There are around a dozen or so puzzle types, and they repeat with increasing difficulty as you advance through all one hundred puzzles in the game. The puzzles have a lot of variety, ranging from brain teasers like decoding a sequence of shapes, to reflex tests like labyrinth. These rewards are then used to help you skip through harder levels. You aren’t the only one working on this puzzle book, your rival pirate taunts you every few levels, and challenges you to odd events for hint coins and keys. Each of these is supposedly a page in a book that holds the secret to a great treasure. There are one-hundred puzzles, though many are just harder versions of similar puzzles. The Voyage is a variety puzzle game for iOS, themed around searching for pirate treasure. I’ve been a huge fan of variety puzzle games since the original Professor Layton game for the DS. What Sucks: If you’re looking for story, this isn’t the game for you.īuy it?: Fans of classic platformers looking for something new, check out Escape Goat 2. What’s Good: Fun game with good level design. They’re just short enough to keep you saying to yourself, “just one more level.” The levels are arranged into branches off a hub world, and each of them is about ten or fifteen minutes. Escape Goat 2 exemplifies the approach of making levels that are just a joy to play and solve. On the other hand, that gives the opportunity to smaller developers and publishers. Sadly it seems that the mainstream game developers aren’t interested in platformers anymore. You also have a mouse friend that you can use to hit switches or hold them down so you can advance through the levels. A puzzle platformer, the game puts the player in the role of a goat freeing the souls of other animals trapped in a branching maze. Their latest game, Escape Goat 2, lives up to that reputation. Almost every game they publish mixes great gameplay and design in a way that’s entertaining. Stylistic graphics not for everyone.īuy it?: If you’re looking for a funny game, but don’t mind stylized graphics grab Jazzpunk. What Sucks: Controls need customization, bad controller support. What’s Good: Fun sense of humor, lots of references to pop culture and old games. It’s stylized to a point of minimalism, think Katamari meets the Little People. (It could be that having a controller plugged in when I was first playing may have caused the settings to scramble.) If you’re really into graphical fidelity, you should skip this game. Just make sure to customize your settings when you first play. The controller support doesn’t map very well by default, and the basic keyboard controls are a little off as well. In the first level, to beat the security system you’ll need to play a Space Invaders clone, later on you’ll find mini-games based on other classics. Though the game is generally a first person adventure, there are scattered mini-games throughout.
Every time you get a mission your boss ends up disappearing under his desk, and if you peek around you’ll see him laying right under the desk. There’s also humor built right into the game.

The game is full of odd references to old games and other pop culture stuff. Jazzpunk would seem at home with the network’s brand of weirdness. That weirdness is likely why Adult Swim chose to publish it. If it sounds weird, well, it is, no doubt about it.

You have to do things like collect spiders to throw in the face of a sushi chef so you can steal a blowfish, or follow a series of clues to meet with various agents before getting a pigeon to smuggle. You take on the role of a British secret agent mailed to Japan. Enter Jazzpunk, a game that combines crazy art, a fictionalized version of the cold war, and a wicked sense of humor. Arty indie titles can often take things a bit too far into the serious side of things, turning off people who are looking for games that are just simple and stupid fun.
