Looking for a pure, stress-free puzzle experience that won’t break the bank? Look no further than Hook: Complete Edition on Xbox.
Now available on Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S, Hook: Complete Edition has been dveloped by solo creator Maciej Targoni and published by Ultimate Games, as this bundle offers two fantastic minimalist puzzle games for the incredibly low price of just £3.29.
Hook: Complete Edition brings together the original Hook and its sequel, Hook 2, offering a serene yet stimulating challenge focused entirely on logic and observation. If you need a break from explosions and high scores, this is the perfect antidote.
Pure, Relaxing Puzzle Gameplay
The core concept, pioneered in the first Hook, is elegantly simple: remove all the interconnected hooks from the board by figuring out the correct sequence. There are no timers ticking down, no scores to chase, and absolutely no distracting ads.
It’s just you, the puzzle, and a calming ambient soundtrack designed to help you unwind and focus. Intuitive mechanics make it easy to pick up, but the later puzzles will definitely require some thought.
Hook kind of reminds us of SiNKR, so if you played that game, this may well suit.
Two Dimensions of Calm (and Challenge)
This Complete Edition includes:
- Hook: The original 2D minimalist puzzle game that started it all. Master the basic mechanics and enjoy the zen-like flow.
- Hook 2: Expands the challenge by adding an “extra dimension” – introducing new mechanics and more complex, potentially 3D-inspired layouts, while crucially maintaining the same meditative, text-free, distraction-free experience.
The collection also boasts modern conveniences like Dark Mode for comfortable late-night puzzling and Cloud Saves to keep your progress synced.
A Notable Departure for Ultimate Games
While publisher Ultimate Games is often associated with simulators like Animal Shelter Simulator or chaotic fun like CarGo!, Hook: Complete Edition represents a dive into the calmer waters of minimalist puzzling.
It’s a welcome addition to their diverse catalogue, offering something distinctly different – a pure, simple, and satisfying mental workout developed by a single person.
