Stopped at level 21, because I shouldn't have had to go online to discover that squares & circles acted differently. Also not a fan of no hint option.
I don't recommend this game.
An artistic puzzle game inspired by 20th century Art Deco & stained glass artisans. Combine glass pieces to unveil themes from around the world!

I was able to knock this out in barely one evening (5 hrs); usually puzzle games take me at least 2 evenings.
I will say that at times, placing the pieces was a bit frustrating, but the end-beauty was often worth it.
I'm glad I'm a club member, and didn't have to pay retail.
I don't recommend this game.
Epistory immerses you in an atmospheric action/adventure game where you play a girl riding a giant fox who fights an insectile corruption from an origami world.

Lovely story, with beautiful art. As a professional typist, I found the need to type actual words quickly to be a refreshing challenge.
My only complaint would be the back-and-forth, and that newly-opened zones were not easily seen on the map. Likewise, I would have liked to be able to drag the map around, to see what might have become opened.
Overall, I really enjoyed this game, and would love to see more like this!
I recommend this game!

I love these kinds of games, but have to admit that I'm not impressed anymore with those that don't have some kind of picture, such as the Fantasy Mosaics series gives.
It is both helpful, and frankly, pretty, to have a "goal" other than not messing up.
I recommend this game!

Enjoyable but needs a voice-skip option

I read *very* fast. I dislike that there is no way to skip the voice-overs. The voice work was good - I liked the depiction of Jamila, a modern Muslim woman.
Overall, enjoyable. Good story, just challenging enough. But too long, because there was no way to move the character interactions aka voice-overs, any faster.
I recommend this game!
