The world of iOS puzzlers is rich and diverse, with new releases often bringing something special and intriguing to the table. One such gem that has been revamped and rereleased is Runes: Puzzle. Originally an under-the-radar classic on iOS, this game is now back with a fresh look and feel.
In Runes: Puzzle, the core gameplay revolves around maneuvering a red cuboid block across a map. Your mission is to flip the block and navigate from square to square, connecting it to other rune-engraved blocks. The simplicity of this mechanic belies the depth of challenge presented, much like the recently released iOS puzzler Link All. Each world in Runes: Puzzle introduces unique mechanics, ensuring that players must adapt their strategies as they progress.
With four distinct worlds to explore and over 70 levels to conquer, plus five additional challenges, Runes: Puzzle offers ample content to keep players engaged. The game's visuals have been updated, and while the original developer was somewhat reserved about acknowledging this as a rerelease, the revamp certainly catches the eye.
The question of whether the gameplay remains compelling throughout is valid. The repetitive action of flipping blocks might wear on some players over time. However, the variety of mechanics introduced in each of the four worlds could well be worth exploring for those who enjoy puzzle games with a twist.
