adrift
Draw and connect star points without crossing paths to solve every level in the puzzler adrift by Tack Mobile (note: this is a html5 game, so you'll need a recent browser).
awesome concept but it's really frustrating that the surrounding tiles can so easily be colored as well if you're not super careful about where your cursor is on the tile. XP
Nothing new in the concept, this is another Hyper Frame / 3D Logic clone - but with worse graphics and horrid response time. I had to hover over each square along the path sometimes 3 seconds or more before the game would recognize the move.
The level-select menu is attractive, but it's the only "whimsy" anywhere, as the background in each level is identical.

ReplyDeleteIt was fun! (Yes, you have to operate your mouse carefully.)

Yeesh, I'm stuck on level two.
ReplyDelete...........really, really, really easy. and it needs more levels.
ReplyDeleteHow in the world do you do #5?
ReplyDeleteJaymar - that is an issue with your computer. It is lightening fast on mine.
ReplyDeleteJessica - thanks, good to know!
ReplyDeleteTurns out it works fine in Firefox. In Chrome v25.0.1364.172, it's very slow plus the squares don't color in as they should.
ReplyDeleteJessica - For #5 you have to make yellow take a really long route.
ReplyDeleteJessica, for level 5 hover here
ReplyDeleteFun but a little too short.
ReplyDeleteThank you Jaymar!
ReplyDeleteHow do you complete level 9? I keep clashing with the colors.
ReplyDeletefor #9
ReplyDeleteStay on the outside for yellow, then the same for green, then start red on the outside, but do not exaggerate, then the rest is simple.
Sorry, correction for my description of 20:24: also for red you have to stay on the outside as far as possible.
ReplyDeleteIf you like this game. youll absolutely love this one. same thing but funner and alot longer. enjoy :)

At 20:24 & 20:28, thank you for your help!
ReplyDeleteIs level 10 possible?? It seems like I've tried just about every combination...
ReplyDeleteOf course, figured it out just after posting...
ReplyDeletenice!
ReplyDeleteI'm sure I've played something similar before, hence I was pretty good at this one: sweet feeling...
Thank you, Bart. Have a gooood Sunday.
Huh. Is the browser game meant to be a prequel to something? Ten levels feels a might short to me.
ReplyDeleteA fun diversion though. I love the cube puzzlers.
nice, but too easy and too short, please gimme more
ReplyDeletemore levels,pleeeeeease
ReplyDeleteIf you want more levels like this, this game was of course inspired by this game from 2007: 3d logic 2
ReplyDeleteOh, yes! Thank you, Bart! But I must have played it way more recently than 2007... my brain is not that good :)
ReplyDeleteFor what it's worth, the game worked fine for me using Chrome 25.0.1364.172 on Mac OS/X 10.6.8.
ReplyDeleteStuck on level 7! Please help!
ReplyDeleteNever mind, I got it.
ReplyDeleteLevel 9 is hard now!!!
ReplyDeleteI'm done now. It needs more levels.
ReplyDeleteI can't figure out level seven nothing seems to work
ReplyDeletenothing "whimsical" about it except for the title screen. Very boring. There are tons of games out there like this.
ReplyDeletekinda short but i loved it
ReplyDeletehey- have played this type of game before- I like the concept, but could not get past level 8- seems like it is impossible
