RYB

I found this game as a follow-up recommendation to Hexcells that can likely be seen in many of the other reviews nearby. Having finished both games, I will echo that endorsement. RYB is even better than Hexcells, actually. The rules change more drastically as new elements are introduced; there's more variety. It's a shame more people haven't heard of this.

Hmmm, I don't know how to feel about this one. Theoretically it should be a deductive-type puzzle, but... maybe I'm just stupid, but occasionally I'd find a puzzle where I just did not understand how to make any further deductions, or that I didn't understand some rule (that was never directly explained), or something or other. And this would just happen at random in the level sets too, like, the last puzzle in the game, was one of the easiest in a while, meanwhile something like the 5 or 6 puzzle in the second-to-last puzzle set, nope, no clue how to work out the answers through deductive logic and I'm not sure what I'm missing. I dunno, in concept it could be a good puzzle game but I just ended up finding it really frustrating, and I usually enjoy puzzles like this - all the Matthew Brown puzzle games for example - but, I dunno, this one didn't work for me. It's only a dollar now so you might as well check it out, I guess, but... ehh.

Minimalistic logic based puzzle game. To me, it's very fun and challenging. A very simple base mechanic is used in interesting ways that make you scratch your head. Judging from the level select screen, I think it'll take me about 3-4 hours to beat it, which is good value for a $5 puzzle game. I would definately recommend it, especially if you enjoyed games like Hexcells.

Hey there, puzzlers!

It always feels really good when you hit that moment when playing a puzzle game where you've got it, you've figured it out, and everything falls into place one after another. this game has the opposite feeling; I solve a puzzle, but mostly feel frustrated because I'm not really sure why that's the solution. At first, when the game is introducing just the basic rules, it does a good enough job at teaching-by-doing. but as the rules get more complicated. it starts to do a worse job of it. I have completed the "white circle" themed area but have no idea what those circles mean - it was all just brute force and guesswork on my part. and even in areas with rules I understand I feel like the game's just not giving me enough specific information to solve the puzzles. The Witness tried a similar thing, and failed for a similar reason - it's very easy to either not understand what the game is trying to teach you, or to get the wrong lesson from the tutorials only to suddenly be confronted with...

An entertaining color puzzle based on logical exclusion. It reminds me of sudoku in some ways, but it's deeper and more varied. It's a little on the short side, but that's fine because the price is fair.

Ok so, I really like this game in theory. And at the begining I had a lot of fun. However, at some point later on, you will make a move that is perfectly valid, and makes complete logical sense; yet it is wrong, because later on in the puzzle, things don't line up. This would be fine, except there is no way to tell if a perfectly valid move your about to make, is actually perfectly valid because of some future puzzle piece you'll unlock if you solved a different part oif the puzzle first. In other words: The design and mechanics are solid and good, breath of fresh air even; but the puzzle design is infuriatingly inconsistant.

This is a great little logic-based puzzle game. My one complaint is that after the initial intro it doesn't really explain what the various symbols mean in later levels, which means that you're kind of stuck clicking randomly for a little while until it "clicks." That said, the puzzles are quite well designed and I found the whole game to be a very enjoyable experience. Obviously it's not for everyone, and some people will balk at spending even 5 dollars on a game that will probably only last you a few hours at most, but I thought it was well worth it.

It is with great displeasure that I give this game a negative review. I'm a fan of FLEB's YouTube channel, so I went into RYB with high expectations that were not met. I played through the entire game, 100%, and at no point did I feel like there was some grand "eureka" moment where I'd discovered some nuance the puzzle was trying to coax me into finding. The entire time I felt like I was going off of strong hunches that were almost always correct. Good puzzle design will often lure the solver into a trap to force them to think critically about some false assumption or something, but most of the puzzles just lured me straight into the solution. The few puzzles that I didn't solve straight away were usually the result of tunnel vision more than anything. Maybe this is a game targeted towards those newer to puzzle games and I've just been spoiled by tougher games in the genre. In that case, I still wouldn't recommend the game, because it doesn't feel great to play, either. I'm willing to ...

This minimalistic puzzle game is a must-have for every puzzle lover! The puzzles have a gradual learning curve, with new mechanics introduced for each new puzzle area. It took me three hours to solve it 100% and it didn't get boring along the way but kept on intriguing me. Very good value for a price of 5€.
