Luminetic Land (Free)
What’s it about? Casual puzzler Luminetic Land tasks players with moving round lights around various levels in order to light up stars as quickly as possible.
What’s cool? Luminetic Land is a puzzler that tasks players with controlling how light moves through various stages. To do that, you’ll have to move a round ball that acts as a light source, and direct it around various obstacles to cast light on stars to clear each stage. The only way to move each light source is to set it rolling using magnets set in the walls of the level, however – so which magnet you use and how long you activate its attractive power is important to solve each stage. Later levels have players carefully navigating maze-like structures and using things like gravity and physics to move their light sources, and you’ll also have to combine different colors of light to illuminate certain stars. Your score is determined by how fast you can illuminate all the stars in a given stage.
Who’s it for? Fans of casual puzzlers that require quick thinking and careful timing should check out Luminetic Land.
