Review: Enigmo
Sep. 2
Enigmo, which was first released for Mac OS X in 2003, is one of the first puzzle games to make its way to the iPhone. Throughout the 50 game levels, the objective is to move various forms of liquid from point A to point B in the quickest time possible. Players use items to change the direction of falling water, oil and lava drops. The level ends when 40 drops move into the proper container. Touch controls are used to zoom in and out and for positioning pieces throughout the levels.
If 50 levels aren't enough to satisfy, there are numerous additional downloadable levels available for no additional charge.
This title is not for the casual puzzle genre fan. Each level will take a while to figure out and it will be tempting to check YouTube for the solutions, especially in later levels. However, it makes it all the more satisfying when discovering the solution.
The 3-D levels work perfectly on the iPhone with simple but crisp visuals. Enigmo is unique to the app store and a refreshing puzzler that does not involve block movement found in so many of the available puzzlers out there.
Pros: Lots of content for the price, responsive controls
Cons: Difficult, no hints or tutorials
