Archipel Logic Infinite

The app seems to do everything necessary to solve this kind of puzzles = Good!! It is Early Access and we have the time to explore if additional features are necessary or 'nice-to-have'. I am in for it. :) Example: Do we need some 'Quality of Life' features? (many puzzle games do, for 'harder' puzzles - i.e. being able to create suitable 'notes') I do [b] NOT [/b] see it, yet, and i am of the fraction "If it is not [i] really [/i] necessary - come on, it is ok as it is." :) That's what EA is for - let's explore. [b] [[EDIT: Aug, 19, 2024 Patch gives us the essential (sic!) pause/resume feature and therefore my initial review has lost its foundation and is updated.]] [/b] [strike] No level progression save = [b] useless app [/b] (at the moment) for simply this reason! Levels get bigger and if i can not interrupt playing w/o loosing its progress - No! [i] Absolutely necessary [/i] to add this simple feature a.s.a.p. [/strike]

Cute little implementation of Nurikabe. It's fun, but if you want, there's plenty of free online options to play this type of puzzle. I did enjoy my time in this version nontheless.

I like the puzzles. But I don't really like the 'mistakes' mechanic, where the game rejects incorrect inputs. I think it would be more interesting if it allows wrong inputs, so that you end up stuck in situations where you didn't realize you made a mistake and have to backtrack. Essentially, the mistakes system gives you an unwanted hint by rejecting your input. This is fine for a tutorial, but I was kinda shocked that this is part of the game. An added defect is that this punishes missclicks as well. So in order to get around this I set a rule for myself that I restart the entire puzzle if I make 1 mistake. That basically solves the issue for me, since I can't remember what it was after having to resolve the entire puzzle again. Otherwise, I think that players will just click around without learning anything. Though again, that's just my experience/opinion. Perhaps the game felt too punishing without this, I don't know. The music sounds nauseatingly AI generated, and is awful.

No comfort features like drawing in the game to find contradictions, which becomes very annoying in later levels. Glitchy in some infinite puzzles. And the credits give me a unwell feeling supporting such AI generated asset mishmash.

A masterpiece

Great logic game, even for Early Access it already feels very polished. I also played some levels on the Steam Deck with no issues at all.

Addicting. Well crafted puzzler.

One of my favourite puzzle games. The difficulty curve worked well for me and the inclusion of both user created and seed generated content makes for a lot of variety.

fun to play during exam period now i have no scholarship

5/5 fun and relaxing game
