Regrowth
Take some time off and relax
Regrowth is a game that I could enjoy even when i had little time to myself. The various mechanics - which on their own look pretty simple and self explanatory- and layouts of the puzzles make for an intriguing and often challenging experience. Quite often changing mindsets and/or gradual optimisation were the keys to solving the levels, and it gives the player a good amount of satisfaction each time it all finally comes together.
I think these kind of puzzle games are a nice way to keep ones mind thinking on simpler things for a while, in a cute, relaxing atmosphere, so I’d definitely it recommend for anyone.

The game is a realy refreshing experience, especially nowadays when everything is about reflection time, high speed hand-eye coordination. I find it amazingly important for these hidden gems to exist, so a troubled mind can find some peace. Regrowth has a charming, fantasy-like look, which fits in greatly with the immersive story with which anybody could relate. The puzzles are just challenging enough to create some intellecutal relaxation after a hard day’s mental work. However, besides all those points I have mentioned, the most important aspect of the game is…you can plant some green dude! :D

Plumber: the Pipe Rush
I really like this game. It’s a simple concept, but challenging and different every time. And it’s fun to see how complicated you can make the pipeline. The only issue is that I wish that when it does fail, it was easier to see the board to see what went wrong. A bunch of stuff is displayed over the board after a failure which makes it difficult to see the problem.

Note: As of reviewing, I have played the first ten levels.
This is a fun game which at its most basic is about using pipes to transport toxic waste from point A to point B without a leak. However, the gameplay contains a lot more nuance and presents additional challenges as you progess through the levels. The pipes come in multiple shapes and some of them add extra directions for the waste to travel while others create a “dead end”, allowing you to make the waste travel a certain direction. You will not always have the pieces you want, so there is some tetris-esque strategy involved in deciding when to trash one of your current pieces to try for a better replacement or to improvise with what you currently have. Additionally, some levels already begin with pipe pieces present, so you have the option of placing your pieces strategically to connect with these or to work around them as if they were an obstacle.

Saving Animals
Would have been nice to know BEFORE I purchased this game that after you fail levels a certain number of times you have to spend money to continue playing. Good thing I didn’t pay much for it or I’d be seriously upset.

Cobots
This is a cool little game with a great artstyle! The puzzles get progressively more difficult (a good thing), and if you get stuck you can probably think of solutions from previous levels to get hints to progress further.
10/10, would fall into the void again.

Interesting and cute puzzle game by setting the actions of robots.
You must consider both the order and interaction between them,
and can try different ways to collect all the chips (achievement).
If you like little game / logic action game, Cobots is a good choice.
(It takes about 4.5~5 hrs to complete all the achievements)

