6/10 Circles is a minimalist abstract puzzle game with 90+ levels. Challenging, simple, and short. Circles is an extremely intuitive minimalistic abstract puzzle game with 90+ levels. You guide your mouse through various circle based puzzles that increase with difficulty as the game progresses. No text, no distractions, just a relaxing experience with minimal sounds and music that correlate with your experience while you guide yourself through the puzzles. The puzzles themselves aren’t too difficult although I did struggle with a few levels. The gameplay was smooth and I didn’t encounter any bugs while playing. It took me ~1 hour to complete the game with all achievements. No cards. Free to play so there shouldn’t be any reason not to give it a try! Although the game description says there’s replayability in the different modes- there’s not much reason for it. Once I got my fill of the game, I didn’t want to go back into it. If you get stuck or are struggling, there’s no hints to guide you in the right direction causing some frustration. [u]Pros[/u] [list] [*] Intuitive. [*] Minimalistic.

This is an excellent puzzle/dexterity game, and it's FREE. Minimalist circle graphics, ambient background music/sounds, and the only needed input is mouse movement. There are close to 100 puzzles grouped into themes, and while they're all pretty quick once you know the tricks, it can be a challenge to learn the intended solution then get your brain/hands to do it. All of the puzzles require various combinations of movement speed, movement direction, orbit direction, etc. I didn't find any of them (except one in the 3rd optional group) frustrating, but they all require a keen mind and some decent mouse control. If you're stuck, you can analyze how things move around after the first time you fail, but I do wish that were allowed from the beginning. Again, it's free, so it costs you nothing to try out. Highly recommended, and I loved earning my 100% (the one where movement was reversed was awesome).

(update) It actually reminded me of Hiromi Uehara's Kung-Fu World Champion— that same jagged, kinetic jazz-piano "martial" energy transposed into a game context. 10/10 This is one of those rare works that genuinely surprises you—an experience that feels equal parts art and philosophy. If you map the game’s identity onto the logic of combat sports, the four opening stages and the four successive playthroughs (NG→NG+ cycles)​ can be read almost like this progression: Tai Chi → Sumo → Boxing → Fencing. Even across these shifts, you constantly feel the dialectic at play—offense and defense swapping places; advance and retreat; fast and slow; gain and loss; victory and defeat. On top of that, the sound design, score, color palette, art direction, and interaction all come together with a polish and flow that pull you straight into the world. Beyond all that, the game hides an even more fascinating layer inside its tutorial and mechanics. At first, you think you've beaten the four opening stages — but really, you were only learning the basic moves, traits, and philosophies behind different martial arts. That's the journey from practice to understanding. Then comes the next four playthrou…

A very well designed game , make your brain works like crazy. Must try game. Loved it and will try to complete it.

It's a very good game. It can be played both to relax and with quite difficult challenges. It was quite a fun 3 hours. ⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⣀⣤⣶⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⣦⣄⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀ ⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⣀⣴⣿⣿⣿⡿⡟⡛⡛⡛⡛⡛⡿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣄⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀ ⡀⡀⡀⡀⣴⣿⣿⡟⡉⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡙⣿⣿⣿⣄⡀⡀⡀⡀ ⡀⡀⣠⣿⣿⡟⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡉⣿⣿⣷⡀⡀⡀ ⡀⣠⣿⣿⡋⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⣻⣿⣿⡀⡀ ⣀⣿⣿⡃⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⣻⣿⣷⡀ ⣾⣿⡟⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⣿⣿⡆ ⣿⣿⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⣹⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⣸⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⣸⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⡄⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⣾⣿⡟ ⣹⣿⣿⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⣀⣿⣿⡁ ⡀⣿⣿⣧⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⣀⣿⣿⡏⡀ ⡀⡀⣿⣿⣷⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⣠⣿⣿⡟⡀⡀ ⡀⡀⡀⡻⣿⣿⣦⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⣀⣾⣿⣿⡋⡀⡀⡀ ⡀⡀⡀⡀⡈⣿⣿⣿⣶⣄⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⣀⣤⣾⣿⣿⡟⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀ ⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡈⡛⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⡋⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀ ⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡉⡙⡛⡛⡛⡛⡛⡉⡁⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀⡀
