Community Insight:
Its just fun. This game has captivated us. We can play for a minute or an hour. This is different, not easy but not so hard so far that we have put it down and moved on. As someone with ADD, we think it is good for focus and helps us reorient when we are overwhelmed.
This is one of our favorite games after Cosmic Express and The Sequence].
Recently reinstalled it, and its as good as we remember. Thanks for such a great game.
Would love some more puzzles to solve!! Great game! Wish more people played to challenge our score.
It took us a few puzzles to get into it, but it quickly became one of our very favorite puzzle games. Dynamic! Original! Nice to be able to create other solutions to levels already solved one way.
A FUN and interesting puzzle game that gets you thinking. Well done.
Great concept. Kept our attention pretty long.
This is probably the best puzzler we've played so far. The puzzles are challenging but get you to think. Any fan of Spacechem would definitely like this game.
This game forces you to break down the problem into small solvable pieces. Excellent educational benefits and lots of fun.
We really enjoy watching our kids play this game. We feel it is a very good game to teach children how to problem solve. We would recommend this game to grades 6 plus.
It takes a lot for a game to hold our attention beyond playing a half-dozen times or so, and many puzzle games fizzle out or just don't have a lot of imagination. Perfect paths is simple at its core, but the pieces can be arranged in a huge array of possibilities, creating a fun & engaging challenge that gets progressively harder as you get better. Try it! You'll love it.
We consider ourselves a connoisseur of iPhone puzzle games; specifically, the kind of puzzles that don't require speedy reflexes but instead demand deep thought. Perfect Paths is an excellent example of this genre. At first glance, it seems trivial; puzzles consist of finding paths which will lead colored pieces to their destinations on a grid. However, you have to be able to visualize how multiple pieces will move in the future so the pieces don't collide with each other (unless you want them to!). Solving a puzzle actually feels more like writing a computer program than just playing a game, so programmers will probably enjoy this game. The graphics etc. Are simple but first-rate, and overall the game is a treat for serious puzzle enthusiasts. Just be warned: some of the puzzles are really challenging.
Our favorite since Monument Valley and much longer. That's a big bonus.
This is challenging and fun. Happy we picked it up.
If you're a programmer or coder you will love this. It has EVERYTHING.
A real challenge, which is a great surprise in a mobile game.
Really like it, but be warned it's hard to put down. Great problem solving game.
This game had us puzzled, but in a good way. One of the most original games we have seen in a long time.
We have been enjoying this game for months as we work through the challenges in our spare time. Great problem solving game. Quite innovative and unique.
This is a fantastic time passer. We just sat in a line at a department store for about an hour. With this game, the time flew by. This and chess are the only games we have loaded on our phone and tablet. One problem, we can't listen to Spotify and play this game at the same time. It's like the game takes over the WiFi.
Great problem solving game! The only thing that might have been useful would have been something about the step-at-a-time buttons in the tutorial, but it wasn't too long before we figured it out. You can also swipe the direction arrows at the bottom of the screen to move forward and backward through your steps. Very challenged by the first new Sextan level.
This is a fantastic app. It's a puzzle game that gets progressively more difficult. Excellent brain builder that can be help convert any mundane moment (traffic, waiting in line, etc) into a good time.
Got stuck and almost gave up. But then we came back and solved it and now we can't stop. Awesome job.
Best puzzle game since Flow! Love this.
Great way to relax and kill some time. We only have 2 games on our iPad this is our favorite. Good job.
This game is challenging enough not to be easy but not so challenge you want to give up.
We got this as a Starbucks freebie & wasn't expecting much, but this app is amazing in its simplicity & originality. After the 3rd or 4th scenario we were hooked.
This game is mind challenging, and fun.
Best game of this type (puzzle) that we have come across this year! We like the way that the complexity builds.
This game is perfect for our 10-15 minutes breaks. We can move some squares and come back 5 hours later and start where Ieft off.
Hard, but doable. Not one to play in line at grocery store.
We can't stop playing. We have only found one level that we couldn't beat. We think it's unsolvable. Good luck everyone. The game is addicting. We hope it helps build our mind.
Very clever puzzles. Awesome game.
Good combo of rhythm solving and thought provoking serious challenges.
A brilliant procedural puzzle game. We would like the tutorials to be a little more demonstrative.
We don't totally understand all the rules yet, but we are hooked! Good for spatial awareness and problem solving.
Love this game in the way it builds progressively difficult puzzles that force you to innovate a bit more at each level.
Awesome visual riddle that makes us very mad and relaxed. LOL.
We wasn't sure when we first started; took a while to catch on, but 15 levels later we can't put it down! Incredibly challenging and fun brain teaser game.
It may be good if we had a spare brain for this app, had smoke and sparks coming out our ears after the fourth round even with instructions had a hard and addicting time good luck to everyone.
Love this game – it really makes you think. We thought directions were fine, you just have to do some experimenting.
Best brain game we've played in a long time! Challenging. Fun. Unique. We love it.
Normally we blow through puzzle games, but this one is actually challenging us a bit.
We love this game for making us think. This game challenges while not being too challenging.
This is a fun and challenging game.
A great waypoint puzzle game. Requires thinking! (0.0).
This is a fun game that stimulates your mind.
A lot of cool puzzles for free. Very well made interface and simple, cool graphics.
This game hits the sweet spot for us- challenging without being so difficult that we give up. So fun.
Neat game. Simple to understand. Difficult to master.
