Poke ALL Toads

poke da toad. (unironically a really good puzzle game)

pokes you

This is a wonderful, unique, and extremely adorable puzzle game. While the pixel art is relatively simple, the surprisingly numerous and fluid animations breathe so much cute charm into these little fairies. However, don't let the cutesy aesthetic fool you into thinking this will be an easy romp; many of these puzzles are really quite challenging and introduce many unique mechanics that are very different from other puzzle games. The only negative part I found in this game was the inclusion of blue toads. These guys, once poked, will chase you until they're very close. Since they are mobile, every puzzle involving them requires you to line them up in precise locations. The game uses a tile system with everything snapped to a grid for a very intentional layout; everything except the fairies and blue toads. Since blue toads do not travel along the grid, they will very frequently be just a few pixels off from the exact location you need them to be. Had the blue toads traveled along the grid, there likely would have been no issue with them. While they aren't terrible to manage, they do slow down the pacing of the game and introduce a small layer of jank in this otherwise very polished experience. Regardless, this is still an amazing title! The blue toads really only affect about 15% of the levels and certainly do not ruin the game at all; in fact, many of the puzzles featuring them are very clever. Definitely pick this one up if you're a fan of puzzle games and looking for something unique!
