Today we have two games that have totally blown my mind when I first got them.  That game is Edge, which comes in two parts, the next part being Edge Extended.  Edge has a demo for the game as well.   Here is the demo for Edge.  I have both of these games.  I got them from the Humble Bundlealong with a bunch of other games.

It’s hard to keep up with all of the sudoku puzzle apps that keep cropping up.

SudoFeud comes from Roel Griffioen. It’s a game that you must play against an opponent. It’s a bit similar to Scrabble. Watch this video: http://www.sudofeud.com/

Throughout my short trip through puzzle land, I’ve noticed a few puzzle designers that stand out. One of them is Jean-Claude Constantin and in this review, I’m going to talk about one of his puzzles called Centrale. I took an interest in Jean-Claude’s puzzles because of their contemporary look. The main reason I like to collect puzzles is the enjoyment of understanding the puzzle mechanics and solving them of course. However, it helps when the puzzles look great. Jean-Claude’s puzzles comfortably fill all those requirements. I did a little research and found out that there are two versions of the [Read More...]
