Danger!Energy Reviews

Danger!Energy is a fun puzzle game with, as far as I'm aware, a unique concept. The goal is to create a segmented path of light through all of the "generators". Some levels have only a few generators and some have many. Some levels have unlimited segment lengths while others have limited segment lengths. Some of the levels are easy, but many of them require careful planning of the path as well as trial and error to determine how activating each generator affects the level overall (by controlling switches, activating "substations" which emit their own light, etc). Even though it requires a lot of trial and error, which I usually find annoying, I found Danger!Energy to be extremely enjoyable. I never felt frustrated or angered, despite the difficulty of many of the levels. If there's anything I could point to as a con, and it's something that others may find frustrating or annoying, it's that many of the levels require pixel-perfect accuracy, so you need to have a steady hand. It is always clearly indicated where you can place your light segment and where you cannot, so it's never guesswork, but there are many points where you have literally only one pixel on which to place your light. Even with this required accuracy (which would normally cause me to quit in frustration and never look back), I always found this game to be enjoyable and never found it to be a chore or tedious. There are 80 levels in total -- 5 sections with 15 levels each, and then one more level per section after you complete those 75 levels. My play time is just over 13 hours, though I tend to take longer than others in most games. Whatever your skill or playing speed, I expect this game will keep you entertained for quite a while. I definitely recommend this to anyone who enjoys puzzle games and has a steady hand.

It is a fun puzzle game, that doesn't feel overly hard. But you need to first wrap your head around the idea with the lights that needs to be connecting to restore energy flow. The plot isn't that relevant, but it is a nice touch. Started it a few years ago and enjoyed it, now picking it up again and it is still fun.
