Gravity Magician

Better than I was expecting, never buy at full price

cool puzzle with nice visuals, generally not difficult tasks, but it's a great game for the evening!

unique puzzle game. I don’t even remember a similar game with similar mechanics. With each level passed, the difficulty increases, so it’s always interesting.

Gravity Magician is a small-scale indie puzzle title developed and published by SUJIKO Media Group that demonstrates how a single idea, when executed with care, can carry an entire game. Built around the concept of manipulating gravity, the game places players in the robes of a magician exploring a dungeon filled with obstacles, traps, and environmental puzzles. Its premise is uncomplicated, but that simplicity works in its favor. Rather than introducing a multitude of systems or mechanics, Gravity Magician dedicates itself to refining one central ability and challenging players to think creatively with it from beginning to end. The game's fifteen handcrafted levels gradually expand on its gravity-based mechanics. Early stages function as tutorials, teaching players how to lift and reposition rocks to activate switches and clear pathways. As new hazards emerge, puzzle solutions become less obvious and demand more careful planning. Traps are strategically placed to punish reckless experimentation, encouraging players to observe each room before acting. There is an enjoyable rhythm to the gameplay loop: enter a chamber, study its layout, formulate a plan, and finally execute it succ…

The game is very barebones. ◯ No settings menu (cant even adjust the sound); ◯ Character moves slowly (no sprint button) and even slover when holding a rock; ◯ Graphics visually uninteresting (2-3 variations of rock would be nice, as well ass grass being different colors on each level); ◯ You cant put down a rock, only trow it. Need to place a rock on a platform? Pick it up → trow it → rock bounces off a wall and doesnt land on platform → pick it up → trow it again and again and again. ◯ No tutorial. Remember when you playing a game and there's graffiti on a floor showing you the controls? Yeah, not here. ◯ Corridors are too narrow when you holding a rock. You have to constantly microadjust your mouse, otherwise you cannot pass. But I was okay with all of this, until I got stuck in one puzzle where i just kept dying over and over to indestructible fire turrets.

A strange game, unusual and complex, I liked it. The price is attractive, the idea is great - I recommend it!
