[b]5/10[/b] An artistic game showcasing the beautiful art from an old illuminated manuscript, heavy on the artistic and light on the game. [b]What is it:[/b] A short puzzle game based on the illustrations from a 16th Century book. The framing is that you’re helping a little girl finish her book by putting back together the illustrations. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3303271652 It consists of four chapters, each with a few levels. The first one is a block puzzle, you have to arrange buildings of different shapes inside the cities. The second one is a pipe puzzle, you have to rotate tiles with rivers or roads to make a continuous path from one edge to another. The third one is a jigsaw puzzle, you have to assemble buildings from cut up pieces. And the fourth one is again a block puzzle, but with more pieces than in the first chapter. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3303271712 The art is beautiful, but that is copied from (or at least heavily inspired by) the book. The puzzles are very easy, and not very well implemented. The block puzzles are trivial because you are given a lot of 1x1 blocks that help you fill in any gaps you may…

Easy and short puzzle where you recreate images with tiny cities. Your mission is to help Eve read a book by solving visual puzzles. There are four chapters, each with a simple mechanic. The game is suitable for players of all ages and skill levels due to its casual difficulty. All puzzles feature cities and landscapes. When you finish a puzzle, you will see the real image on which it was based. The first chapter requires you to fill a grid with buildings of various sizes, the second chapter involves rotating tiles that must form a continuous path, the third chapter provides you with pieces that must be reconstructed, and the final chapter is the same as the first but slightly more difficult. Because each chapter has only a few puzzles, the entire game may be completed in an hour or two. Except for the third chapter, where you don't have a reference image and must try pieces one by one, the rest are simple. There's no reward at the end, so the inclusion of achievements could make it a bit more interesting.

I like this game, but I'm unable to save my progress following Chapter 3. I've done Chapter 3 twice now and both the Save options don't actually save anything.

For a small and short game, I really enjoyed the puzzles of this game. It was a very cozy puzzle game to do in a short amount of time. The best puzzles to me were the lines and the buildings, they got my thinking and noticing small details to figure out each piece. Puzzles do not have to be intricate and difficult to be enjoyable and entertaining. I absolutely loved the art style and the vibrant colors used in the puzzle portions of the game. They were fun to look at and the details were so nice, especially when said details plays a large part of solving the puzzles. When the puzzle changed into the actual artwork it was really interesting to see how close they image was to the art.

Pretty little game. The design is nice. It took me a while to realise that the mouse wheel rotated the items in chapter 3, but once I figured that out it was fine :)
