Gameplay
There are six stages total, each with three puzzles (depicting varying stages of undress). You must complete all three portions of each stage to progress, and quiting at any point will cause you to lose all progress (for that stage). During later stages, you will need to flip and rotate pieces into the correct orientation (in addition to placement). After completing a stage, you will gain a variety of hints and “power-ups”, the latter being used to auto-solve small portions of puzzles. They can be used at anytime, even between playing sessions.
Yes! This is a game you can play one-handed!
Story
Samantha’s your average sporty brunette. She’s an avid tennis baller, and a swimmer too. Like Alicia and Nikki, she enjoys a bit o’ cosplay in her life. You can find her donnin’ a kitty suit at her favorite snack shack. But little do her friends know, Samantha’s a flippin’ ninja. Those with keen eyesight may see her ninja-hoppin’ roof-to-roof from the tallest buildings.
Visuals
There is no titlescreen — it’s straight to the level-select screen. I think the user-interface looks amateur and poorly made. You can adjust audio and dialogue preferences from the “Settings” menu anytime. It’s strange that dialogue settings are even an option, considering the distinct lack of text in the game. Perhaps it’ll play a part in a future update, but I think it’s just vestigial programming from a copy/paste job.
Since Switch Fire Games last release (and the one before that), they haven’t fixed any previous issues with the game.
The Goods
There are six base, static CGs, with three variants a piece (showing stages of undress). Each can be fullscreened and are very high-quality. They show Samantha in a (generally) provocative position. There is no sexual content in this game.
Verdict
I recommend this game, though you really gotta like swippy-swappies if you want to see the (not very lewd) images. As there is no gallery or “Solve it Mode” — “Solve it Mode” automatically completes any puzzle with the press of a button. You will have to re-solve every image you want to see, which I think is kind of BS.
