Seek Etyliv
Seek Etyliv’s minimalistic stylings work greatly in the game’s favor. Boiling everything down to a 3x3 grid does not take away from the challenge, and the aesthetics will keep you playing until every foe is vanquished and every puzzle is solved.

Reviews
- Clever and deep puzzle mechanics successfully implemented within a minimalist 3x3 grid.
- Stylish, polished and elegant minimalist aesthetic with clean UI and satisfying audio-visual design.
- Engaging dungeon-crawling roguelike mode with meaningful unlockables that extend playtime beyond the main story.
- Very limited content and small number of puzzles leading to repetition and reduced long-term replayability.
- The poetic story and narrative integration feel obscure, minimal, and sometimes disrupt the flow of gameplay.
- The roguelike mode recycles puzzles from main acts without adding substantial new challenges, causing frustration for some players.
gameplay
24 mentions Positive Neutral NegativeThe gameplay offers a simple yet deep puzzle experience centered around a 3x3 grid, combining around 60 puzzles with about 10 mechanics gradually introduced through a story. It blends minimalist, roguelike dungeon-crawling elements that encourage strategic thinking rather than brute force, though it can feel repetitive and short for some players. Overall, the mechanics are solid and effective, providing a unique and engaging puzzle challenge.
“Simple but deep in mechanics, short so it doesn't overstay its welcome - this is a great, small, puzzle game.”
“The dungeon-crawling aspect initially appealed to me since it forces you to have a better understanding of the mechanics, rather than just brute-forcing every puzzle.”
“You are getting a game with roughly 60 individual puzzles using around 10 different mechanics.”
“Most of the gameplay comes from a roguelike dungeon using the same puzzles you played in the main mode, which you had to do to unlock the roguelike mode anyway.”
“Seek etyliv introduces new rules to its base gameplay consistently enough to keep things interesting, but cannot help but become tedious after a playthrough.”
“I usually like minimalist puzzlers, but I found the gameplay here a bit repetitive–there is only so much you can do in a 3x3 grid.”
