Slitherlink: Loop the Snake App Reviews

You guys need to make it more obvious how to give you money. Been playing your games for a few days and my sentiment is "shut up and take my money"! These are great. Not that I mind a lot free content, but I wouldnt mind paying for it.

I love conceptis games. This one is no exception. If you like thinking puzzles, youll like it too. The touch controls can get tight with the advanced puzzles on the iPad mini, but its ok. Wish the control was slightly simpler. Dont need the (x out) state on line segments at all. Just on and off would be perfect. Conceptis always does this part right... The puzzle starts off easy with 3minute puzzles and graduates very smoothly to 40 minute puzzles. The look and feel are very pleasing and clean and gentle on the eyes. Also, the puzzles can be solved w/o guesswork, but sometimes I cant see the next step and want to play a guess move. It would be nice if I could use a different color or something, so I can distinguish my guesses from my sure moves. Also its frustrating when I give up and want to see the solution to help solve a section of a large puzzle. Looking at the solution requires me to start over on the puzzle. I dont want to start over and I find this not enjoyable. Id greatly prefer to toggle the solution.

Better than version in puzzlemaniak called "loopy" Lots of different sizes and levels. Games beyond free ones are at least 4 cents each. Seems fair.

I love this game and used to play it in puzzle magazines long before there were ipads and apps. Its much more enjoyable playing on my tablet device because I no longer wear through the paper with my constant erasing. So thank you, Conceptis for this electronic version. A few suggestions for the next release: 1. I do not want the game to automatically put an "x" on a path that I erase. 2. Is there a way to save the game at a certain point, rather than constant saving, so that I can restore to a certain point (and not have to completely start over) 3. Could we have a choice of multiple colors for our paths, so I can discriminate between paths Im absolutely certain about, and paths Im just trying out?

Its a great, entertaining puzzle game.

Lots of free puzzles, works great, something different - not too easy!

This game used to appear on variety puzzle books when I was a kid. I liked it then and like it now. Im on my second time through the app. Its very challenging and doesnt get old. I agree that it would be nice to have the option of a different color for certain pathways and trial pathways. However, the game is still an excellent mind bender.

Although Im working on the "easy" puzzles, some are still challenging. Glad these arent too simple- nice job, guys!

I enjoy the game a lot. I just wish there were also free larger puzzles available. The zoom option also could be improved.

Buyer beware: you could end up spending thousands of dollars on Conceptis applications. Read on for details. This review includes the eight applications published on the iOS app store by Conceptis (Nurikabe, Tic-Tac-Logic, Link-a-Pix, Pic-a-Pix, Hashi, Sudoku, Slitherlink, and Fill-a-Pix). First off, their applications are well built and include many fun puzzles. I especially enjoy the weekly free puzzles, though it is a little irritating that they go away after four weeks and are not saved. However, the biggest problem—and Ive noticed this mentioned in some reviews for these applications—is the high cost of puzzles. They are well done and fun, but when the costs are summed, they are rather high. There are 31,380 puzzles total (as of today) across the eight applications, ranging from very simple to rather complex, which would cost you a total of $3511 (not including tax). This is on par with the cost of licenses for professional-level applications. I think its quite disingenuous of Conceptis to charge so much for the puzzles. When averaged (across all 8 applications for the entire range of puzzles), they total just over 15 cents/puzzle. That may not sound like much, but it can add up quickly. To contrast this, LogicPicColor, an iOS app like Pic-a-pix, has 16,778 total puzzles which cost a total of $30 (plus tax), averaging at a third of a cent per puzzle, about 50 times less than those from Conceptis. Now, LogicPicColor has some shortcomings and is not nearly as well done as the apps from Conceptis. Nonetheless, I dont believe Conceptiss apps and puzzles are worth that much of a premium, and will therefore be satisfied to look elsewhere. Perhaps someday theyll offer sales or discounts for puzzle bundles—ever since the apps were released, Ive hoped for this, to no avail.
