Glass Masquerade 3: Honeylines Reviews

AI SLOP, how tf did it get this far without a tag lmao

best game if you are trying to chill a little bit :) really enjoyed it

This puzzle group seems to be somewhat challenging to me. It gets easier, in my opinion, as each puzzle progresses.

Glass Masquerade is exactly what I need when I want to unwind. The gorgeous stained-glass puzzles, relaxing music and gentle pace make it the perfect mental reset between intense tasks or long work sessions. It’s chill, satisfying, and genuinely helps clear my mind. I work with people and pleasing everyone can be challenging, so I really enjoy keep coming back whenever I need a peaceful 10 min break to just relax a bit

Date of completion regarding Steam Achievements: July 9, 2025 It's like the other two games but with additional ways to play them. Best of all, the Steam Achievements can be acquired without completing the game in general. ...So I didn't. 🙂 But for those who do, here's the guides to help ya. https://steamcommunity.com/app/1536980/guides/ Also, shiny glass.

Why game 3 is always a disappointment? I love Glass Masquerade 1 and 2, but this one... the art is so simple, they abandoned the unique stained glass art that made this franchise unique... I felt like the developers lost love for your own game... It's really sad, I really recomend 1 and 2, and forget this one exist. Anyway, it's easier, you can finish a puzzle in 5 minutes, which is about 3 times faster compared to the previous ones.

I quite enjoyed the first two games(+DLC), but this one seems to be more annoying than fun. A couple of the board cuts give pieces in stages which devolves into a boring game of rotation trial and error just to unlock the next group of pieces. I miss having all individual pieces already available to play with. I love a challenge as I completed both previous iterations on hard difficulties, but the new boards and badges feel like a way to extend the life of the game artificially, forcing you to replay the puzzles to get that last achievement.

More of the same, but with some more game modes. Still has beautiful artwork.

The third part of this little series is full of kitsch and clichés, I love it! The slightly animated presentation and the way the puzzle pieces glow with a little movement won't be everyone's cup of tea, but I thought they created a magical atmosphere. The soundtrack definitely added to that. The art style is clearly different from 1 and 2, and it's so smooth that the newest DLC has been accused of being made with genAI (not sure if true, or if they at least used one that was trained with their own previous art instead of stolen work). I really liked some of the pictures, others I found a bit too much. The different sets of options for the puzzles give this one much more replay value than the previous parts. I strongly prefer the classic settings, but it's easy to just igno... wait, there's a badge system for different options? Oh no... I canNOT resist badges.

It's another solid Glass jigsaw puzzle game. I was actually a little bit disappointed in this compared to the previous game. From the onset, the game provides you with a myriad of options on how to set the puzzles. While it's nice to have these additional options, I wish it had defaulted to the previous setup of the past game which had it the way I like it already. For the first 15 minutes I was confused as to why it felt so terrible rotating my pieces. Turns out they changed the default setting from the previous game to make rotating your pieces not set to 'inverted' (which is the typical standard in games). Fortunately this was a setting I could toggle in the options/controls menu. So while this made my start with the game a little off-putting, the main reason this felt like a step down from the previous game was that the puzzles are much easier to complete. I feel the primary reason for this is that there are less angles you can rotate your pieces. This iteration of Glass Masquerade was fun anyhow, and possibly the best thanks to the additional options. You could easily sink 3-4x playtime into this than the previous games.
