Dawn of a Soul Reviews

This game really works your brain in a good way. One of the most relaxing games I've played as well.

A fantastic puzzle game. The difficulty curve is very well done, it has a huge range from the easiest to the hardest puzzle, and you can branch out along the way. Every puzzle has perfect information, there's no hidden tricks or tips. The art is great, and it runs on a toaster. Even the music is nice and soothing.

This game will overclock your brain! Simple addition and multiplication? Oh no, nonononono. What you get here is a game that will teach you logical thinking, while you (a leftover ghost) try to win back your very soul from (I think) SATAN. Who made this game! You are playing a puzzle game from Satan. It surely is hard enough to be from hell. But everything here was done right. Music builds atmosphere, but let's you concentrate. Controls could be from a mobile version, but are easy and understandably besides the point. Visuals are the right amount of spooky and colourful but let you concentrate. The sounddesign is on point and enhances the controls quite well. The puzzles feel sooo good, when you solve them. 100% thumbs up! Go regain your soul now! The hint system is obsolete in its current form, and I could use a better one with more hints... Satan... EDIT: Turns out, Satan is a man (?) of his word and actually quite nice. At least in this game. Having retrieved my soul by the power of my external brain (the dev's walkthrough), I realized a mistake I made, that made puzzles quite unsolvable. Which was completely my mistake and not the games fault. DAWN OF A SOUL is a perfect example for good presentation. The game itself would be fantastic, but the presentation adds so much to it! Recommendations all around. Follow my curator at http://store.steampowered.com/curator/28337205-Fair-Minded-Witness/?appid=701910

this game is a great puzzler, but i cant recommend it due to non-gamplay issue which is one one the worse color contrast/saturation/brightness ratios ive ever experienced in game. This game makes my eyes bleed after about 20 mins of gameplay, no matter how i adjust my monitor, and i spend on average +12h daily behind screen without any issues. i assume main thing to blame is bright soul/firelike animation. I would say skip it if you dont want to get blind.

TL;DR - Great game for a quick mind challenge! Dawn of a Soul is a tricky mathematical puzzle game. It starts out straightforward and easy but the learning curve is steep and after only a couple of minutes your brain will start smoking. In a time when a lot of indie games are simple "pay to win" games this is a refreshing experience. The visuals are great and very rewarding. Considering this has been developed by a single person makes the game even better!
