great music fun puzzles. COGGERS

If you think you could like a sliding block puzzle game, it's definitely worth picking up. Some people dislike the timer/move counter, but whether you like it will really depend on whether you like speeding through these sorts of thing. I personally liked them a lot and the Portal 2 puzzles were great to get gold on.

Cogs is a pleasant puzzle game with a few easy levels and a few very hard levels.

AT A GLANCE [*] Game Name: Cogs [*] Original Release: 2009-04-14 [*] Genre Tags: Casual, Logic, Puzzle [*] Estimated Playtime (Campaign): 6-8 hours [*] 100% Achievements Playtime: 14-16 hours [*] DLC Required for 100% Achievements: No [*] Multiplayer Aspect: None [*] Replayability: Some [*] Recommended To: Casual Gamers, Achievement Hunters REVIEW Cogs is a casual, logic puzzle game. STORY There is no story, background, or setup to the game. GAMEPLAY The game has you sliding tiles to get the machine you are on working again. It plays like your standard sliding tile game, and enhances it with some 3D elements. PLAYTIME The game has some moderate difficulty. Some puzzles are quick to solve and others will take multiple tries to complete them. Every map has a single best solution so following guides could help with getting achievements. It takes around 6-8 hours to complete the maps and ~14-16 hours to get all the achievements. COMPLAINTS There is nothing specific to complain about with this game. REPLAYABILITY There is some replayability if you want to beat your scores or play challenge mode. RECOMMENDATION I would recommend this game to anyone that likes casual games or is an achievement hunter.

Cogs is a sliding tile puzzle game. If you like such puzzles, you’ll have a good time ! If you want a challenge, the move counter and the timer are there for you. I mostly enjoyed my time with Cogs but … some of those music puzzles are … annoying. The timing is really precise.
