Casual visual search puzzles, generally well-built, and a decent chunk of gameplay. Great for the right audience, but I would offer 2 notes: It's not at all like a jigsaw puzzle, despite appearances. When solving a physical jigsaw puzzle you have (a) the "goal" image of the completed puzzle in front of you, and (b) every un-placed piece laid out on the table, face up, and (c) (for most folks/cases) a very limited number of puzzle-piece shapes that you need to fit together. Glass Masquerade is roughly the inverse. Contra (a), you don't know what the final image is supposed to be. Contra (b), all un-placed pieces are face-down (and in a random orientation) except the 1 you click on to select and flip over and try placing. Contra (c), nearly every puzzle piece is a different shape. Now, one of my core strategies for solving jigsaw puzzles is roughly this: see a gap for an unplaced piece, look to the goal image to see what the missing piece should look like, scan the unplaced pieces on the table looking for a match by the colors/image-fragments onit, mentally rotating as needed. And none of that is even an option in Glass Masquerade . So, if you solve jigsaw puzzled like I do, note that this ain't that. Unplaced pieces sometimes appear mis-scaled before you place them. I played on Steam Deck handheld, so this may have been exacerbated by my smallish screen. But any un-placed piece appears to have a gold outline around its outer edges. Very often, many segments of the outline disappear after the piece is placed. And yet, some remain, because they represent the metal fillings between the panes of stained glass in the puzzle you're building. This means that pieces very often "look slightly too big" to fit into their correct place. This means that trying to match a piece to its correct position is never really a visual search that will generate a 100% match. So you need to look for "fuzzy" matches. These 2 caveats are enough that I personally left the game wishing I had just done a jigsaw puzzle instead. It was fine, but I doubt I will play any more in the series.

One of the first few jigsaw games I've played on Steam and I had a very nice time. Each puzzle is an image of something iconic from the real life geographic region on the in-game map and it truly feels like an international tour of imagery. The stained glass motif is very well done and adds to the challenge of the puzzles - each one took me anywhere from 2 minutes to upwards to 15 for some of the more difficult ones. Bonus: my spouse got interested in it every time they walked by my screen and even sat down to play one for a few minutes. This literally never happens. The BG music was a little melancholy for me, for some reason, and put me in a bit of a somber mood while playing. I'm sure not everyone will have the same impression. You can 100% complete without buying DLC but I do believe you will need to add the FREE DLC. Lastly, I was AFK for a good hour-ish so playtime is not completely accurate. 5/5 - I'm looking forward to playing the next installments of Glass Masquerade and definitely getting more interested in jigsaw puzzles for relaxation and keeping brain matter intact.

What a gorgeous game! Glass Masquerade takes the classic jigsaw puzzle concept and elevates it with intricate, stained-glass artwork. Each puzzle feels like you’re assembling a piece of art, and the calm, ambient music adds to the relaxing vibe. It’s challenging without being stressful, and the designs are so satisfying to complete. If you enjoy puzzles and beautiful visuals, this game is a must-try!

This is a really pleasant relaxing jigsaw game. It looks and it's really simple, but I love the ambience of the whole game, really chill and also enigmatic. You're just making puzzles, but it feels like you're doing much much more for discovery, history and humanity! aha There is a lot to do! and everything is gorgeous. Great, beautiful and cheap coffee game.
