\"\"<\/a>I\u2019m not really sure why this game is called She Remembered Caterpillars.\u00a0 Before each level there is some text for some kind of story, but it\u2019s not really necessary or related to the gameplay and just makes things more artsy and pretentious than what it needs to be.\u00a0 For all I\u2019m concerned, the story is that you\u2019re trying to make these little colored critters get to certain spots on a maze filled with colored bridges and whatnot, and when all the little guys are where they need to be, they\u2019ll sprout propellers and fly away, moving you on to the next level.\u00a0 This puzzle game is available to download on Switch and PC, but reviewed on Switch here.<\/p>\n

Each level is a little maze, and you have critters that you can control.\u00a0 Get each one to a white spot on the maze to finish the level.\u00a0 Each little dude is a different color, and you can switch between them with the shoulder buttons.\u00a0 Move them around with the d-pad.\u00a0 The colored critters can cross bridges of the same color, but they can\u2019t cross past little tentacle gates of the same color.\u00a0 If two different colored critters are next to each other, you can press a button to make them merge together to form a new color.\u00a0 So if a blue and red guy are merged to form a purple one, it can pass through both red and blue and purple bridges.\u00a0 Handy when you need to get two critters across obstacles.\u00a0 Press the button again to make them split into two different colors.<\/p>\n

On the pause screen you can view the controls and restart a level, which is handy since they don\u2019t explain the controls very well during the game.\u00a0 Another nice feature that they don\u2019t explain very well is that the colors of the critters also have shapes that correspond to bridges and such, which is also handy for color blind folks. \u00a0You can also use the touch screen to play if you have the Switch in handheld mode. \u00a0I only wish the game had a hint feature because not even a dozen levels in and it gets pretty darn hard.\u00a0 Otherwise it\u2019s still a nice little game for puzzle fans.<\/p>\n

Kid Factor:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Nothing violent or objectionable here.\u00a0 Reading skill is helpful for some of the text, and younger gamers may find the puzzles too difficult.\u00a0 She Remembered Caterpillars is rated E for Everyone.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
