About
Nurikabe World is a relaxing logic puzzle game where you solve puzzles by creating islands and connecting rivers to create beautiful sceneries. Nurikabe World reimagines the classic Japanese pen-and-paper puzzle Nurikabe as a 3D game, where islands spring to life with trees and structures. Either play handcrafted puzzles, immerse yourself in the flow of infinitely generated maps or create and share your own puzzles with the integrated level editor.

In Nurikabe World, you create islands by placing water tiles. Each number must be separated into its own island with the indicated number of tiles. Completed islands will grow trees and other structures.
Getting started is easy, you only need to know a few rules to start playing!
All islands must be separated by water
The water must form one connected river
2x2 water squares, called "pools", are not allowed
Nurikabe World has puzzles of all sizes and difficulty levels. The crafted puzzles will take you through breezy 5x5 levels to 15x15 endurance-testing experiences and more. There are also a bunch of difficult smaller puzzles for bite-sized challenges.
Solving harder puzzles will require you to learn advanced solving techniques, which you'll learn along the way.

Relaxing puzzle game, great for long or short play sessions. The daily puzzles are a nice touch, and I haven't even looked into user-made levels or the level editor yet. Definitely worth the price. ♥
Mukavaa ajavietettä. Hienoja käsintehtyjä kenttiä + loputon määrä muita. Rahalle reilusti vastinetta.
Minesweeper 2.0
Très bon jeu de puzzle particulièrement bien soigné visuellement et auditivement ! Ce fut un plaisir de le 100% !
Incredible puzzles, great introduction to the genre, the slow increasing difficulty worked very well.
ルール自体は単純。 BGMが良く1ステージは短時間でサックリと出来る。 デイリークエや自動生成があるため、全てクリアしてもいくらでもできる。 欠点としてはそれほど難しくないこと。3段階の難易度があるが、最高難易度でも最初のチューリアルをせずに解くことができてしまう。 もっと難易度が高いのを追加してほしい。
Love this game!
Very relaxing, enjoyed beating the full campaign. Still occasionally come back for some dailies or user levels. I liked the styling, interface, and input methods, which is a little rare for puzzle games like this. I mostly used keyboard only. Well done!
this is a nice relaxing puzzle game and it looks really pretty
gives dorfromantik vibes, really chill
