    • “Most puzzles are very simple, and I did not even have to look into a walkthrough once, despite some new mechanics being introduced.”
    • “My only minor complaint is that every game so far includes starter puzzles to introduce all the mechanics.”
    • “Every single one has a different look, different mechanics, but the same feel.”

New particle effects and artistic representations of puzzle solutions contribute to a relaxing experience, while the game runs smoothly on various systems. Overall, the visuals complement the gameplay effectively, making it a visually appealing puzzler.

    • “Absolutely stunning visuals and some new particle effects for the new pylons/crystals.”
    • “The graphics are crisp, clean, and pleasant to look at, and the music (which is the same as the previous games) is very pleasant and relaxing.”
    • “The game runs very well on my PC, and the graphics are simple. There is also no story. That said, this seems to be a one-man fun project.”

  • story
    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's story is largely criticized for its lack of depth and motivation, with players expressing a desire for a more engaging plot, such as a narrative involving prisoners and their quest for freedom. While the gameplay and puzzle mechanics are appreciated, the absence of a compelling storyline and character development detracts from the overall experience.

    • “I hope there's more where this came from, but it would be more enjoyable if they had some plot or some kind of story to motivate the player. It doesn't need to be anything complicated, maybe a setup in the past when these puzzles were used on prisoners, and you are one of them trying to get your freedom.”
    • “It's a great game, but it doesn't really have much story to it.”
    • “I think a plot and some voice lines would do it wonders.”
    • “The game runs very well on my PC and the graphics are simple; however, there is also no story. That said, this seems to be a one-man fun project, and in general, I can see that puzzles start out really easy but have a nice slow difficulty curve.”
  • music
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The music in the game is described as pleasant and relaxing, maintaining the same quality as previous installments. However, some users expressed a desire for more variety and additional tracks to alleviate repetitiveness, though overall, the music remains enjoyable and not bothersome.

    • “The graphics are crisp, clean, and pleasant to look at, and the music (which is the same as the previous games) is very pleasant and relaxing.”
    • “I would have liked more variety in the music (additional tracks to reduce the repetitiveness), but the music is very enjoyable nonetheless; I never found it annoying or grating.”
