Shift 2: puzzle game for Sunday evening

Shift 2

Sundays are great days to sit down and relax. If you like to relax with Sudoku or other kind of puzzle game I have one recommendation for you. It is small scrolling puzzle-webgame. Sounds terrible? But, trust me, it is great.

This is the escape type of puzzle game: you control some kind of player and your objective is go through the doors. There is some standard mechanics: keys, spine things and so, but the main feature, that makes this game unique is ability to scroll the screen. You just press the shift key, screen scroll to 90° and walls became to free spaces and free space became to the wall. Simply, little bit confusing and sometimes become to headaches, but it is original feature and make this game fresh and challenging.

Pros:

  • casual game play: no rush, no timer
  • relaxed levels: well balanced levels prohibit stuck in levels. You can finish most levels in try&error mode

Cons:

  • some game-design glitches: not very often, but waiting to some scripted thing in second - tutorial level irritated me.
  • some technical glitches: couple of levels are CPU intensive and it lags sometimes occurred on my PC. Well, my PC isn’t so powerful (Athlon XP 1800+ and 768 MB Ram), but it is enough to run Battlefield 2 smoothly and it is not enough for this small flash game.
