Top Con

Randomness of game can be frustrating

The randomness of what new tiles appear can be frustrating when nothing is lining up very well. See More

Being a portrait style game that has large graphics that are meant to be played with one hand, Threes! fits better on a smaller screen device such as phones more so than a tablet. See More

Any error can be fatal

There's no undo in the game, so a wrong swipe and you can lose all your progress. See More

Top Pro

No time limit to solve the puzzles

There's no time limit to force the issue, but that doesn't matter, because it's so damnably slick to both the touch and the brain that you'll throw moves out with the same speed and grace that climbing into a tiny boat forbids. See More

Grant Ryan Swan's Experience

Bridge Constructor Portal

Top Pro

Interesting puzzles

While BCP at its core is a game about building bridges so your forklift can pass, the sci-fi elements of the Portal series make it a lot more interesting. This includes sentry turrets that try to destroy your forklift along the way, gel that speeds up your forklift letting it ascend almost vertical slopes, and even portals that allow travel between distant locations, creating solutions to seemingly impossible scenarios. It's simply fun to solve the many puzzles found in the game. See More

Top Con

Can feel frustrating

BCP relies heavily on trial and error, requiring you to build very precise and efficient bridges that don't make much sense initially. Because of this, your well-reasoned and carefully planned bridge might not work at all, which can be really frustrating. So unless you're a really patient player that's willing to try over and over, you probably won't enjoy BCP. See More

AmiableShadrafa's Experience

Worst game lengthy, See More

Specs

Steam Rating:Very Positive

Top Pro

Decent amount content for its price

While most puzzle games in this price range usually take only a few hours to beat, BCP has a total of 60 levels, taking about 10 hours for a full first time playthrough. You can even choose between a regular and a hard version of a level, further adding to the playtime. See More

Top Con

Can seem a little bland in its presentation

It has a simple visual style that uses very little color, the soundtrack gets repetitive fairly quickly, and the story feels like an afterthought. The puzzles are the main focus of BCP, but it feels like the developers might've forgotten about every other aspect of the game. See More

The game has is very addictive. It offers cute and adorable characters and unique game play. Player can feed this fluffy creatures and organize them by colors. Also the game play is dynamic.

Azat Beshimov's Experience

I love this game, wish i did find it earlier. It reminds me of the good old classics of gaming Lines 98. It is easy to start and hard to master. Wish it had more levels but as devs claim, they are still working on this game and should be adding more worlds. Infinite mode is fun, but lacking competitiveness, simple addition of high scores would be nice. Love simple family friendly cute graphics and amazing sounds. If you haven't tried it you should. I left best part of it for last, its totally free and FULLY AD FREE! From my experience currently way to many devs make "free" games riddled with annoying ad popups or just blatantly abandon their game to grab quick cash. Its good to see devs caring for their product and updating it often. See More

Top Pro

Ad-free

It is rare nowadays to see fully free product on the market that you can enjoy without ads that get shoved in your face. See More

Top Con

The graphic design and multiplayer gaming

The game provides a very cute design for characters, but overall GUI could be much better. Needs more professional graphic design for backgrounds. Needs improvements in GUI. Also if there is multiplayer gaming will be much better. See More

ArticulateGersemi's Experience

The game recommends it self as the most addictive game in the world, and I can say yes it is. It is very addictive, I passed 15 levels without break and even did not get tired. It is very dynamic and responsive for any action. I was surprised that the old puzzle game can be presented with new game mechanics and style. Definitely this is not an action game, it is very relaxing. I play it for hours after hard work. See More

The goal of the game is to find a way for the protagonists to evade the police agents, and to do that you must rearrange the animated comic book panels. Some stay in place, some can be moved, and some only flip around their axis. Every move means the main character's behavior changes, and so the action in one panel may be entirely different depending on what comes immediately before/after it. See More

Top Con

Short

The game can be finished in a few hours, though if you try to see all of the outcomes for each scene, it could take much longer. See More

Specs

Genre:Puzzle

The art is simple, not very detailed, characters are mainly black shadowy figures, but that only adds to the noir atmosphere. See More

Top Pro

Beautiful comic book-style graphics

Top Pro

Not too hard

The game starts out with an easy "switch two panels" scene, and it gradually gets more difficult as the game progresses. However, though you may have to think longer (or work through using a trial and error method) in some scenes, it never gets irritatingly difficult. There is no need to start the whole game over if you get caught, only the current scene. See More

There is a free version available for download that has no in app purchases but is limited to 20 points to which the game is cut off. Makes a good trial version to see how the game plays. See More

The gameplay for Monument Valley revolves around manipulating the environment in order to let your character proceed to the next level. It's similar to Fez in that it's obviously inspired by Escher paintings, requiring you to manipulate "impossible" architecture. See More
