Stozle - Solve the Mystery

Disclaimer: A copy of this game was provided by the developer. Stozle - Solve the Mystery is a story game where you solve sudoku puzzles. There are three short stories to choose from that have a self reflecting nature. Each story has ten pages and to get all of them you have to solve a 2x2, three 4x4 and five 9x9 sudokus. The game notices you that there are no autosaves and you have to manually save your progress. Solving the sudokus is done by clicking to pick up a number and placing it on the grid, on the 9x9 sudokus you can use the numbers above the letters as hotkeys, but not the numpad. While the stories are short, there are a few typing mistakes. WARNING: The initial problem has been fixed however you should take note of the warning that says this game has no auto save. If you want your progress saved, or to read the stories at a later time, you will need to make a manual save. For achievement hunters: Complete all 3 stories.

5/5 Stars This is your typical Sudoku type number puzzler. It's quite a small game and the music is nice. The puzzles slightly increase in difficulty, but not by much. The one bug I saw, was that the "Mistery" chapter, you cannot complete the 1st puzzle, as the number doesn't come up in the number box on the bottom of the screen. Once that gets fixed, I will up to 5 Stars. Edit: Can confirm bug was fixed.

I’d probably go with a mixed review if I could. There’s not a lot of content, but it doesn’t cost much. This game is a mixture of sudoku and short stories. Your reward for solving a puzzle is being able to read another page. There are better sudoku games out there, but I thought the stories were told well. I’ll go with a thumbs up because you can read a story straight through after you solve all the puzzles. You don’t have to solve them again. (You do have to save your progress manually in order to just read a story later on, but there is a clear warning that there is no autosave feature.)

I wanted to buy Doom Eternal but bought this gem instead. Wasn't disappointed. :)

Wow! I still have the chills from this game... The story is amazing, and the puzzles make it more exciting. And the music is really good too. I highly recommend it!
