Nov. 2024

It is a really nice puzzle game where you have to connect all the same shapes together. It has a total of 650 levels + daily sets of random levels.

Oct. 2024

Best puzzle game i played on the steamdeck. The touchscreen works magic for this type of puzzle games. Finished the main game? Daily free new puzzles to keep you going!

Sept. 2024

A deceptively simple puzzle where you draw lines between shapes, but as the shapes and requirements grow it can become an interesting time waster with moderate brain teasers. The sheer volume of what you get also has some value, not only is the core game 675 puzzles, there's endless daily puzzles as well. If you're attempting to do the achievements, the volume of puzzles is potentially tedious. Set yourself a reasonable pace of 1 or 2 sets (of 25, broken up by letter from A to Z) at a time and you'll find it more manageable. --- Bottom line: At $3 or less you'll find there's a lot here, assuming you like simple brain teasers. --- [url=https://store.steampowered.com/curator/38232109/]While you are here, would you consider following my curator page?

By far, the MOST DIFFICULT puzzle game I've played. At some point I thought it impossible to complete. I'm only saying this because I didn't look at cheats to finish the game at all. Wanted to test my brain limit or whatever. So i'm DAMN proud of myself for finishing. I Perfect Game-d this. I bloody hope not to play anything like this again. Dear devs, don't make a sequel game or anything of the sort. Respectfully fuck off. But thank you for challenging me. Its a good difficult game to test yourself. I play it to feel satisfaction after completing it. If you wanna try it, go ahead. I know i'll never go back to this again. Good puzzle game.

Feb. 2024

This game started off as very satisfying puzzle game, both visually and audibly. It ended up being the longest time I've spent on simple puzzle game. There are 650 levels in the main game, with each section being just a bit harder than the last. Definitely worth a try.
