a good game for anyone looking for a puzzle challenge - some very difficult levels!

Hex 2 is the follow-up to the pretty good Hex, a navigation puzzle game. You’ll need to find your way around a hexagonal board, touching each tile to make it disappear - you complete the level when all tiles are deleted. As you solve the levels, more and more types of hexagons will turn up to make your life harder (or, in rare cases, easier) - you know the drill, this is how a good puzzle game should go.
Also, the game is how a good 2nd installment should go. Studio Goya was taking a look at all aspects of the original Hex, and tried to make improvements wherever feasible - while the visuals are pretty much the same, the music is much better suited to the contemplative nature of puzzle solving, there are much welcome gameplay improvements, and most importantly, the puzzles are harder, with more types of hexagons. Some of them are quite crazy, like the boats - and even those come in two variants :)

Hanoi Puzzles: Solid Match
Titles based on some old physical game are almost always a good choice, as long as the developer does not stumble along the way! Fortunately, Hanoi Puzzles: Solid Match is no exception. The implementation of this version is impeccable, and the fun from the original game is undoubtedly present here.

Solving all puzzle levels is easy. But finishing them within the sugested number of moves is not so easy.
Solving 5 levels in less moves then sugested, is a real challenge.
Recommended game for puzzle lovers and achievements hunters.

Hanoi Puzzles: Flip Match
A simple change in the game mechanic gives the puzzles a new way to solve. I am just as happy with this game as the previous version.
Some puzzles are straight forward early on to learn some basic concepts of moving and solving. Then later the solutions are not as obvious and you get to plan out your moves. But if you dont want to solve for the minimum moves, you can just move as much as you want. Being able to move to the next level with the “correct” solution, is huge for me.
The music is still calm and fits the style. Some of the music is a little bit… stronger or more aggressive compared to the previous game, but still calm and in the background.

Before We Leave
I have personally been enjoying this game very much! I appreciate that I don’t need to worry about war or combat, nor must I consider the monetary value of my peoples (ie. slavery). It still can be challenging, and I was pleasantly surprised by the little challenges it throws your way (ex: the gremlins!). The aesthetic is very pleasing, and it isn’t very demanding graphically. I would definitely recommend this! I’ve written out some of my experiences and some tips! ♥
- The Tutorial -
Doing the tutorial is a good idea and I do recommend it, but the tutorial will take you through pretty much the whole game, or at least deep into the mid-game – this could literally be hours and hours lol. But I would suggest stopping after you have started to explore your second planet., then proceed to your own games.

Before we leave is one the best games I have played in a long time for getting right into the game and understanding what to do. It’s not because it’s easy or simple. It’s because of the amazing job they did with the tutorial system and explaining the basics of the game.

Hex
The concept, tile variety, presentation, and content for the price are all fine.
However, as the levels increase in size and complexity, it becomes simultaneously more important and more difficult to keep track of what’s going to happen many moves into the future. Level design does not feel elegant or logical, but random for the sake of difficulty. My approach to puzzles that could not be solved one section at a time eventually degenerated into guessing and hoping that the puzzle would be solvable by the time there were few enough tiles for the puzzle to be predictable.

Hex is a puzzle game where the goal is to clear the hexagonal tiles in each stage by jumping on them until none remain. It starts off easy, with just normal tiles that can be jumped on from either one or two spaces away, but gradually more tiles are introduced, like tiles that can only be jumped to from a certain distance, tiles that turn on and off, and tiles that have to be jumped over before they can be jumped on.
The difficulty curve in this game is expertly tuned: Each “world” of the game introduces one or two new tile types with simple levels to get you used to them before ramping up the challenge in the later levels with everything you’ve learned beforehand. These later levels can take quite a bit of time, and the bonus levels can be exceptionally devious.

The Machine’s Garden
Good puzzler with half a dozen tricky levels that will probably test your patience. There is a
some kind of weird and creepy story also. If you like puzzles you will like this game, no timers and no limited moves.

I’m 16 puzzles in so far and honestly I just want to say how much I LOVE this game. It’s amazing. It feels so satisfying to play, every click and drag of the mouse feels weighty, with effects and sounds that match perfectly, reverting puzzles is a joy to watch, and every time I get stuck on a puzzle I have a really satisfying little moment when I work it out. The ambient sound is so nice to listen to and doesn’t distract at all, it sets the mood perfectly. I’m also completely in love with the style and graphics.

King’s Bounty: Crossworlds
I recommend this game because I enjoy playing it. If you liked King’s Bounty: The Legend (KBTL) then you will probably like this game. Although, I am having a little difficulty adjusting to some of the changes. There are some changes that I really like, some that I don’t like that much, and some that I am starting to appreciate as the game progresses.
There are a lot of new units to pick from and that can be hard to because you have a lot of choices, but it is nice that you start with 2 reserve slots automatically. Some tweaks have been made to some of the units and I still haven’t experimented with the Adrenaline system that the orc units now use.

I regret playing Armored Princess first before realizing Crossworlds is the same game with tons of extra features.
But other than that this is one of the better King’s Bounty games currently out there. Nice balance in difficulty, good pace in progression, and a rather medium length game.
A few complaints:
Some of the islands you explore are really small and so a full exploration is pretty short. It felt like there could’ve been more, such as a few more enemies to fight.
Goblin shamans can use one of their abilities on an opposing unit despite it saying it can only be used on allies. The ability makes it so that between 2 units you selected, the slave unit takes half of the damage the master would’ve taken(not vice versa, it’s a 1 way thing). Because it’s most likely you won’t be using goblin shaman units in this first place, enemies will take advantage of this and cause you to lose massive amounts of units either way because 1) if you don’t attack the master you take a ton of damage from the master itself. 2) if you damage the master unit, you will take a ton of damage to the slave unit.

BasCatball Mars: Basketball & Cat
the game is really good, the graphics and animations feel like an arcade game, as it really is. it doesn’t get too overwhelming easily, the gameplay is simple, but the characters have unique skills, which makes the game more interesting, and also more cool. in the game there is the possibility to change the music which helps not to get too heavy, in short the game is incredible, even more so for an indie studio, with lots of fun and very reasoning stages, good for training the brain and having fun whenever you want, it’s cheap, good and light, a good choice for any audience, I recommend leaving the option to return only 1 shift, so as not to have to return the entire phase, and to think about adapting to android, it would be very played, already that most casual gamers are on mobile devices. but in general the game is excellent, congratulations to those involved and I hope many other games in the future.

Short but enjoyable puzzle.
The tactic that worked for me is try to draw the convex polygon by connecting
elements starting with those that are most distant from the center (to avoid short circuit).
The game rules show that you can connect elements with same charge together
but you cant do that in game:
