inbento is a really excellent puzzle game. It's got a nice difficulty curve as you progress and more mechanics are added. The story is also really cute. 8/10, absolutely worth the price.

A sweet puzzle game that tells a colourful and heartwarming story through food and fun challenges. The puzzles are tricky, but nothing that is too frustrating. I am taking my time getting through the entire game and getting the game mechanics down. Overall, the game leaves me hungry and wishing I had a homemade bento, and satisfied with the difficulties I had to overcome. Definitely a good price at regular cost, but an amazing deal when on sale!

Super cute but gets deceptively tricky fast! I really like the underlying story so far.

Very polished and relaxing game. Few levels can be difficult at first, but once you think them through it's like "that was quite smart, but obvious at the same time". Brilliant.

inbento is a cute puzzle game.
I usually like these type of game and while the art style is super cute and the little story (well, the cute slice of life pictures) was nice to look at, I wasn't a fan of how the rest was executed. The music is relaxing but wow the game isn't to my great surprise. I thought this was a cute and easy game about arranging a Bento box... it kind of starts that way but it gets way too difficult! I enjoyed the first 4-5 worlds, but the last ones (aside from the one with a 'fill' block) were a lot of trial and error and restarting each levels 10+ times became annoying really fast.
It's a shame because if I went into this game with a mindset that it's a challenging puzzle game, I would've treated it differently. I wanted something to relax and it ended up being the total opposite. The cute music became very repetitive as I got stuck on almost every levels during the second half of the game, taking my enjoyment out entirely. Some levels were really easy near the end, but others just hurt my head.
Overall, a complex puzzle game with a cute art style. Recommended for puzzle aficionados only!
