This is a pretty good game for the price. The gameplay is unique and stays interesting throughout the run of the game, and although not every puzzle is a hit, there are quite a few really good ones that make the game worth getting. The biggest critique I have is that I wish there was an undo system so I didn’t have to restart the whole level because I accidentally pressed right one too many times, but the levels are generally short enough that restarting isn’t too big of an issue and I was still able to 100% the game pretty quickly.

DOUBLE INVASION!!

DOUBLE INVASION!!

I wasn’t sure what to expect when launching the game. It turns out it’s a pretty good puzzle game in the vein of adventures of Lolo on the NES.

The puzzles are well designed and will test your sagacity and ‘thinking-out-of-the-box’ capacity.

There are boss levels too which are working well.

The crude graphics work hand in hand with the stupid story to give the game a zanny feeling which isn’t bad at all.

Only problem is the music that is awful and some of the sound effects are very grating too. You’ll want to put the game on mute.

Basically this is reimagining of the Adventure of Lolo games with a few tweaks to make the puzzles more understandable while also layering on some new concepts. If you haven’t played those games, the learning curve here is a little steep, but there’s also a lot of helpful hints build into the game a fun character dialog. If you love the Lolo games this is a nostalgia trip. The game is weird, but pretty on the level compared to modern Sokobons like Steven’s Sausage Roll. I wish it had a rewind system, even if it was only active when no other enemies were in motion.

A cute and challenging little game! There were a few bugs/glitches, and I broke the game right before the last section by wandering through a wall and off the course, but was fun enough to try to blaze through the levels again

It’s pretty good, the puzzles can be quite challenging, like where I wish there was a hint option…

藏梦:序曲

藏梦:序曲

A lovely free game set in Ancient China with sokoban puzzles and a bit of nifty platforming. A delightful environment with zen settings as you search for relics whose history are very interesting. The richness of the Chinese culture and history are very prevalent in this short prologue and are enchanting to see.

As you travel up the Maiji mountain as Princess Wencheng, you encounter a fierce wind which causes difficulty in platforming and it is challenging to reach some relics. This game requires you to use strategy, skill and lots of patience to activate the temple!

很不错。尤其第二关环环相扣,设计精妙。音乐和画面都很唯美,很有东方色彩和韵味。

美中不足的是物品的信息不够完善,有的英文字母打错了,有的欠缺信息,其中一件甚至有 fatal bug。

不过这游戏还是非常出色的。继续加油!

Bonfire Peaks

Bonfire Peaks

Received the key from Corey Martin, full disclosure, much obliged.

Bonfire Peaks is a great puzzle game in almost every aspect. There are over 200 puzzles in the game and you can tackle them in any order, so if you want, you can reach the end by solving only the puzzles that will give you enough boxes to reach the end. I finished all the levels and I can say that it is amazing that 85 % of puzzles didn’t feel like I was doing the same thing over and over, most of the puzzles have their own unique solution and the way you get to the solution so most of them feel unique in a way. I like how the overworld is structured, you have the main path with more or less easier puzzles but the real challenge for the puzzle veterans would be the optional levels that are off the beaten path. This is not an easy game and 4 or 5 times I was stuck on a puzzle for many hrs, now look I don’t give up on a puzzle easily but some of them are really hard.

Fabulous, hard, 3D and fair - Smullyan-like masterpiece


When asked why he doesn’t believe in astrology, the logician Raymond Smullyan responds that he’s a Gemini and Geminis never believe in astrology


This is the kind of mental conundrum that Corey Martin (Pipe-Push Paradise) , aided and abetted by Alan Hazelden (A Monster’s Expedition) will lead you down.

Some of the harder puzzles have the flavor of a pure logic riddle: what must be true for me to be able to place the box in this place? Well, if all other options are exhausted, that means I have to drop this box into the water. Really? throw away my precious boxes?

MacGuffin’s Curse

MacGuffin’s Curse

MacGuffin’s Curse is a third person 2D puzzler where you are cursed with an amulet that can turn you into a werewolf. You main character and its alter werewolf self have specific actions that it can take. As a a human, you can interact with doors, switches, swim, and more. As a werewolf you can destroy debris, push and pull objects. Your goal is to bring a battery to its home in each level in order to open up the other doors that you did not come in through.

The puzzles are fairly simple to mediocre for the majority of the time. If you try to get all of the achievements, meaning visiting every nook and cranny of each level you will find some levels that definitely test your brain to the fullest. In fact, I would even go so far as saying that some of the later puzzles are very tedious. The corridors, doors, and other objects restrict your movement meaning you need to know how to move around things or open doors, or press buttons in the right order in order to complete a level.

Sometimes I am really surprised by an indie game. This is definitely one of them:

I hadn’t heard of the game before and was just a bit curious what it was. I expected to be bored very soon - but couldn’t stop playing until, four days later, I had not only completed the game, but also collected every achievement.

MacGuffin’s Curse is puzzle game made by some witty and talented Australians. You navigate MacGuffin, an anti-hero-turned-werewolf, through lots of boxes, occasionally pushing them around to open exits and such. The story is well-crafted and offers a lot of funny as well as some touching moments. The environments are fantastic, too, and some lunatic even took the time to write a seperate description for every chair, lantern, picture or other item you come across. Needless to say, I had to read every single one so I wouldn’t miss anything. The puzzles hardly ever become boring or frustrating. Another thing I really liked was the developer commentary. It is always interesting to get a little glimpse into the process that went into making a game.
