You won't play a more satisfying (and quietly infuriating) puzzle game this year.
A Little to the Left Score Details DT Recommended Product “A Little to the Left might be this year's most plesant game thanks to its cathartic organization puzzles.” Pros Cons As I organized digital shelves in A Little to the Left, my cat took the distraction as an opportunity. Suddenly, I heard the familiar sound of plastic clacking to the floor.
Rules of the house In A Little to the Left, players complete five chapters worth of micro-puzzles that entirely range in complexity. Early on, it’s as simple as tilting a picture frame so that it’s perfectly aligned. Later, I’ll have to arrange a box full of crystals by their patterns. Its strength is that it’s mostly drawing on real-life scenarios and good housekeeping instincts.
Its key strength as a puzzle game comes down to its constantly shifting rules. Generally, a game like this is built around a firm set of laws that are taught to players as they progress. Freshly Frosted, for instance, always asks players to create a donut and get it to an endpoint by building a conveyor belt. It builds on that idea by adding new wrinkles that complicate the goal, but the general objective is the same.
I appreciate the idea of a puzzle game where every answer feels within my reach. I never hit a total roadblock where I just couldn’t figure out how to progress. Instead, I could just focus on the tactile joys of dragging objects to their right place.
