RoGlass

I like this puzzle game a lot, at 7.2 hours I've completed it but I'm sure I'll come back for the challenge modes. Basically, you place tiles to score points, and scoring points, or placing certain combinations of tiles, opens up the playing area, as well as gives you more tiles and different types, etc. The game is fairly linear, with 99 achievements to get, each one of which opens up the game further. It's challenging without ever being too frustrating, I had a ton of fun! Also, it's made by a solo indie dev who has quite a story to tell of it's difficult release if you want to read it on Reddit. Support original puzzle games and talented devs!

There's no timer or other pressure. As you go you unlock new tiles that interact in new ways, or in some cases expand what tiles do. Fun little puzzle game that you can play in short stints.

I got way into this tile-placing puzzle game. As other reviewers have said, the achievement sequence teaches you how to play the game, in a way that's more rewarding and momentum-building than a bog-standard tutorial would have been. The icon art and music blend in seamlessly. I found the main game to be just right for me in terms of difficulty. I solved one of the challenge modes, but the others seemed too fiddly, even for me. I suspect it takes a better strategist than I to win all the challenges without either hints or an unlimited time supply. Nonetheless, I enjoyed my time in the world of RoGlass quite a bit. To anyone who likes roguelites, broughlikes, or puzzle games in general, I would recommend that you check out the demo and see if this game hooks you like it did me. Update: Some days after uninstalling this game, I reinstalled it and played to 100% over the next several days. The challenges were indeed fiddly, but they grew more manageable over time.
