How it feels

A calm, logic-driven experience of solving grid puzzles at your own pace with gradually increasing difficulty.

What players say

Players praise the four logic puzzle types, especially the Knight, Pirate, and Spy modes that add positional logic, but are split on the use of AI-generated art and sound, with some calling it dishonest for a studio named Purist Games. The lack of error feedback frustrates some, while others appreciate the procedural generation and the low price.
