N+ Micro Review: Neves (DS)

What is it?

A new puzzle game based on Tangrams. The idea is to make different shapes using a set number of pieces.

How does it play?

The stylus control is perfect, and you'll pick it up in no time. Although some of the puzzles are fairly easy, the game quickly becomes addictive, and with over 500 puzzles to complete, it's sure to keep you occupied for quite some time. There's no online mode, but you can play against the clock, or against others via local Wi-Fi. It's a great little game, and a decent addition to the DS puzzle library. If you like laid-back logic puzzles that make you think, this one's for you.

This game does look like it could be fun. I've always enjoyed those piece puzzle games.
If this game is budget price enough I might grab this. If they had level editor on this it could of been the new Polarium

Yeah, the ability to create and share puzzles would have been great (although they've probably covered all permutations of the pieces in the game itself!)
