Multimirror

Seems a bit off, starts really easy but gets confusing. I am recommending it but with a caveat, this is not a puzzle game for everyone, can get boring fast.

This game fails on a puzzle design level. Two basic quality standards I expect out of a puzzle game of this nature are that there are no superfluous parts of a puzzle (provided that misdirection is not the point) and that the requirement for a rank such as three stars is the optimal solution for at least a large percentage of the puzzles if not all of them. This game fails repeatedly on both. A sample puzzle could have 20 dots and claim that three stars is ten moves or less. I just completed it in three moves without even touching three quarters of the grid. This alone tells me that no quality control went into the puzzles themselves. To add insult to injury, twice within the first 15 levels I completed one below the three star rank only to be given two stars, at which point I replayed the puzzle with the same exact solution and was given three stars, so there's a serious bug. Further, the difficulty is schizophrenic even if I limit myself to the three-star guidelines; the game ...

Bought at 90% off this is about acceptable, but at full price its quite poor. The game involves leap frogging dots around a grid to get one particular dot to a finishing point. The puzzle idea itself is pretty solid and I could see some interesting things come from it, but this implementation has numerous problems. -The music is repetative and loops after a minute or two, so you get the same song doing the same things over and over to a maddening degree even within the short time it took to complete the game. -Early levels are bugged in that you can finish them in the move limit and not get your three stars. -There is a lack of mechanics, basically dots you can flip over, cant flip over, or that disappear after one flip. You get those mechanics near the start and thats all you get, it seems like this kind of game could have had a lot of other creative mechanics and its a wasted opportunity. -Perhaps one of the reasons for the lack of mechanics is that the level design appears to be ...

Not the best puzzle game...not the worst either. I would give this a mixed rating if I could.

Mixed feelings about this game. I really enjoy the reflection mechanic, and it is calming and pleasant to play. A problem emerges however as the levels advance and the board gets bigger. Each one of the 50 levels is static (not randomly generated), but the designs and difficulty ratings diverge farther and farther from the possibilities of the board. Difficulty ratings for the minimum steps to beat for a full 3-star rating on a puzzle increasingly seem to have nothing to do with the board -- almost as if the puzzle designer worked backwards from a suggested solution, but didn't understand or play-test their own puzzle. Most puzzles can be solved in 8-10 moves, no matter what -- despite move goals in the teens and 20s. In fact, many can be solved in far less, often in ways that feel like a design mistake. For example, puzzle 45 requires a solution in under 21 moves -- it can be solved in 4. Puzzle 48 requires a solution in under 29 moves -- it can also be solved in 4. For this reason,...

Interesting and clever concept for a puzzle game. However, the campaign level design seems random. The first couple of levels make sense and increase in difficulty. But then the levels get bigger and bigger with more mirroring possibilities yet where it says you need a maximum of 26 moves for 3-stars, you can finish the level easily with 5 steps? The next level then seems much harder requiring many retries. It all seem very randomly generated with little thought of level design. I only recommend you buy it when it's for sale.

6/10

The puzzles were interesting, but had way too wide a range of quality and difficulty in the puzzles.

The game was pretty short, contained quite some bugs (see list at the bottom) but the worst of it is the decreasing challenge. The levels actually get easier when you progress. I had the feeling the developer didn't do the math and had his levels not tested on shortest routs. There were levels that you needed to compleet in 24 steps to get three stars, I finished it in 5 steps. That is ridiculous! The higher the level set the more steps you have to compleet the level on three stars, therefore increasing the number of solutions for the level, making it easier. The concept is nice, but the game didn't work it out properly because of the lack of polishing. Bugs: - Navigation bugs (when selecting a level set for example, the game just doesn't do anything) - Freeze on level completion (the red circle gets zoomed in, and thats it, no stars, no menu, nothing) - Number of stars awarded is sometimes two, although it was definitly within the amount needed for three. - Visualisation bugs, somet...
