Electrogical

Math, puzzling and a whole lot of "huh, nani the ♥♥♥♥?" lol I don't know how some of y'all beat this in no time at all. Did you use the NEKO to just tell you the answers? :P But no. This one surely had me working out my gyri and sulci figuring out how each level wanted to be solved. I appreciated the pacing in terms of scaling. It doesn't hold your hand but it helps you understand the concepts and the mechanics as they get introduced to you. Everything is color coded which I also appreciated so I didn't have to think too much about symbols but instead could just recognize everything purple is division for example. Really it's just a clever little thing and I totally wasn't prepared for another round after the first credit roll. lol Stupid cheeky. Stupid clever. Stupid fun. ^_^

A well thought out puzzle game with new mechanics every couple of levels that just make sense yet also surprise in their combinations. I found I liked most of the new mechanics, though some sections felt like they dragged on, and some puzzles felt trivial for the sake of connections. I adored the splitting paths (though there were few of them) and the map itself, though again I wish there were more. Would have also liked knowing how much further or how many puzzles were left. The hint system is also very generous. Chapter 1 is relatively short and sweet, but a bulk of the game is in Chapter 2 after the credits. I'm guessing this was an early access thing, the reason it was split, but if you get to the first set of credits and stop there you are missing a lot of content. Overall, it was a cute puzzle game, and definitely worth the time.

A hidden gem of a game that needs more recognition! The puzzles are challenging enough to get that dopamine hit of satisfaction without it being too frustrating. The addition of insight puzzles was a brilliant idea, showing you the mechanics and logic without giving you the answer (they helped me a lot!). The vibes, graphics and music were great and the story tied it neatly together. I'm so glad there was an extra chapter added recently, and I look forward to seeing more further down the line!

Excellent puzzle game. Sometimes there's some tough arithmetic thrown in, sometimes just getting to the exit is the problem. Just when you think you're done, there's *way* more content to discover, and tons of new mechanics.

very clever little puzzle game that just kept on surprising me with new types of pieces to use and figure out, there were a good handful of puzzles that were pretty challenging (especially in the second part), not so much that I needed to use a hint or guide, but I did have to step away for a bit to refresh myself. There's also some story that's being told here that I'm sure someone will find interesting, but I don't have any comments on that or the music as I was just trying to figure everything out while listening to a stream on the side. I'd give it a 9/10, def one of my favorite puzzle games of recent memory
