Designed by the great Russian puzzler Alexey Pajitnov, the creator of Tetris,
this excellent puzzle game in which you must solve puzzles in order to locate the
seven tricksters, Maui, Puck, Eris, Monkey, Anansi, Coyote, and Raven, released from
Pandora's Box and return them to its confines. To trap each trickster, you must
locate four pieces of the box in cities around the world, and then capture the
trickster himself in a special extra-hard puzzle. It includes 350 puzzles of 10
different kinds created for this game: "Find and Fill," "Focus Point," "Image Hole,"
"Interlock," "Jesse's Strips," "Lens Bender," "Outer Layer," "Overlap," "Rotascope,"
and "Slices." The puzzles feature pictures, art, and objects appropriate to the
cities in which they're set. As you proceed, you can find tokens for hints and free
puzzles in case you get stuck or don't like some of the puzzle types (which can get
rather difficult on the later levels). A year later, the Puzzle Game Of The Year
Edition was released which included about fifty more puzzles bringing the total
number up to 400. These bonus puzzles are accessible from the main menu and are not
included in the "quest" portion of the game. |
