Quaddro 2

Good game, great to pass the time. Keep uploading the next games to Linux.

I didn't find the gameplay very enjoyable and the puzzles weren't challenging. The central mechanic is just not very engaging. Additionally, there are several broken achievements (mostly of the simple "complete X levels" type) that the developer, despite acknowledging them, has neither fixed nor removed. There are still two spaces in the level hub for level packs labeled "coming soon," but they never will. It seems that the developer has moved on to his next game and no longer responds in the forum.

[u]In short:[/u] This is a very polished logistic puzzle game. The gameplay is quite solid and rather unique, with only a few questionable design decisions here and there. The price seems about fair for the 1 hour and 45 minutes of unique content you get with the base game. I was also quite impressed by how well and quick the developers reacted to community feedback, which is rare but very welcome (this used to be a negative review, before a substantial patch came out and fixed my main complaint). [u]In long:[/u] The game is played with mouse-only and the fundamental [b][u]mechanic[/u][/b] consists of re-arranging circles on a grid into square patterns to clear them. Click a circle and it follows your mouse, at which point you can add other circles to form a chain following your cursor much like in the game of Snake. As soon as you let go, the game resolves any squares and you can start to pick up other circles. Each of the 80 vanilla levels consists of various obstacles and has a pre-determined amount of circles you need to clear with 2x2 or 3x3 arrangements. This gives you two goals: Transport enough circles to one place and do not resolve any squares prematurely (e.g. a 2x2 squ…

Playing this on an iMac Retina, 8GB-3.3 GHz-Core i5, with an AMD Radeon R9 M395 video card & running El Capitan 10.11.6. Just wanted to put out this review to address the minimum requirements that list Sierra as being necessary to play the game. I thought that sounded a little strange for a simple graphics puzzle game so I e-mailed the dev, and he replied back that they had Sierra down as the minimum requirement simply because that was the only machine they had tested it out on, but he thought that I should have no problem under an older OS. I bought it, installed it, played it. Everything ran just fine, so if you are running your Mac under something older than Sierra you will probably be good to go. Works great under El Capitan. Oh, and it is fun, too!

Developed and published by Mental Lab Studio, Quaddro 2 is a logic-based puzzle game that embraces simplicity while delivering surprisingly deep gameplay. Rather than relying on an elaborate story or eye-catching visual effects, the game concentrates on challenging the player's reasoning skills through carefully designed puzzles. Its minimalist style immediately communicates that every element serves a purpose, allowing players to focus entirely on solving increasingly complex spatial challenges. This design philosophy makes it appealing to puzzle enthusiasts who appreciate thoughtful mechanics over spectacle. The core gameplay revolves around manipulating chains of colored dots across a grid to create complete squares made up of either four or nine dots of the same color. While the objective sounds straightforward, the puzzles quickly become more intricate as players must account for movement restrictions, positioning, and the order in which shapes are assembled. The game encourages experimentation, rewarding careful planning instead of random trial and error. Since multiple colors are present within many stages, players constantly need to think several moves ahead to avoid block…
