We’re not sure how Nikoli W can keep churning out the puzzle hits, but it seems as if there is no end to the plethora of Puzzle by Nikoli W titles releasing into the market. The latest is that of Puzzle by Nikoli W Yajilin.
Puzzle by Nikoli W Yajilin is the lates in an ever-increasingly long line of puzzle titles to have hit Xbox over the last few months. It started with the familiar in Sudoku and Akari, before working through the weird of Shikaku and Masyu. We’ve now reached Yajilin – whatever a Yajilin is.
Priced at a mere £3.99, Puzzle by Nikoli W Yajilin should well fully the usual series vibes. Don’t expect too much fun to be included here, instead slapped with a host of puzzle boards and tasked with their completion. All very much prim and proper, there will be no explosions of joy as you prove yourself as the champion Puzzle by Nikoli W Yajilin maker.
That’s very much what we want from a Puzzle by Nikoli W game though. We’ve very much enjoyed taking in the tests of the mind that they are able to produce, expecting to be equally well delivered here. Of course, we’ll let you know how it goes in full review.
What is a Yajilin?
But we’ve got this far and we still don’t really know what a Yajilin is. Thankfully it seems fairly simple to understand – a puzzler in which you need to draw lines and paint cells. What more do you want in life?
More you say? Well, Puzzle by Nikoli W Yajilin can provide that too. See, there are rules to abide by; for instance, lines can’t pass through numbered cells, but that line needs a start and end point. Easy? Maybe. Complex? Definitely.
If you have played any of the previous Nikoli W games, then Puzzle by Nikoli W Yajilin should probably be next on your hit list. The low price point certainly allows for a punt and purchase from the Xbox Store. From there you’ll find this one playable on Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S.
Game Description:
Draw lines through the centers of cells to make a loop, and paint cells black in this original Nikoli puzzle. It’s immensely satisfying to see how the lines and black cells all come together to form a solution, and figuring out how to draw the loop isn’t as easy as it might seem.
