[u]In short:[/u] Adjacency turns simple mechanics into smart and challenging levels. It might not be the most approachable, but after a while I found myself addicted and had a great time. The price seems pretty fair for the amount of content. [u]In long:[/u] Each of the 60 levels features an arrangement of shapes (triangles, squares, hexagons, etc.) with colored outlines. Your goal is to spread colors until everything matches the outlines. In terms of [b][u]mechanics[/u][/b] you click on a colored tile and it spreads to all adjacent tiles. This alone is rather basic, but soon different mechanics are introduced: Temporary tiles are destroyed after a single click. Dot tiles can hold a second color underneath the current color. Rotator tiles and switch tiles are mostly self-explanatory. My only gripe with the mouse-only controls is that rotators are operated with click-drag/swipe motions, which can misfire (LMB/RMB would have been better in my opinion). Once these mechanics enter the fray, the [b][u]difficulty[/u][/b] ramps up considerably. First you should try to fully understand the mechanics, but I'll frankly admit that I never realized just how brilliant and powerful the dot tile…

Pros: [list][*]There is no need for any introduction or instruction. The gameplay is extremely intuitive, and the difficulty has been appropriately dialed down for the first two levels. [*]A new mechanic is introduced almost every level. This makes the gameplay feel more fresh. [*]The puzzles appear to be very well thought out, as trial and error did not work very well in this game. As a result, each success felt honestly earned. [*]Unlike a lot of other games, you can skip puzzles if you get stuck. You don’t need to solve them all either—just enough of them to unlock the next level. [*]The music and visuals were tasteful, non-intrusive, and overall pleasant.[/list] Cons: [list][*]Right after opening the game, you might have to click the blank screen to trigger the dev’s logo. No, your computer’s not frozen. [*]Can be tedious to play for more than an hour due to the minimalistic nature of the game.[/list] A very unique concept, and a real challenge. Very cleanly executed. Overall, would strongly recommend!

Very good!! Hard until you can understand how that particular puzzle works. Most of them work around the idea of ​​permutation, in different ways, hence the feeling of agony at first. Most of them are not intuitive at all and will require good logical planning.

Average puzzle game with nothing new to offer. The achievments dont work so cant recommend this one.

I hate to give a puzzle game a downvote.... but I just couldn't get into this one. I wish i could pinpoint why, but I guess it's just personal preference.
