Hexcells infinite2/20/2023 It's a minesweeper-esque game on a hex grid with some slightly different rules and a guarantee that you can win every puzzle without guessing. If you're familiar with the games then you probably already know the deal. Depending on how tough they are it might keep me going for a bit when I'm not doing Tametsi. I might check a couple out in a minute though. It also has randomly generated puzzles, of which I've done none. It is probably the best of them: great difficulty curve, well designed puzzles, an interface that is as set as it needs to be, plus the addition of user puzzles, of which I did a few. I've kinda not progressed much with the incredibly hard Tametsi but was still kind of in the mood to feel like I could get somewhere so I grabbed this. This went on sale for real cheap recently so I grabbed it. I can see leaving this installed, and playing it every so often when I have time to kill.Ĭompletion: All puzzles complete, all but one with max score. 10 or 15 minutes to do a puzzle, with some thinking, but not killer amounts. I like the Infinite aspect, the random puzzles are about the difficulty level I like. I do wish the game would retain exactly how I left the visibility of everything when you reload a level in progress, instead of making everything visible again. You have to activate it in the lower left of the title screen, and I missed seeing it for most of my play. There's also a nice way to highlight the area of one specific clue, but it's turned off by default. Interface wise there are some nice improvements, such as hiding clues you've used up that no longer provide any needed information. Much of my time played is just staring at the screen correlating numbers (1 of those 3, 2 of those 4, 1 of those 2, does that eliminate anything? No.) I blasted through the first 25 puzzles or so, but the last few all took multiple hours each. But I found the last few levels insanely hard. It's been quite a few years since I played the first two in the series, so I can't really judge the difficulty of this vs the previous incarnations.
