Pleasant looking, intriguing Escheresque ball-rolling puzzle game with decent variety in level goals. Other than choosing when to start your ball rolling, you do not control it, but rather you rearrange the level around it. Has a casual mode where you can complete the puzzles without any requirements which allows you to solve the puzzles more or less solely using spatial reasoning, and a challenge mode where you get medals based on skill challenges i.e., the number of moves, and it's not always about completing the level "under par", sometimes the objective is to get in extra moves while your ball is in motion, occasionally requiring more precise timing and dexterity. Meaningless has a decent number of gimmicks to keep you guessing. It's a good pick-me-up game to nibble at in quick sessions, or you could probably consume it at once in a couple of hours. If you have a collection of cheap but innovative casual puzzle games, this is a fun addition.

About This Game
Take a breath. Think. Manipulate the blocks. Build your perfect own loop. Enjoy your victory, it's satisfying to look at. "Meaningless" (originally "An Oddly Satisfying Game") is a hypnotizing puzzle game for PC imagined during the Ludum Dare 49.
Inspired by Monument Valley art, it’s a minimalist 3D isometric game.
To make it simple: one level, one puzzle, one frame.
A level is divided into two parts.
The first one: move the blocks to let the ball reach the finishing line. When the ball is rolling, all interactions with blocks are recorded.
The second one: if the ball reaches the finishing line, the entire recorded loop is replayed endlessly. Enjoy what you made and play with the recorded loop like a VHS.
The experience is inspired by the satisfying videos on YouTube or TikTok.
It’s the pleasure to watch a smooth and repetitive process without any flaws.
It seems easy, it’s hypnotizing and satisfying.
