TISIC IZIEB

While a good puzzle game relies mostly on the underlying mechanics to provide a good experience, a nice visual presentation and relaxing soundtrack can also work wonders.

TISIC IZIEB is a small game that presents you with several levels in which you need to push and pull furniture around a small room in order to find your way out. It is visually stunning and very well polished, but much too short.

The puzzles themselves are not very original, but this game stands out through its overall presentation. The artistic style is very pleasing, as are the particle effects and smooth animations. I also loved the color scheme, although it might not be to everyone’s taste.

Some may argue that graphics are not that important when it comes to a simple puzzle game, but you cannot deny that the end result looks simply stunning.

Each level starts with a number of objects, such as chairs, tables or couches, that need to be moved in order to clear a path to the exit. There aren’t too many places to put them, however, so you will need to plan each move in advance.

The character can either push every object around him away, or pull a certain piece of furniture to him. The controls are very simple, so you should have no problem mastering the mechanics after one or two levels.

Sadly, there are only seven levels for you to try out, and it will probably take very little time to complete them all. We would love to play an updated version that comes with more puzzles, as the base game is very promising.

On the whole, TISIC IZIEB is a well-designed puzzle game that does a lot of things well but offers a very limited amount of content. Nevertheless, you can have a bit of fun with it on a short lunch break, but you will get through the seven available levels very quickly.
