Flux Caves Demo

Puzzle games are meant to train the mind and keep it busy without building up tension, like you would in n action game where split-second decisions make or break a game. Flux Caves takes that principle and takes it to a whole other level, acting as more of a casual experience than a game, providing the ultimate sense of accomplishment mixed in with relaxation.

The first thing that will stun you about the game is the visual style that is absolutely gorgeous, boasting high-quality 3D graphics coupled with an atmospheric soundtrack that will make you relax just by closing your eyes and listening. The game mixes modern neon-themed visuals with very realistic outdoor landscapes that are extremely well rendered. Liquid reflections are excellent, the lighting and lens flare are well made and the physics are extremely realistic.

Within Flux Caves, you are presented with an incomplete network of pipes through which spheres pass very quickly. unfortunately, the network is missing pieces and it is your job to move them around until you've filled in all the missing links. One thing worth noting is that only after you've finished the puzzle and a certain amount of spheres reach the checkpoint will the next level become available. The game doesn't feature a timer at all, so you can take your time solving all of them especially since the difficulty levels ramps up rather quickly, so you will actually need all the time in the world. The great thing is that no mater how difficult the levels become, you will never feel pressured to complete them, since the music and scenery helps loosen the tension.

If you love relaxing yourself in a beautiful environment, both indoors and outdoors while still keeping your mind busy with intricate puzzles, then you'll enjoy every moment when playing Flux Caves.
