PUZZLE: OCEAN is a "template" flip. The Russian "developer" filled out a basic jigsaw puzzle template for the craptastic GameMaker Studio (a blight on gaming), presumably ripped off the Yoyogames marketplace, changed the name, dumped some stolen images from the internet on it, and put it on Steam as if it was their own game. AFBIK Studio have a known history of trying to scam people into paying them money for someone else's work. One example of AFBIK Studio doing this is [url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/882070]Platonir[/url], which is really the "[url=https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/templates/2d-platformer-2016-easiest-way-to-make-a-2d-game-55498]2D Platformer 2016[/url]" asset, written by the actual developers, HazAssets. Taking this shovelware seriously as if it was a genuine attempt to make a game, it doesn't meet basic minimum requirements that most PC gamers expect as standard. There's no options to change the resolution for the game or customise the graphics settings. There's no way for gamers to ensure this is running at the native resolution of their displays... there's no guarantee this game will look right on any PC as a result of this hamfisted design decision. There's no way for gamers to try improve the low quality graphics. For gameplay purposes, because the user interface for this game is mostly just 2D static images... it might as well be a browser game. And we all know, Steam isn't here to compete with Chrome and Firefox. If the game can be done in a web browser, it's just not rich or compelling enough to appeal to serious gamers on PC. Some of the defects in the game can be attributed to the choice of using the GameMaker Studio construction kit/toolset. This is a very poor quality toolset favoured by amateur developers as it's cheap and requires little in the way of development skill, but unfortunately has very limited capabilities. Just as you can't make a silk purse out of a sows ear, you can't make a great video game if you use a terrible engine. GameMaker Studio is often used to make retro pixel shovelware and cash grabs. These technical defects push this game below acceptable standards for any modern PC game. The poor quality of this game is reflected in the general public reception. At the time of this review, SteamDB shows the all-time peak player number was only 4 players. That's right, only 4. This is a remarkably low number, and now, the only player activity occurs once or twice a month, presumably someone loading it up to see what it is then quickly uninstalling it. Considering there's over 120 million gamers on Steam and well over 50,000 games for gamers to choose from, the overwhelming lack of interest in the game is to be expected. Gamers just didn't take this low quality game seriously, and for good reason. PUZZLE: OCEAN is relatively cheap at $1 USD, but it's not worth it. Given the defects and quality issues with the game, coupled with the unrealistic price, and the questionable ethical nature of the developer and/or their associates (as outlined above), this is impossible to recommend. [b]Note:[/b] Valve have marked this game as "Profile Features Limited" at the time of this review. This is usually caused by poor sales figures for the game (to date). Until this status changes, this game will not count towards your Game Collector counts, achievements or any other Steam meta-accomplishments, nor can it be displayed in some profile showcases. If these factors are important to you, it may be worth holding off before buying this game.

PUZZLE: OCEAN - a logical game in which your task is to collect puzzles and get a picture of different marine fauna. You need to collect from the small pictures one big and after you may to going at the new level Features: Simple controls (mouse) Relaxing soundtrack. Beautiful pictures of marine fauna. Gameplay for children and adults. - Paid DLC needed for all achievements Credits: Programming: AFBIK Studio Music and effects: zapsplat Pictures: Internet
