Snaliens

Great little sokoban/snake puzzler with some real head scratchers. A slew of mechanics to master, and some of the more challenging levels require a little out of the box experimentation. Don't be put off by the cutesy graphics, the puzzles pack a real punch.

我的第15关卡和别人的不一样 总感觉我的15关是个死局...也不知道为什么 也没人给我解决...

João Ferreira's Snaliens — which I still have to remind myself is snakes+aliens, not snails+aliens — puts you in charge of a trio of ship-wrecked aliens, each with a different ability, puzzling their way back to their rocket. Snaliens has quite a mixture of different mechanics and explores how they work together, building circuitry-based contraption puzzles out of the various cables, switches, gates, and other such devices. It's main gimmick, although it does not appear in every puzzle, is an object that the aliens can pick up which follows them like the body of a snake. This ends up having all sorts of great interplay with the other mechanics which creates some really fascinating puzzles. It's a little strange that the game didn't entirely focus on this idea, but the other puzzles without that mechanic were still very enjoyable in their own right. Perhaps the only strangeness is that the game is named after it. If you're looking for a pure puzzler with tons of clever puzzles and a lot of variety, this is it.

This sokoban game is boring if you ask me. You got reviews with play time of 1 hour saying it is a good game and I can't agree with that opinion. It is a casual puzzler that has some hardish levels. If you played many sokoban games like I did there is a big chance this game will have little to offer in terms of challenge and innovation. Not a bad game but I can'r recommend it.

Overall I really enjoyed Snaliens. It's got a varied set of mechanics and some great puzzle design that at its best packs multiple discovery moments in a single puzzle. There were a couple interactions that didn't feel great to me; most notably I wasn't a fan of the puzzles that hinge on the exact way snake blocks are added to your trail, which I found unintuitive.

Welcome to Sokoban where the level number doesn't matter and the order is made up.
