is the only option available for this game.

A perfect mid-tier difficulty puzzle game where if you stare long enough, most of the levels will finally click. It strikes a happy balance between challenge and reward that'll keep you guessing and constantly trying to optimize your solutions.

It's a simple concept but a lot of the challenges are surprisingly difficult. Some of the levels feel a bit too dificult, but I'm probably just being a bit thick. The only absolutely negative thing I can say about this game is the music is really irritating. Not all of it, just some bits, which makes it worse in a way because then I don't want to mute the good bits. It also has a 'build your own level' feature which no where near enough games have. So if the actual levels feel a bit tough you can make your own and watch someone else fail at them. The only other game that I can compare this to is Zachtronic Industries' SpaceChem as both have gameplay that is very much like programming. In particular the Great Permutator's swap machine, randomiser, duplicator and what is effectively the equivalent of an if-statement make the whole game feel like a cross between some sort of esoteric programming language (an obscure language that exists purely for entertainment) and the kind of puzzle games that people used to make for handheld consoles, but with 16-bit console/retro PC graphics.

Great puzzle game!

Great game. Looks very polished. Neat graphics, hard riddles. I like it a lot :)

Bad.

Really braincracking game and really interesting and fun to play. I specially love the mathematical concept behind the whole game. I also like the fact that you have to find the optimal solution, not only completing levels. A good "simple" (it is more complex than it seems at first) game to spend a while with.
