Pretty solid puzzle game. Straightforward gameplay, although not all that varied. Difficult enough without feeling frustrating. I think the hardest level only had me stumped for like ten minutes. Satisfies the puzzle solving itch and short enough to complete on a rainy day.

A game like this without an undo button is a crime... Anyway, this is a minimalistic puzzle game with a very simple concept: draw a single, continuous line to fill up the entire board. A couple of additional mechanics are introduced along the way, but it does lack variety and it gets a bit repetitive after a while. The timed levels seem to be a good incentive at first. However, they are simply irritating when you reach the harder levels, as they seem to be designed to test your speed rather than your ability to solve a puzzle. Plus, the game appears to sometimes fail to register the mouse movement if you go too fast. The absence of an undo button is particularly annoying, specially at the more difficult levels with larger boards. A single mistake and you need to redo it entirely. Overall, I somewhat enjoyed the game, although it has been a bit disappointing. This is a half recommendation, only if you're looking for something to pass the time and if you're not easily annoyed and frustrated.

With Akin, what you see is what you get. It really is just a matter of drawing lines. There are a few mechanics that make things interesting, like the crossroads tiles and the teleporters, and as you get through the puzzles you learn the odd strategy or two (I found that eliminating cul-de-sac tiles right at the very start was helpful). But it's very simple at heart and costs next to nothing, so you can't go far wrong. Well, unless you get stuck with one tile missing in one of the larger levels, that is! You can always take photos to help you keep track.
