Ryuki Ishii<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>Japanese solo developer Qrostar released their new game <strong><em>Yugo Puzzle<\/em><\/strong> on PC (via Steam\/itch.io) for $6.99. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Yugo Puzzle<\/em> is a simple yet challenging puzzle game using various jelly blocks. Your objective is to connect the jelly blocks of the same color. Each block can be moved horizontally, and when two blocks of the same color are placed next to each other, they connect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Yugo Puzzle Release Trailer\" width=\"1160\" height=\"653\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/UlcUngYNptM?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><br>It certainly sounds simple, but actually solving the puzzles can be a bit tricky. For example, let\u2019s say there is a step\/bump in the center of the screen with a blue jelly on either side. You must move one of the blue jelly blocks to the other side, but they can only move horizontally, and can&#8217;t go over the step. You have to think of ways to get past the obstacle, such as using other jelly blocks to make a bridge or a foothold. Devising the order in which you move the blocks is also important.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You have to experiment with various methods through trial and error until that \u201caha\u201d moment comes. The game also features \u201cDark mode and color custom settings\u201d and an option to \u201cturn the jelly face display on\/off.\u201d<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" src=\"http:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/20211014-179030-003.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4173\" srcset=\"https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/20211014-179030-003.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/20211014-179030-003-600x338.jpg 600w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/20211014-179030-003-380x214.jpg 380w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/20211014-179030-003-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/20211014-179030-003-150x84.jpg 150w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/20211014-179030-003-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/20211014-179030-003-696x392.jpg 696w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/20211014-179030-003-1068x601.jpg 1068w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/20211014-179030-003-747x420.jpg 747w\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1280\" height=\"681\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" src=\"http:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/20211014-179030-004.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4172\" srcset=\"https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/20211014-179030-004.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/20211014-179030-004-600x319.jpg 600w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/20211014-179030-004-380x202.jpg 380w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/20211014-179030-004-768x409.jpg 768w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/20211014-179030-004-150x80.jpg 150w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/20211014-179030-004-300x160.jpg 300w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/20211014-179030-004-696x370.jpg 696w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/20211014-179030-004-1068x568.jpg 1068w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/20211014-179030-004-789x420.jpg 789w\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><br>This game was created by Qrostar, the developer behind <em>Jelly no Puzzle<\/em>.
