Runes: Puzzle, a newly released iOS game, is a revamped classic puzzler. The core gameplay involves maneuvering a red cuboid block across a map, flipping it to navigate squares and connect it to other rune-engraved blocks. Obstacles and unique map challenges add layers of complexity.
The simplicity of the core mechanic belies the game's depth. Similar to Link All, the real challenge emerges from the inventive twists introduced in each of the four worlds. With over 70 levels and five bonus challenges, Runes: Puzzle offers substantial playtime.
