Once again, the gorgeous stained glass puzzles make the sequel to Glass Masquerade an easy recommend. As a note, if you're going for completion, there's no reason to do the puzzles on the easier difficulty. The easy versions are identical to the hard versions and don't reward any unique achievements.

A beautiful puzzle game with a stained-glass aesthetic. The fantastical art captivates with its stunning visuals and unique charm.

Second installment of Onyx Lute, “a tiny game development team”, as they describe themselves, Glass Masquerade 2: Illusions successfully brings a worthy successor to the jigsaw puzzle genre. Instead of having a standard rectangular outside border, like in physical boxed jigsaw puzzles, the player has to assembly an art deco stained glass window, compiled out of non-conventional shaped pieces. Rotation of the pieces in the right position is done automatically for you, upon retrieving a piece from the pool. Assuming the developers wanted to decrease the difficulty a bit, with this feature, given the fact this is not an easy, natural puzzle game. Some of the pieces have a circular marking at one of their border edge. These same markings are shown on the boundaries of the puzzle board as well. Showing where the first shard should be placed, to assure the players are off to a good start.Where on classic jigsaw puzzles, one tends to start of by laying the borders first and then group puzzles pieces by color and/or other distinct characteristics. This is next to impossible in Glass Masquerade, simply because of the extreme diversity of shapes and colors in the glass stained panes, which gives a refreshing experience. Shape of a glass piece is more important than what it resembles, to know where it is supposed to be placed. Pieces themselves are dispersed over rotatable turntables, concentric rings as you will, in a way not all shards are visible at once. This adds to the immersiveness of the experience, one tends to treat each piece at a time. Only a black silhouette of a shard is shown on the turntable. From the main menu, through puzzling gameplay, till a finished stage, all is animated in a pleasant fashion. In fact, for a game based on a more or less stagnant activity, there’s a surprising amount of liveliness to it all. Combined with appropriate chilling music and sound effects, the whole gives a trance-like experience, which effectively entertains the player for about 10-20 minutes of gameplay per puzzle country / exhibit.This game is astoundingly beautiful. Gameplay duration of a puzzle ramps up heavily when playing on hard difficulty, which is necessary to unlock all achievements. Fourthy achievements have to be unlocked to achieve a perfect game. Please be mindful, however, only 33 achievements are in the base game, for the remaining 7, all two paying DLC packs have to be purchased. To offset this, when all DLC is installed, there are a ton of exhibits available, guaranteeing hours of gameplay to enjoy. Overall, a perfect game can be easily achieved, given the fact you invest around 21 hours. Beware, if you are gunning for the achievements only, do not bother playing the game on the standard, normal difficulty level, but complete the puzzles on hard instead. I found myself coming back to the game on a monthly base, succesfully completing the entire game, together with its DLC, in the course of over a year or so. This is typically one of those games which gives me satisfaction, everytime, upon completing a stage. To glance at the beautifull glass stained window, equals to mirror what i had accomplished. Each time a puzzle is assembled, a deeper-meaning quote is shown, on which the player can ponder upon. Recommended for: - Jigsaw puzzles enthousiasts - Casual, relaxing type of gamers - Achievement hunters (be aware of mandatory DLC for a perfect game) Glass Masquerade 3 is meanwhile available as well.

I love this game. I actually bought all 3 in the series, plus the DLC. This is my 2nd time playing this one so the replay factor is high. It's a little confusing (to me) as to what I had completed and such, but I don't care. The music is lovely, the clink of the glass pieces is satisfying and the artwork is gorgeous.

I played Honeylines first and enjoyed it so much, I had to try the twisted carnival of souls one. I mean, of course:) The same enjoyable tinkling sounds and calm music is in this one. The puzzles are much more varied and there are little blurbs about each one which is cool. The puzzles seem a bit more challenging than Honeylines and that might be due to the colours. They are not as vibrant as in the first and the puzzle images are a little difficult to see the borders as well so it takes awhile to see what image you just assembled. Even so, I've been enjoying it!
