colored blocks in the mazes that you can move to certain spots by pressing the A button.\u00a0 When your ball is over one of those colored blocks, you can absorb that color with the X button.\u00a0 You can then transfer that color to another white block, and then move that block with the A button to hopefully move forward.\u00a0 But your ball can\u2019t be on colored blocks for them to move.\u00a0 There are nearly a hundred of these maze puzzles to solve in reky, and it\u2019s available on pretty much anything you can play a game on, but reviewed on Switch here.<\/p>\n<p>The game is pretty simple enough to understand, but the isometric viewpoint makes it hard to know where you can go.\u00a0 And it also affects the controls.\u00a0 While there is a short tutorial, they don\u2019t tell you things like highlighting blocks you can move with the R stick.\u00a0 And they don\u2019t even highlight options and selectable levels in the menu screens, so even navigating those is a chore.\u00a0 Because of all that, I lost interest in this one pretty quickly.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.gamerdad.com\/blog\/reky_screen\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"
