Experience the hacker's side of cyberpunk in Cyber Sentinel! This design-based puzzle game features a complete visual programming kit for designing your own viruses. Disclaimer: I got a free review key for this game. I only share games on my channel that I personally enjoyed playing, but disclaimers are important nonetheless. In this programming puzzle game you make your block(s) move through the level by adding movement direction blocks to the program grid, and connecting them with lines. The thing that makes this really neat is that the tiles in the game world can have different colours, which your block can interact with! You can decide to go in different directions based on the floor colour, or you can change the colour of the floor itself. Add in hostile program cubes, laser grids, teleporters and buttons, and the game can get complicated rather quickly. Did I mention you can have multiple blocks going at the same time? The game features 5 chapters with 9 levels, each featuring a comic book style introduction that tells you the story of why you are solving puzzles. The first puzzles of Chapter 1 act as a tutorial, after which you have to solve the puzzles by yourself. The first chapter is relatively easy, but the difficulty does ramp up to a nice and interesting level. Let me know how you liked Chapter 2, puzzle 8, which took me a while to get to a solution, and then more time to try and optimise it. Cyber Sentinel has a built-in level editor, and it features community-built levels in the main menu. It is very easy to make your own level and publish it from within the game. Similarly, you can share solutions for the game's levels as well as load other people's solutions from within each puzzle. This is a neat feature that I haven't seen in other puzzle games yet. If you have been stuck on a puzzle for hours, it's nice to have a community solution you can look at to see how it's done! Cyber Sentinel was made by Mind Helix, a small independent studio from Poland. I played it on Windows and it worked without issues. According to the press kit and Steam page it's also available on Mac and Linux. You can buy it from a variety of platforms, for $9.99 or its local equivalent. Game website:
