Slices: Shapes Puzzle Game 200404

The human mind is an enigma unto itself and is such a powerful tool if harnessed well. Most humans simply don't train their minds to perform better in crunch situations by not exercising their brains enough. Puzzles are usually a great, entertaining and low-stakes method of keeping your brain sharp, active and attentive. Puzzles help you with your ability to solve problems of different kinds and to strategize according to the problem at hand. There are different types of puzzles that focus on different analytical capabilities with a good puzzle offering great entertainment besides solid exercise for your brain. Slices is a puzzle game that falls in the category of a 'good' puzzle as it is both challenging for your mind as well as entertaining as well. The game requires you to adjust different pieces of slices coming your way into different slots without ever running out of space. Quick thinking, visual processing and forward thinking are all put to the test by this fast-paced and addictive puzzle game.

The puzzle game starts with a short tutorial that introduces you on how to place each given slice against a particular pie. The first two moves are guided and then you are left on your own to figure out the rest of the game. The game's main core idea is to complete the level before you run out of moves to adjust a given piece of pie against the six available pie slots on the screen. Since the idea is very simple and the controls are a piece of cake, it is good that the tutorial is kept short and sweet.

The puzzle game has a very simple gaming methodology and it is kept the same through each level. However, the difficulty scale keeps rising after every passing round as you need to score more to move on to the next level and every misstep starts costing you as you move forward in the game. It is not just important to keep placing the oncoming pie pieces against the various slots available, you need to place them strategically so that whenever you complete a particular pie, you not only blow it open but also blow open the other two pie slots on each side of the pie. By accommodating greater number of pie pieces in close proximity with each other, you gain a better chance of opening up more spaces for every oncoming pie.

The puzzle game requires you to strategize with the nature of the game being such that you would by default not think much while playing the game. This means that you have to be quick on your feet and know what you are doing in order to succeed in the game. It is a particularly good idea to start from the top pie and start accommodating as many pie pieces as possible with the top three pies. Whenever accommodation space is not available, you should move downwards. There are useful options like the 'hammer' that can be used to free up a particular pie so that you can accommodate further pie pieces though these should be used as a last resort as these offer you help in exchange for watching ad videos.
The game keeps changing the pie recipes with each passing round in order to keep the gaming environment fresh and this is great for users who would probably not even notice a change of levels otherwise.

Features:

• Fast-paced gameplay that requires quick thinking
• Progressively difficult rounds that minimize opportunities for mistakes
• Excellent hint options that allow for hammering out a pie that is creating problems for you
• Cool theme changes after every round ensures the gaming environment is kept fresh

Conclusion:

Slices is an interesting and impressive puzzle game that offers an entertaining gaming experience. With multiple challenging rounds and a very easy-to-understand gameplay, this is a cool offering for anyone who wants to keep their mind sharp by solving interesting puzzles.
