YAPP2: Yet Another Pushing Puzzler Reviews

Actually fantastic

Recommendation: Avoid. While the puzzles in the game may be good, the creator doesn't care about the overall quality of the experience: * despite selecting a resolution at startup, the text of the title screen is blurry * the camera positioning is locked, despite the puzzles being inherently 3D * it is routinely difficult to predict in which direction a press of the arrow key / WASD keys a block will move, even though an optional UI could have helped a lot in this regard. tldl; this game is simple enough that it could have been programmed from scratch in C/raylib and could have easily of been of high polish, but instead the creator used Unity... and the lack of experience shows. Avoid.

This is a good puzzle game until you reach the last stage(stage 6)in this stage the puzzles become hard to the point that you would have to get into developers head to figure out every move and exactly what that person had in mind when he was creating this.I could do that and waste another 20 hrs but I see no point in doing that.Up until last chapter the puzzles are well done and there are some very clever ones too.The game is inspired by English Country tune and you can see that in every mechanic and even the graphics but sadly in the end this game is too smart for its own good,If you like puzzle games and dont mind the uber hard last stage then you can give it a go.

The best Puzzle game since Stevens Sausage Roll! Take a unique but simmple mechanic, twist, squeeze, splice, dice and stretch it to maximise truly creative level design while keeping true to the core mechanic. The goal is to cover all exposed orbs of light with a moveable box, seams easy enough.. WRONG!! You often find yourself stareing at a level wondering how the hell you're going to be able to do it, sometimes you find yourself thinking that its impossible. The beauty with games like this is that the answer is always just right in front of you, you just didn't see it. There is no tutorial, but with a small amount of trial and error its easy to figure out the games core mechanics. Rarely does a solution seem accidental and (Barring a few levels), it never feels like you're divulging in tedium. Asethetically the game can be a bit jarring, static backdrops in harsh primary colours tend to strain the eyes a little, especially if on the same level for a while. Similarly with the music - Its quite nice but its a short looped snippet (can get a bit annoying). But these are only minor critisisms as the puzzles bring you so much joy (and frustration, joyous frustration) If you're a fan of the puzzle genre you really can't miss out on this. The level design alone is genius, and the feeling you get when solving a level is so warm. There are Six 9-level worlds with each world ramping up in difficulty. For the average player there are at least 15 hours of gameplay and for under £2.00 its a friggin STEAL Just play it.

A clever puzzle game with good progression. I liked the author's earlier game YAPP 1, and although YAPP 2 is a very different type of game, it is also a fine puzzler. YAPP 2 reminds me of both "English Country Tune" and "Stephen's Sausage Roll" - like those games it makes some devious puzzles out of simple-seeming mechanics in three dimensional space. It also has a good progression of difficulty - as I made progress I looked back on early levels that had me confused and realise how straight-forward they seem now I'm more familiar with the mechanics. It may take a little while to get used to the controls & camera, but there is no time pressure and you have full undo so it doesn't matter if you press the wrong button occasionally :) Thoroughly recommended.
