Sands of Hope

Good concept, meh execution and just, very little content overall I got this game on sale so I don't have any regrets but I will say that this game is cute and has a great concept gameplay wise. I would recommend purely due to this being an indie game with a cute robot however some criticism for the devs: The controls are a little finicky, the camera being locked into a pseudo-isometric view isn't utilized at all, it would be better to just give the player full control to prevent frustration, rather than purely a single button to rotate it by a fixed angle. The cube merging mechanic is kind of odd to get working in a way you want it to, if there were a better way to individually "pick a side" to merge to, that would've made a lot of puzzles much smoother. I can see a version/sequel of this game with a LOT of potential, fez style puzzles that play with the artstyle and require lots of planning and thinking in order to complete, its a shame this game is so small! I beat the whole thing in under 2 hours
