green (game)

I have been spending some time racing my friend to finish all of the color puzzle games. I have completed red, yellow, and blue, and am now working on green. The issue I’ve run into is that the puzzles in this game are extremely frustrating at points. It is near impossible to solve most of them without using hints. However, my main complaint is level 47. In this level you’re supposed to spell GREEN using cactuses in different shapes, matching the bottom halves to the top halves to make the letters. I have tried every combination I can think of to spell GREEN and none of them work. I have spent half an hour on this. Either your game is bugged or the solution to this puzzle is so difficult and illogical that I can’t even get it by literally trying every combination that could POSSIBLY make the letters for this word. It’s ruined the experience of this game for me.

I have already played Yellow, Red, Black, and Blue (my favourite being Blue), so I decided to try out Green, and was quite impressed. I believe that it is a bit more difficult than the others, which I love. Also, the music is outstanding, just like the music in the rest of the games. However, I’m really confused by level 40. It makes no sense, and the hint button doesn’t work. Other than that, an amazing, addictive game. PS: which of your Color Games is your favourite?

As a puzzle game, Green is alright. The mechanisms of each level are different, yet are all solved the same – trial and error by tapping/sliding objects until you win. There’s hardly any logic involved in solving each level and it feels as though the developers created the game in a similar manner. Regardless, the puzzles are unique and unconventional. However, the difficulty is static. Each puzzle is about as challenging as the last, so the game devolves into a mindless “idle” game that fails to impress as the player progresses. Some levels even take too long to solve despite the solution becoming obvious within the first 5 seconds (e.g. the snake game). It’s not especially engaging. Although Green is a puzzle game, it should not be marketed as one. The game does not encourage critical thinking since there are rarely any repercussions for “incorrectly” solving a puzzle. It should be marketed as a mindless tapper game instead. It more closely resembles this genre of game anyways.
