PuzzleSquare

7.5/10 A geometric puzzle game in Chinese watercolor setting. Good: - art is in traditional Chinese watercolor style and gives the game a unique feel - the core mechanic is to tilt the field and shift several pieces around while some tiles are impassable. All this feels fresh. It seems to be some traditional game in China that I don't know of, but at least I haven't seen this ever implemented on PC - there are several stages, each having different additional mechanics. E.g. in stage 1 you just need to bring the black piece over the white tile. In stage 2 you need to bring 2 black pieces each to a white tile. In stage 3 you bring a piece to the black tile but also need to have 3 other special pieces end up touching it (red, green and blue), and it would light up as white. So-so: - in about 40 minutes playing and after beating about 15-20 levels (about half with 'S' rating, with min possible moves) I still couldn't figure out the core principle/math behind it. Maybe there isn't any, and each puzzle level is simply a hand-crafted unique setup that has to be solved by essentially a random game tree search. The fact that 'Z' key undoes the last move and the game saves the history of moves + there is a hint suggesting you should undo to shorten your solution - all point at the fact it's really brute-force depth-search game. Just in one of the levels (I think it was 2-2) I had an "aha" moment and an idea how to solve it which I then implemented. With all other levels it was basically a random sequence of tilts that eventually lead to victory (or maybe not, or after 5-10 restarts). It didn't feel satisfying. Usually I wouldn't be able to re-win a level. So, either it's just that I'm too dumb for this game or it's indeed simply a type of puzzle that has no generic principles behind it - the music is some solo flute melody. It's relaxing at first, but after a while gets quite repetitive. The game would definitely benefit from more and varied tracks Bad: - nothing really For its modest price of about $2, this puzzle is definitely worth a look. It still feels pretty casual, and you will probably enjoy completing it in several sessions. Btw the dev must have found out in playtesting that most people fail to win most of the levels. So, the next stage unlocks after you've won about half of the levels in the current stage. That's probably a fine solution, as you will see all the mechanics even without dealing with the more complex levels. Though the problem may be simply that the puzzle in its core just challenges the wrong thing. Nah, maybe I'm dumb. Okay, I'm dumb.
