I love both the game itself and the visuals, which are in the neighborhood of Monument Valley’s minimalism without feeling like a wannabe. It grows progressively more puzzling as unexpected twists in gameplay mechanics limit or altogether cancel out earlier, easier ways to kill the opponents. This game makes me wrack my brain and look for patterns and think several moves ahead. Still not all the way through it. And when (if) I get to the end, a do-over awaits because the game judges and awards you if you can complete a given level in fewer moves and also tells you the fewest number of possible moves for each level.



Oh and there’s a brain-bogglingly cool AR mode, in which you walk around the game instead of turning the game on the screen when your guy has been rotated to the opposite side. Just bonkers. I love it. I’d give it 6 stars if I could.



Also, there is a sequel called Euclidian Skies. Just bought it today. I hope it measures up to the very high standard the developers have set for themselves here. Judging by the preponderance of 5 star reviews, I suspect it does.
