Keep doing this until there’s no more shapes left to match, at which point you win the round if the whole screen matches the color of the frame. Pushing matching shapes causes the entire screen (except whatever shapes are different colors) to become just that color. There’s a colored frame around the playfield, and various colored shapes. Like Blok Drop U, you’ve probably played games like this. But hey, they don’t want to let all 47 Wii U owners down, and props to the guys at Cypronia for their consideration. It is coming to 3DS as well in June, which is really the only Nintendo platform it should be on. Speaking of which, Color Zen released this week on Wii U.
#COLOR ZEN NOT WORKING PORTABLE#
It just makes more sense as a portable game. Oh, and to address the elephant in the room, YES, it’s on the wrong platform. It’s also the cheapest game in the entire Wii U eShop at $1.99, and I do recommend it. Besides the short length and the lack of curve, Blok Drop U is a perfectly fine game. I don’t know how it built the inertia to roll, but that screwed me over once or twice. Like having the target block fall straight down, without sloping, landing flush on a platform, and then rolling. My only other complaint is sometimes the physics seem to screw you over.
#COLOR ZEN NOT WORKING FULL#
With the possible exception of the saw levels, Blok Drop U is about as stimulating as a warehouse full of straw.īlok Drop U was developed by RCMADIAX ($1.99 said the developer is paying for the word “Block” in monthly installments in the making of this review) I know that minimalism is an established style, especially on the indie scene, but games are a visual medium and gamers are looking for stimuli. Maybe that wasn’t their actual intent, but it feels that way. These visuals almost feel like they’re giving up on attracting non-puzzle fans. I think the developers failed themselves as commercial artists here. I certainly wasn’t bored by it, but I’m wired to enjoy puzzle games. Blok Drop U’s visuals are so dull that it becomes almost tiring. But, I kind of have to talk about it here. I’m very much a “gameplay is King” type of chick. At Indie Gamer Chick, I almost never talk about graphics. I guess I enjoyed Blok Drop U, but I have a few nits to pick. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: Portal has creatively bankrupted an entire generation. Sadly, everyone wants a sweet, sweet taste of that Portal-style minimalism pie. Anything would have been better than nothing.
#COLOR ZEN NOT WORKING FREE#
And the best part is, it is entirely free to play on your phone or Nintendo Switch.The developers really should have come up with some kind of theme, ANY THEME, for Blok Drop U. With 120 levels, and some having more than one way to solve, it will keep you occupied long enough to melt away a sizable amount of stress. You can play it on IOS, Android, Nintendo 3DS, Wii U, Playstation 4, a web browser, or my personal choice, a Nintendo Switch.
While the game was originally released in 2013, it has been updated and rereleased on new consoles. Black shapes erase a shape and white shapes absorb every color.
As you get farther in the game, new mechanics are introduced. The goal is to combine the shapes until the only color remaining is the one matching the border. The level starts with a screen covered in shapes of different colors and a solid border around the screen. This abstract puzzle game presents a unique challenge with each level. If you enjoy comforting music, satisfying shapes and bright colors, Color Zen is a perfect choice. Puzzle games are great options because they provide a fun distraction as well as a challenge to keep you occupied. During times of high stress, it’s a good idea to find fun ways to cope.
