Proverbs Reviews

Got it on sale for like 5 euros, thought it'd be a good "second monitor" type of time waster, and it absolutely was. I was supposed to run it for a bit whenever I had nothing better to do, but it quickly became the thing I wanted to do the most anyway. One of the easiest recommendations of my life. No bullshit, just click the numbers and paint the picture while you chill and do whatever else on the side.

A joyful experience for puzzle lovers. It presents a vast field of solvable problems, and there's always something in front of you to hook into. Combined with really lovely, soothing music, and you have a wonderfully chill, finite experience. 4.5/5 Also worth noting: while it's not optimized for Steam Deck, it is highly playable on it. You will need to enter the game using the trackpad, for instance, but once you're in the inputs are intuitive and effective.

A wonderful combination of Minesweeper + Sudoku + Picross with some excellent zen music. It takes a little bit to start recognizing more and more of the patterns, but once you do its a really nice flow state to play.

It's possible to play on Steamdeck, just not as convenient as with mouse. RB/LB = zoom Left stick to scroll over the board. RT/LT to clear the tiles, OR use touchscreen + in the Settings > General set Click to 'cycle' instead of 'toggle'

Minesweeper, but chill and badass. Impeccable UI. Infinite love.

Perfect brain-smoothing entertainment. A wonderful antidote to computer poisoning. Succumb to repetition and elevate your being.

This was an exceptional puzzle experience. It was addicting yet rewarding completing each smaller puzzle to bring together the larger picture. I had no idea what to expect with this game, but was very glad I took a chance on it. "Wild bears prefer each other's company" - Proverbs

An extremely solid puzzle experience that I played so much, I would often daydream of solving sections. Uncovering the art work and the proverbs were a great little treat for solving this enormous board

It's so simple and it shouldn't be this fun, but it is. Super addicting and satisfying to see the big painting come together with each finished section

A wonderfully easy puzzle game that's a mix of nonogram and minesweeper. You have a massive blank picture frame filled with little segments meant to be solved. After solving a section, it typically rewards you with a proverb and an accompanying achievement. This positive feedback loop goes on until the picture frame is filled with a pixel art Picasso showcasing all the proverbs you've learned. Highly recommend!
