Neon Cipher Review: Moss Meets Intelligent Qube In This Puzzle Platformer
- Neon Cipher is a blend of VR classic Moss and PlayStation relics like Intelligent Qube and Echochrome, offering a brain-teasing puzzle-platformer experience.
- The game follows a hacker who is recruited by Captain S. Ren to hack XE_Corp's digital archive, featuring light plot elements to set the tone of the game world.
- With simple and effective mechanics, players navigate through fifty puzzle stages to collect keys, using analog sticks and buttons for control in a third-person perspective.
- Players manipulate objects and platforms in the game space using hands-on controls, with blue movable platforms and automated red platforms adding complexity to the puzzles.
- As the game progresses, puzzles become more challenging with interactive puzzle objects and enemy encounters that require strategy to evade or counterattack.
- The game's controls are tight and platforming is satisfying, offering an immersive gameplay experience without cumbersome mechanics or fall damage.
- Combat in Neon Cipher involves simple melee attacks and stunning enemies, although combat mechanics lack complexity and may not be engaging for all players.
- The game's puzzles could be more challenging, and the combat could be more demanding, but overall, the gameplay can be meditative and calm.
- Neon Cipher offers a main campaign of fifty puzzles and a level creator for custom mazes, with potential future updates to allow for sharing custom maps.
- As a debut from developer eXomorph Games, Neon Cipher is an enjoyable puzzle-platformer that may not match the depth of some titles but showcases interesting gameplay ideas.
