About Minimal
To solve the puzzle, you need to click on a tile to change the colors of its neighboring tiles so that the expected pattern is reached. We have prepared lots of challenging levels, each including a PAR that displays the minimum number of turns necessary to complete the level. While appearing deceptively easy, the gameplay gets progressively harder to ensure the player is challenged at all times.
Minimal is very challenging and it will require a lot of brains to solve all the content. But don't worry, if you get stuck you can always go to other levels and come back later.

Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.
Flipping tiles, which toggles alternating pieces, to suit colors designated for the stage design within exact moves. Was interesting and easy in the early 30s, until the yellow pieces appear, which gives a headache when puzzles requires clicking same spot. Dreadful experience in the 50s and 60s, being too hard and brainstorming. ( wouldn't have solved some without the help of Guide hints ) When the green pieces appear, at 70s, game becomes pleasant again. Got the game at dirt cheap discount, so was decent. Buy only if 90% discounted. Neutral recommendation.6 found this helpful

Minimal is a pure logic-focused puzzle game developed and published by Gammosaur that fully commits to the idea that simplicity, when handled with care, can produce depth and challenge on its own. From the moment it begins, the game strips away anything that could distract from the act of problem-solving itself. There is no narrative framing, no characters, and no thematic embellishment guiding the experience. Instead, Minimal presents the player with a clean grid of tiles and a clear objective, trusting that the inherent satisfaction of logical discovery is more than enough to sustain engagement. This design philosophy makes the game feel almost meditative, placing full responsibility on the player’s reasoning and patience rather than external motivation. The core mechanic is immediately understandable yet deceptively rich. Players interact with tiles on a grid, and each interaction causes predictable but far-reaching changes across adjacent tiles. The goal in every level is to transform the board into a target configuration using these interactions. Early puzzles function as gentle tutorials, teaching how actions propagate across the grid and how even a single move can have mult…

I am 32 years old. My ex-wife and I have a daughter together, and we adopted our son together. Both are now 4 years old. When we were going through our separation, I felt lost and unhappy. I was self-destructive. One day, I was so angry with everything spiraling out of control that I punched a concrete wall in a moment of overwhelming emotion. This resulted in breaking my fifth metacarpal in my right hand—the hand I worked with, played games with, and used to carry my children to bed—the hand I desperately needed to ensure I could continue providing. Upon learning the severity of the self-inflicted damage, I became almost suicidal. Keep in mind that just a few months before this, I was the happiest man, with no history of depression or anxiety. I had never experienced anger outbursts, nor was I the type to break down and cry, but I was in a tough situation that truly prevented me from seeing the light on the other side. With nothing better to do, I looked for a game I could play WITH ONE HAND while recovering. Somehow, I stumbled upon this game and read some of the comments. I decided it was worth a try... I must admit I didn't beat the game, nor did I play as much as some of y…
Enjoyable game. Interesting puzzles with some sound and colours. Sometimes quite difficult, but the level selection is broad enough so that you often don't really get stuck. The levels in the late 50s are indeed hard, and I think that the level selection screen could use a better srolling mechanism.
