CIPHER-8 is a brain-twisting minimalist arcade puzzler where you push numbers into a grid and manipulate them with randomly drawn special abilities! Play blitz mode for frantic combo streaks, or analyze every move in puzzle mode. Both scale infinitely in their difficulty. How far can you go?
Revenue comes from in-game items and microtransactions, which our price-based model doesn't estimate. The player count below is how many people own it, not what they spent.

Any dev who publishes pico-8 games is a hero - let alone for free! If you've ever had even a passing interest in design, this project is a great introduction to what's possible with a big dose of creativity from the engine. How does it hold up as a game though, all that gushing about indie crap aside? Well, it's great. Too good for a free game, and I'm not just saying that! This is the most innovative and unique puzzler I've seen in years, and while it is challenging to me as person historically bad at all puzzlers, the more laid-back Puzzle mode (second in the menu, I brought this up with the developer :P) is an absolute joy that really makes you feel clever for solving even a single line. If pressure from a timer isn't your thing, like it isn't mine, don't be scared off! If it is your thing, you'll feel like a bomb disposal technician pulling off the coolest math of your life! Let me give you a dollar or five next time :)

This one is a brain-burner but quite addictive at the same time (if you're in for a challenge). Your first few tries will feel like you're simultaneously creating and trying to untie a dozen knots in your brain. The more you play though, the more you will dip into this flow-like state where you start laying down moves and combos before you consciously realize you saw them. Reminds me a bit of Super Hexagon in that aspect, although much more thinky and less based on dexterity. Blitz and puzzle mode are very different types of experiences but trying to push your scores higher and higher is a lot of fun in both! The stomping music nicely supports the flow and, while quite minimalist, the game has cute graphics too. (I like how the blocks go "wheeee" when they fall! :D)
My gambling addict friend said if I post a review CIPHER-8 and it gets 350 likes and 150 Awards that he will buy me a case of beer and some vodka. So I'm just gonna leave this here.
Random Sudoku - really nice challenge. Can't recommend it more for the high price of zero. The lazy boy mode suits me well, no stress and a nice boost every time you hit a column. I'm not great at puzzle games but this ones pure math with some random challenge thrown in. Really shows off the Pico8 engine well. Great presentation, simple but very well animated graphics and a great example of the platforms in built music. Really suits the game and bops you along with it. Qudos to the dev Ludokultur for putting this one out for free. Highly recommended!
Add 3 numbers to equal the top number set in a retro theme. I enjoyed the 20 minutes of playing this immensely.
CIPHER-8 really makes you have to think about your moves in this tile-sliding puzzle game. I find sometimes there are scenarios where the game can get difficult, and that's good! When I tried for the first time after someone suggested I play this game, they were right about how much I would enjoy the puzzle aspect of the game. This game makes you attempt to predict your moves accordingly to make sure that you can solve each puzzle on your own. This is a one-of-a-kind game that gets you thinking from both inside and outside the box at the same time. Love the game. I'll be playing this for quite a while. [b]10/10[/b]
Honestly after playing for 10 minutes, I wanted to run an never return... But twist incoming... !!! ... after playing more, you guessed it, things started taking a huge turn and now I see a grid of numbers in my sleep, feeling like a big-brain, cracking the code & saving the world... well yes... rather steeling the goods but you get the gist... 10/10 would recommend!
CIPHER-8, sayıları bir ızgaraya ittiğiniz ve bunları rastgele çizilmiş özel yeteneklerle değiştirdiğiniz, beyninizi çalıştıran minimalist bir arcade bilmecesidir! Çılgınca kombo serileri için yıldırım modunu oynayın veya bulmaca modunda her hareketi analiz edin. Her ikisinin de zorluk dereceleri sonsuzdur. Ne kadar uzağa gidebilirsin?
