Reviews for "The Magic Pipes!"

wtf was the dragon

It was a fun game, but...

A solid game, but I had to break the rules on several levels to complete it. What I mean is, the stress on the structure was so great, the piles simply would not connect the way they needed to, even using the walkthrough as a model. I had to find ways to get pipes to clip though other pipes to get them to connect.
Some of the puzzles were legitimately challenging, but the frustration of having to actually contort the pieces really ruined the entire last level.

boring

challenging but not much fun

By physics, do you mean annoying spin effect?

The only physics I see are the physics controlling how the pipe spins in regards to where you drag your mouse, while it introduces a new concept (in a sense) it isn't all that ground breaking or different. In fact the physics (called a gravity effect in some games) isn't all that new, and it is a bit annoying at times. The game itself is solid and the puzzles interesting, though the atmosphere/mood portrayed by the music and images can be questionable to some (thank you for a mute button). The pipe puzzle and the physics effect have been done before which is the main reasoning for the score.

My fix with this game...

Is that on occasion, the physics of the game make the solutions that are given in the walkthrough impossible to achieve for whatever reason. It took me forever to finish the last two levls of the game, even with the walkthrough. Also, the rotation of the pipes as you're moving them along does get kind of awkward at times and makes things more difficult than it really should.

Otherwise, it's a pretty interesting game.
