Flow Free: Shapes

The original flow free game changed my life for the better. When I first saw it originally I was like no way this game would be good. That was until I started playing it. The first ever time I moved the flow to right spot I think I fell in love. The “squish” sound everytime you made a move was so relaxing and satisfying. I also love that this game challenges my mind. Unlike other games, this game challenges me to think with high expertise. I feel like this is the reason I enjoy the original 10x10 mode the best. Then we come to this game. THE BEST REMAKE OR SEQUAL OF ALL TIME. This game uses unreal mechanics to make 3 dimensional shapes that look surreal. The amount of work put into this game is amazing. The flows, as always, sound perfect and the look perfect also. My favorite is the 3x3 square because it looks and FEELS the best. The way the flows move up and down the square is something beyond my comprehension. Thank you thank you thank you Big Duck Games for having me play such a well made game. Everyday I hop on this and it makes me happy. I want to thank you guys for making this world a better place. Much love, Me.

i’ve got to be honest, i am absolutely enamored with this game. i’ve been playing this game for so many years. started off when i was in summer camp probably like 10 years old…i’m now in college and i’ve been playing this game religiously. i finished the game officially in 2017 on a trip to boston and even still i’ve continued to play this game everyday. i was really excited when the original game added daily and weekly puzzles bc i just craved something new. honestly, im not the biggest fan of the hexes, warped, or the bridges so i haven’t gotten those games and was really looking forward to a few new puzzles and just a few days ago, i got a notification that a new game was released of shapes… i am HOOKED!!! i am honestly so impressed bc i feel like i’ve been training for this game since i started playing it. i do wish that i didn’t have to pay for the full version or have any ads but i guess that’s just the new norm these days but i will pay bc i do not want to be disturbed while i’m playing. i love flow and i now am loving flow shapes!

I have been playing the flow free series of games for a decade now. OG, bridges, and hexes are great. Warps can be a slog, but still good. Shapes is ambitious and trippy. The primary game mechanic is smooth and intuitive as in the others. The additional pack/ad free purchase is great value as always. But everything else is weird. The first weekly pack called “bricks” was hard on the eyes and not intuitive to complete. The 3D packs in the extreme category have links that are hidden by other ones e.g. the skyscraper pack. The mountain pack is very difficult to get your line going where you want it. Jumbo cubes look squashed or stretched depending on layout of the links. And the worst part of the game is the button layout. They eliminated the level navigation buttons, and put the hint button in their place. They also moved the reset level button to the corner where the hint button is in all the other games. This alone knocked a star off. You have four other games laid out in one specific way. Why would you change that for the fifth? In summary. I will finish all the packs eventually. But will I have a 3000 day daily streak like I do in the original, or do the weekly’s? I doubt it. I would’ve preferred additional packs to be released for the other games than getting this one. They were ambitious. Props for the effort. But after several hundred levels, my biggest takeaway is that my eyes hurt. Cheers.
