Water Connect Puzzle

I have been thoroughly enjoying Water Connect Puzzle and I think it is a splendid way to pass the time or cure boredom. I especially love the levels where you blend primary colors to make secondary colors, and I appreciate that the ads are very manageable with some tolerance built up. This game is exactly what is shown in its ads, and I admire that it’s not a pay-to-win type of game. You can get all the backgrounds and styles without having to blow all of your money, you just have to play the game. I’m already past level 100, and I’m still having lots of fun. My only complaint is about the hint system. I don’t mind that you have to watch an add to get a hint, but it bothers me that the tiles that it shows the correct rotation for only have the light around them for a few seconds. I often forget what tiles were corrected, so I would like it if the light ring would stay around them until you beat the level. Other than that, I would definitely recommend this game 9/10!

I love these types of games, but all too often they’re just level after level of simple puzzles, with no real challenge. This is a surprising exception. The levels do get progressively more difficult, and many of them require some real thought and consideration to solve. Where it needs work: Sadly, the game does drain my battery quickly; I only play more than 1 or 2 levels if I’m charging my phone; it also seems to overheat my phone . If this proves to be a long-term problem, I may decide to ditch the game, but I hope not. I’ve seen other reviews mention having to watch a full ad after every level, but I’m not experiencing that. An ad after every level, yes, but all of them have a close option after 5 seconds or so. BUT some of the ads do “glitch” when you try to close them; it shows the x to close, but when I tap it, it takes me to the download page, sometimes several times in a row on the same ad. I realize this is not a problem with the game, but with the ad itself. And it’s maybe one ad in 20 that does this. All in all, worth the download at least.

I tend to download and delete lots of games. I stopped playing Gems of War recently and I’ve tried a lot of games to fill some time. Some games are too easy and I spend as much time watching ads as I do playing. Some games you’re just hoping for the right next piece so you can beat your previous score or time, but you never really feel like you progress. It’s gets boring fast. Still others you progress through until you start reaching levels that feel nearly impossible to beat. And many of these games have the same RNG issues that make other games boring forcing you to play the same level many times. So far, Water Connect doesn’t have any of those problems. Many of the first 40 levels have been easy, but some have been challenging. More importantly it keeps my interest because each level has been a little different and the only way you can fail a level is to give up.
