A fantastic, cozy and clever game with lovely visuals, great soundtrack, and very fun puzzles! The core mechanic is very unique and the game fully explores what you can do with it without ever overwhelming or confusing the player :)

Fun and cute game. Surprisingly packed with puzzles and mechanics. The art style is really cute and the music is quite chill. The puzzles progress nicely, slowly introducing new ideas and ramping up the difficulty accordingly. Definitely recommended!

It was a completely delightful game, full of clever puzzles, exploration, fun mechanics and creative ideas. I finished it in about 2 hours, but I was already onto Nama Takahashi's antics from playing ElecHead, so consider this a fast completion.

Overall, extremely polished game design, music, level design and art! An easy 10/10 :D

Strange Jigsaws is a game about jigsaws, which are strange. Not to be confused with the game, which is also strange, and is also a jigsaw. You can solve it. Then you can solve it. And when you solve it, strangely, it's a jigsaw. Which you can solve. Just keep solving, you're almost there. 999,999 pieces, just one more to go :)

A short but fantastic puzzle game with a couple twists up its sleeve! Can be beaten somewhere between 30 minutes to 2 hours, depending on your puzzle disposition. Definitely worth checking :)

This game is, in my opinion, perfectly executed. It explores all of its ideas to the fullest, introduces mechanics clearly and elegantly, and has a really well-balanced difficulty curve. Its puzzles are tough as nails, but they never feel unfair, boring or overwhelming. Overall, a must play for puzzle fans who like a clever challenge!

This game became a fast favorite for me with how well it scratched my itch for coding-based puzzle games. The puzzles are simple enough that you can break them down into digestible parts, but challenging enough if you want to try optimizing your code for the leaderboard. Plus, the entire retro interface and active (real) forum only elevate the experience.

A must play if you like scripting in Lua :)

Surprisingly packed with juicy puzzles for its somewhat small campaign. Trying for 100% massively increased its puzzle difficulty and replayability, so I highly recommend it!

I'll preface this review by saying that some of the issues I encountered were already fixed or are in the process of getting fixed, which is a good thing to see right on release date. And while I do recommend this game (especially with its very cheap price), I have to address the elephant in the room: the game is incredibly short. I finished all 30 levels in less than 14 minutes in total. Ideally, it'd go for at least 50 and would explore a wider range of mechanics and ideas, but for what it does deliver, it does a pretty good job.

Graphics and music are very cute, and some of the puzzles are pretty clever. Some mechanics, especially with regards to undo, are not very clear at first, but the game is forgiving enough where you can experiment around with little to no loss in progress. Some of the rougher edges could have been avoided with a little more playtest and polish, but there was nothing immediately game-breaking or unfair when I first played (which was the very first version).

Overall, a decent experience and cute puzzler, and for less than a dollar! Would definitely like to see some quality-of-life features and hopefully new puzzles in a future update!

Very fun and charming! The game has a lot of systems and enemies to keep you engaged, and the art is very polished! It does feel a little grindy at times, especially in the early game, and you can "meta" the game by strategically ending turns early and spamming dice onto certain enemies/resources.
Still, overall it's a great game with lovely music to keep you in the loop :)
