Players will need to complete patterns, fill in all of the blank areas, or create paths between two squares of the same colour. But, with a bit of imagination and persistence, they’re easy enough to solve, even with a bit of basic guess work.Īll other puzzles that appear on the display screens don’t require any external clues to solve. Some clues can be a bit obscure to find such as a number for a combination hidden in a remote part of the level that requires you to be standing in the right spot and looking in the right direction to see it. These puzzles will require players to explore the area around them and search for clues. Throughout each level, players will also encounter other interactive puzzle elements such as codes, laser beams, and combination locks. Players will find that these display screens all revolve around coloured squares on a grid.
These unusual structures appear in every level and are normally covered in large display screens containing various puzzles to solve.
The pillar puzzle escape series#
The only reoccurring theme, as the title of the game would suggest, are a series of bright pink pillars. Starting the game, players are given very little instruction or guidance as to what is going on or why you need to escape. Aside from the difficulty of the puzzles, there is nothing to give any clear indication as to what the targeted age group is. It is for this reason that I strongly believe that the game is meant for younger players as the level designs are fairly simple and they would be more focused on the challenges than anything else. Knowing that there were only 8 levels in the game, I became more and more frustrated as I completed the levels with ease, focusing on the only mystery that I couldn’t figure out: the plot.
I found “The Pillar” to be a walk in the park and the whole game was completed in just a few hours. Older players who are experienced in puzzle games won’t find this game challenging in the slightest, and as such, will be more focused on trying to figure out what the underlying plot is and may eventually become frustrated due to the lack of challenge. Although the game is not the most difficult puzzle game out there, it will require a good memory and the ability to tap into your creative problem solving skills. “The Pillar: Puzzle Escape” is no exception to this. For me, I love the puzzle genre as I often find these challenging games a good way to take a break from high intensity games and the opportunity to do something at my own pace. These sorts of games can be a lot of fun and quite relaxing as they normally don’t require large amounts of consecutive hours to play. Many gamers will be drawn to the idea of exploring an open world and solving the various puzzles scattered throughout each level. Ideal for younger players, the challenges and puzzles are quite simple and are designed as an entry point into the “room escape” genre. Consisting of 8 levels of various lengths, players will need to tap into their creative problem solving and memory skills to complete the puzzles found scattered around the large pink pillars in each level.
“The Pillar: Puzzle Escape” takes players to a mysterious world where they must solve visual puzzles to progress further on their journey and find a way out.
