User reviews & Ratings

Diamo XL is a super simple game about moving an object along lines to complete diamond while avoiding objects coming at you. That is all there is to the game, but there is some addicting charm about it. I honestly enjoyed my time playing through and getting further. There is a very arcade feel to the game. Although I don't think this is a game you can play for tens of hours, it is fun enough to play for a few hours. At the relatively cheap price level, I'd give it a shot.

Diamo XL, developed and published by Adamvision Studios, is a compact arcade experience that demonstrates how little a game needs in order to be immediately compelling. At first glance, it resembles a minimalist rhythm of lines, shapes, and movement, but beneath its simplicity lies a game built entirely around tension, reflex, and momentum. The player controls a small diamond-shaped cursor traveling around the perimeter of a larger diamond, attempting to complete laps and fill its four sectors while avoiding a constant barrage of incoming hazards. There is no story, tutorial sequence, or narrative context—just instant gameplay clarity and the challenge of surviving long enough to push your score a little higher. That immediacy gives the game a nostalgic arcade purity, the kind that encourages a quick play session that often becomes half an hour without noticing. The magic of Diamo XL comes from the precision of its movement and the escalating rhythm of its obstacle design. In the early seconds of a run, the pace feels manageable, even relaxing, as you glide along clean geometric lines. Then the game begins sending projectiles and moving barriers from different directions, forcing rapid directional switches and predictive thinking. Because your movement is restricted to the diamond’s outline, decisions hinge on whether to continue forward, reverse direction, or quickly switch corners to avoid collision. This constraint is what gives the game its identity: it transforms what should be a simple dodge-and-survive loop into a dance of timing and spatial awareness. The faster you react, the more confident you become—until you inevitably slip, crash, and find yourself immediately restarting. Visually, the game embraces minimalism with surprising style. The stark dark background contrasts sharply with neon shapes, glowing obstacles, and crisp movement trails. The result is an uncluttered play space where clarity matters more than decoration. Animations are swift, snappy, and satisfying, particularly when completing segments of the diamond. The audio follows the same philosophy—short chimes, subtle whooshes, rhythmic beats—supporting the tense flow without overwhelming it. The audiovisual presentation is focused not on spectacle, but on reinforcing the tight feedback loop between player input and on-screen response. Controls are intentionally simple—usually just directional input—but they must feel exact for the game to work, and fortunately they do. Whether using keyboard, controller, or handheld controls, movement responds instantly, which is essential when milliseconds separate survival and failure. Runs are short by design, which makes mistakes feel educational rather than punishing. The game is structured to be replayed dozens, even hundreds of times, always with the hope that this will be the run where everything clicks and the score climbs further than before. That score-chasing mentality is where the game finds longevity, strengthened by Steam achievements and leaderboard integration that transform personal success into community comparison. Because Diamo XL is built around repetition and pursuit of mastery, its depth comes not from new levels or evolving mechanics, but from refinement of skill. For some players, this is the appeal—every retry feels like a chance to improve, and the absence of clutter means no barrier to jumping in. For others, the game may feel too thin after the initial rush. There are no story modes, campaign structures, or major unlock systems to extend the experience, and once a player has reached their limit, the game may naturally fall out of rotation. But its low price point, tiny file size, and effortless pick-up-and-play structure make it well suited to short gaming bursts, commutes, or moments between longer sessions of other titles. Diamo XL stands out not because it tries to innovate on every front, but because it commits fully to a narrow design goal and executes it cleanly. It captures the arcade spirit of immediacy, failure, improvement, and repetition without drowning the player in systems or noise. For players who enjoy reflex-driven challenges, minimalist score chasers, or games like Super Hexagon, Velocibox, or traditional arcade cabinets, it offers an addictive and rewarding loop. For those seeking narrative progression, visual variety, or mechanical complexity, its appeal may be brief. But within its genre and price range, Diamo XL succeeds with confidence—an elegant, tightly constructed challenge that proves small games can still leave a lasting impression. Rating: 9/10

Along with Ding Dong XL, this is one of the better games this developer has to offer. The game has simple mechanics, by pressing the direction buttons on the keyboard, you have to make diamonds and acquire moving orbs to score points. but dont be fooled, its hard to get a really good result. Also, check the system requirements for many games of this dev, they are quite funny.

This game is a great way to unwind on Linux, without feeling like you're sacrificing too much time. You'll find yourself engrossed in trying to collect as many light circles as possible while avoiding obstacles on a familiar six-lane grid. The gameplay is straightforward: control different rectangles with unique handling and speed settings, each adding its own twist to the experience. It's surprisingly fun! What I enjoy most about this game is that the map remains consistent throughout, which makes it easy to get into a rhythm and keep playing without feeling overwhelmed or performing chores that you could be doing in your everyday life life. Overall, I think this game is worth checking out if you're looking for some light entertainment on your Linux machine.
