holedown

Are there other games with the same mechanic? Yes. Still, this one is delightfully crafted, has a great soundtrack, fun and poppy UX, and a great "one more run" dopamine feed. It's priced right, so cure your quarantine boredom with some holedown. Solid recommendation, eggdad.

Just one more round. Thank you NL

I'd eagerly bought this game before the end of a 30min playthrough video, and I don't regret it at all. "if you like what you see, add it to your wishlist!" - NorthernLion Oh I can do one better than that bud.

Really good, the visuals mesh so well with the great audio, also really hard to put down! (thx northernlion for featuring, i would've so overlooked this gem in the tide of... games on steam^^)

Injects pure serotonin into your veins straight through your eyes and ears. Very worth. Thanks egg dad.

I recommend it, BUT from the levels to the upgrades and the types of balls (only one) and blocks, everything feels bland. Still it's a fun game. Wait for a sale. Oh! and Clippy's alien cousin is constantly there.

The concept and core gameplay of this game is fantastic and the presentation is super smooth. That said, the lack of content is really fatal for any hope that I could recommend this. You get to the final level really quickly. Another review said 5 hours but I'm pretty sure it took me much less than that. After that all you have to do is to try and get a high score on a very boring endless mode. I stuck with it for a long time but that was mostly because of how easy it was to pick up and the fact that I had very little else to play at the time. It's kind of felt like drawing blood from a stone ever since I beat the final level. For this price point there's loads of other puzzle games you can get that have far more content in them. Albeit none of them scratch the same itch this game does, which is why I'm honestly more disappointed than I ordinarily would be. If they released a substantial expansion to this game to add extra content it might be worth it, but as it stands you'll get bored...

10 bucks for 5 hours? I don't like that value proposition too much.

dopamine machine go brrrrrrrrrrr

Imagine is a mobile game was fun to play and not filled with ads, that's Holedown. Charming and straight to the point, you'll be chucking buddies at blocks moments after booting it up for the first time. Due to the simplicity of the game it's very easy to catch on and feel like you're quickly improving. I had no issues getting through the first 3 levels, though just a heads up you may need to grind a little to break through the difficulty increase at the 4th level. Going back to previous levels to grind gems is still a pleasure as each run through it becomes easier and easier till you're ready to take on the next challenge and progress.
