Orbyss

“Orbyss proves less is more, with a snappy runtime filled with decently balanced puzzles and continuous new ideas to keep things fresh. A slightly more robust hint system would be great for when players need it, but otherwise Orbyss comes with a hearty recommendation if you’re in the market for a few evenings of puzzle goodness.”

“When it comes to Orbyss, I found the game to be incredibly fun from start to finish; even though I found myself struggling with certain puzzles, the rush I felt after completing them was fantastic. The world of Orbyss is something that stood out to me, as it didn’t rely on massive, showstopping scenery but just relied on simple beauty that could capture the attention of any gamer. One of the best parts of Orbyss is how it is friendly to all types of gamers, thanks to its accessibility and hint features that provide players with enough guidance to progress through the game, if they need it at all.”

“Orbyss is a calm, clever puzzler. If you want a low-pressure puzzler with tactile controls, smart mechanics, and a mellow atmosphere, it’s well worth your time. Play it in short sessions as a brain refresher, or binge a few chapters when you need a soothing mental workout. For something made by a solo developer, it’s an impressive achievement. A free demo is available on Steam to try the game out first.”
