Starting off somewhat slow, Shardlight definitely builds up intrigue levels as the early stages of the journey develop, to the point where there is a strong desire for more. Some of the puzzles are a little more obtuse than others, and there can be a bit too much back-tracking early on, but the balance so far is just about right, preventing frustration from creeping in. There are no hints included, so some gamers may find that to be disappointing, but with the areas included being so close together, it is not too tough to revisit places to find things that were initially missed. All-in-all, this is shaping up to be another strong addition to WadjetEye Games' line-up.
The retro-inspired post-apocalyptic adventure game Shardlight will be coming out for iPhone and iPad in early March.
