This is a puzzle game on a grid based map. The player can try unlimited times to solve a puzzle and there is only 1 solution for each puzzle. There are over 200 levels to solve and a Steam demo if players want to try the game. - There are 2 hints available on each level if you need help. After reading the second tip, there should be enough information to figure out the puzzle. If you cannot figure out a puzzle, you can skip after a few failed attempts. - Each character has 1 movement and action per turn. However, there is a unit introduced later that gives an additional action. [h1] Pros: [/h1] - Each new character adds new abilities to the level. As you reach harder levels, the player needs to use all the abilities to solve the puzzle. - Undo and reset buttons allow you to quickly retry a level. - There is a level editor to create and test your own puzzles. It is unlocked after completing the grassland area. - Most of the puzzles can be completed in 5-10 minutes, so this game can be conveniently played during a lunch break. [h2]Cons: [/h2] - None that I can think of. [h3]Suggestions: [/h3] - Add solutions for each puzzle on Youtube. Another way is to give the player tokens. After completing 5 puzzles, you get a token for a puzzle solution. - Allow player to take video replay or screenshots of a puzzle attempt. This will make it easier for the player to find their error without redoing the puzzle from the beginning. [b]Conclusion: A satisfying puzzle game that tests your puzzle skills. After solving a puzzle, the player gets this a-ha moment. The puzzles range from easy to hard difficulty and there is a skip option if you are stuck. I even messaged the developer on Discord for help and they provided a video with the solution. Highly recommended for players that enjoy puzzle games.

Great puzzle game that needs more attention from players

This game is what I've always wanted from indie games - wonderful and a well executed idea. The puzzles are smart, the UX is fantastic (really, everything works and behaves just how I want it to) and in general it's an amazingly polished experience. There is just enough "lore" to keep me hooked but the developer knows what the game strengths are and doesn't try to input epic story of huge heroes or anything like that. Just a chill, polished and smart indie game. Highly recommended.

Fun puzzles meet Final Fantasy Tactics with an excellent soundtrack. Thinking through the maneuvers with the gradual skill building strikes a proper balance of difficult and also the "Aha!" moment when it all just clicks. The undo feature is very useful so you don't "concede" to your enemies of old without really wanting to. Would recommend for the length of sessions and the vibes of the map tunes.
