Eloh
Review

Eloh (2018) is a puzzle game with an unusual dual focus. You may start playing to solve the puzzles, but it soon draws you in to appreciate and take time over the rhythms you create in doing so. It creates a low pressure puzzle with a meditative feel.

You play by dragging the square face pieces around to get the beats to bounce their way to the goal. Each time the pips strike environmental elements or the masks they create beat. As you progress different challenges and interactions are added, with their own rhythmic additions to the beat you create.

It's a relaxing experience that you can take your time to enjoy. In fact, even when completing a puzzle players often just let it run to enjoy the music they have created. Through its 85 levels you can take a journey into not only strategic thinking but the joy of rhythm.
