Ratings and Reviews
Patience required
No matter what I tried including the most obvious start, nothing seem to start this game. Eventually after many attempts something worked.
This is a game which requires patience because it is nothing like always intuitive. So if you like to ponder about what solution is going to make progress, this is a good game.
Nothing to be done in a rush. Clever.
Enjoyable and different
Type a word to try and get the letters to hit the target(s) as they fall. It’s all about gravity Os will roll, Ps will be top heavy and fall over etc. A clever and enjoyable concept, and I love the 2D backgrounds, no instructions tho and it took me a while to realise you don’t need to form a word at all but can just type random letters which makes it easier although detracts from the challenge.
Later levels get a bit confusing as you have to achieve different goals such as covering all targets at the same time, Unfortunately it doesn’t tell you on each level the goal, especially if you come back to the game after not having played for a while, this can get really frustrating, I’ve got to level 28 hit both targets with all 3 letters and nothing happens, a bug or am I doing something wrong? Perhaps a reminder of the goal if a player fails after several attempts would be a handy feature?
Great game, sometimes frustrating
This game is very easy to understand and play. You write letters in the sky that drop onto 2d platforms and fall like real objects: an ‘r’ topples to the right when it hits the ground, an ‘o’ rolls down a hill like a ball, an ‘i’ has a dot that can be hit like a golf ball off an enormous tee. Your goal is to get your letters to cover certain dots.
The game is at times hilarious but can also be very frustrating. Many of the puzzles can seemingly be solved in many ways, while others seem more like challenge levels, where only one or a very narrow range of solutions is possible. Some of these puzzle levels I reasoned my way through, while the more frustrating ones seemed to just involve putting down lots of i and j letters and praying the little circles rolled the right way.
There are new mechanics introduced as you continue, but the best part of the game is just thinking about the shape of letter symbols.
Very minor aside: the game’s menu system is a bit clunky.
Definitely worth a look for the cost.