Retro 1960’s comic style
“Is this thing on? Testing, testing.”
“My sensors really need a clean!”
“Oh wait, there you are.”
“Welcome test subject to our human radiation colour …or is that color? Hmm I’m not sure, my programming has more than a hint of the transatlantic in it…Where was I… Oh yes.,, Welcome test subject to our human radiation colour perception challenge. My name is Finley 808 and I’m your AI companion for your short foreseeable future.”
Pit your wits against the maniacal artificial intelligence Finley in this reimagining of the unknown and very secret 1960’s human perception tests carried out in top secret hidden bunker laboratories.
“Did you know there’s a Prize to be found deep in the Laboratory at the end of this test?”
As the test subject, the deeper you go into the facility, the harder the puzzles become to most.
“Thanks to a lucky find near Roswell, New Mexico we have built this facility to experiment on some new forms matter”
The objective of each test is simple. Drag and drop the available laser manipulation devices to split, redirect and absorb the laser death ray and eliminate the alien blob like waste product artefacts.
“The death ray… I mean focused radiation beam… is quite powerful. Should it touch the sides I will have no choice but to activate sterilisation protocols!”
It is possible for the light beam to touch the sides of the test laboratory. If you do, it will activate a countdown (limiting the time you have to pass the test). Should the countdown reach zero (all containment suppression fuses in the lab are blown), you will fail the test.
“Oh I do hope you aren’t one of the mediocre ones. You know your colours right? Oh I do hope so, whilst this alien waste product is messy, recycling substandard humans is really messy!”
The alien artefacts have a distinct hue. Black, Red, Green, Blue, Cyan, Magenta, Yellow and White. The white light of the laser will neutralise any of these. However you can split the white light (and combine of course) into these colours to remove corresponding Alien waste products.
“I’m always amazed just how many supposedly bright humans don’t understand how primary colours are mixed to make other colours. As a species you boast about the likes of Newton and Einstein, but really. The number of test subjects I see that didn’t know Red and Green makes Yellow, Red and Blue makes Magenta and, get this, Blue and Green makes Cyan. I mean please, over 80 billion neurons and not one helping… I will understand this species one day”.
A report card is produced for each test level completed. The grading is typical of the 1960’s where a “F” is an out and out fail through to an A (a top pass). Finley will award three star ticks for the best “A” class students! You are welcome to retake a level test again and again to improve your rating and score.
“It’s good to reward good effort don’t you think?”
You can increase your score (and report card attainment of course) by completing levels quickly, matching laser beam colour to Alien blob and minimising the number of device moves.
“Oh dear, that was a failure. Where will I get the next test subject from?”
You can easily (with permission granted) share your report with friends. Perhaps they will be better or worse than you when they face Finley’s Colour of Radiation challenge? Either way, it’s a game that will improve your cognitive and problem solving skills - Those secret 1960’s experiments have to have proved something right?
“We like humans, they will do whatever you ask of them, if you ask in the right way. Only last week I said to a test subject that managed to get to the Prize… I got into a fight with 1, 3, 5, 7 and 9. – The odds were against me. Soon after, 19 and 20 had a fight. Twenty one. ….They laughed!”
Still not sure if you want to give this game a go? Well, we can offer you hearsay and hyperbole regarding the experience of this game. Here are some of the totally fictitious characters that helped develop it…
“Man. This game is far out. The colours dude, they like blend you know.” (Comic reader guy, Long Beach, CA)
“My uncle did a lot of deep water filming in the 1960’s, but this game takes you deeper.” (Jake Coostoe, Monaco )
“One doesn’t simply play the game, one becomes the game, doesn’t one?” (MP, London)
“You know… When I was stuck in the game, I did manage to get by with a little help from my friends.” (Musician, Liverpool)
“Floot-rig-noota-garf-garf-yipa-enata-solinty-bim.” (A caretaker, Altair V)
We hope you enjoy this game!

Professor Watts Word Search: Pirates Life
Garbage
– Real player with 4.6 hrs in game
This is a copy and paste review: Pretty much every game in this series bundle or every game made by these developers comes with achievements already unlocked, you start the game run for a minute close it and all the achievements or the single achievement unlocks.
These games whether it’s the Trivia Games, the Word Search or the Picture search game, they are all reskins of each other, the concept behind these are all plain and boring, no creativity went into any of these games, you buy these games purely for the +1 to your Game and Perfect Game count and nothing more. That is the only reason why i’m giving it a positive review, i knew before hand what these games were about and that’s why i decided to buy them.

Fishermen’s Haven
Life on a remote island is not as easy as it seems. In Fishermen’s Haven, you have to take care of your people - make sure they have enough to eat, grow and harvest crops, fish using various techniques, or forage for food in the jungle. Remember that the tropical climate is unpredictable - be ready to face nature and tame the elements.
Manage resources, as you will need them to expand your village. Building new houses, tools or boats requires many materials that are scarce on the secluded isle. Be smart and take advantage of trade with foreign merchants who visit your village and sell products that can be crucial for the survival of your people.

Panda City
Late game there is a lot of lag but over all a very enjoyable experience.
– Real player with 2.7 hrs in game
I played for a few hours and it seemed like a fantastic game with a lot of potential. A simple and addictive game. Of course, I see that there are several errors, such as that no more pandas arrive to my city and the game remains constant. Another example is when I load my game, there are buildings that I eliminated and they appear on top of others that I had already placed. Despite this, I loved the game and would like to see more updates to fix the bugs and also add more content. Sereusly, I WANT MORE UPDATES, PLEASE!!!
