Beautifully recorded sounds accompany your actions. 7aa9394dea Title: StrataGenre: Casual, Indie, StrategyDeveloper:GraveckPublisher:GLITCHRelease Date: 29 May, 2014 Strata Download Mega Strata reminds me of puzzle games like Flow and Picross. Like those games, Strata has a simple, grid based ruleset whose depth comes from the many variations of the playing board. The simplicity of the game's interface helps keep the focus on what is important. No wading through unnecessary time-wasting elements searching for the game or fun play. Each little action results in relaxed musical riffs which set a peaceful tone. This, coupled with subtle animations gives proper weight to each click, making the game have a sense of physicality which grounds the player in the interaction. And Strata makes fanatastic use of color. For that reason alone, give it a shot.. A nice zen puzzler. You against your own intellect. Tranquil and meditative; provides food for thought. No rage-quits here. Well worth the money.. This is one of those games that is extremely simple in their concept, but deviously hard to beat. The visuals are comfortable to the eyes and the easy-listening, laidback music further draws you in.If you like to exercise your visual imaging then Strata is a must-have. The game is a bit buggy at times, e.g. it sometimes freezes when you move around menus or levels too quickly and some achievements pop-up when you haven't rightfully earned them yet. This is however compensated by the low price and enjoyable gameplay.. Don't be fooled by how simple Strata looks.The game walks you through how to play it pretty quickly and effectively, but other than that, you are on your own. The rest of the game is just you, your brain, and the piano keys tinkling blissfully in your ears.Any casual player can pick it up and jump right in, and any puzzle\/indie lover can dedicate hours to solve and complete each set and wave of puzzles down to straight perfection, like me. For $3.99, this game gives you a crapton to work with.My only complaint is that after playing the 5x5 puzzles for awhile you will start to feel it, and I mean feel some sort of brain exhaustion. Don't marathon this for 12 hours on end. Especially as some of the levels can have god-awful colour schemes, you don't want to risk eye strain or your sanity just to perfect a few puzzles.That being said, 8\/10 would let wreck my brain again.. Did you love Lyne? If so, this is the BOMB.COM for you!Strata isn't fast-paced. Or action-filled. Or multiplayer. Strata is relaxing. Calm. Fun. It's a very simple game: draw lines on a grid, so every square is covered by the same coloured line. But here's the twist: the colour needs to be the same on the top. What starts off as a simple, easy game becomes a mind-boggling addictive puzzle. I could spend the same amount of time into Counter-Strike as i could with Strata. It's that good. Soon, you'll be matching up lines everywhere!But gameplay isn't the only thing. Strata is beautifully designed, with clean, neat, paper-like formatting that is both relaxing to the eye and wonderfully complex. In addition, the sound is well done. Timing right with the game, it eases you straight into a position of comfortability and easy-mindedness.Beware! This game most certainly isn't Borderlands 2, but it is well worth 3.99 (2.99 on sale), for a relaxing puzzle game that you can play for hours on end. Just remember to take breaks once in a while.. Simple yet challenging problem solving game. Really smooth, but still would have liked to see some options. Especially a way to adjust sound and music.Great way to spend some overtime you have.. Strata could be so frustrating--except it's so careful not to be. I mulled over purchasing Strata for a while. At first I was worried I wasn't smart enough to get too into this game, but it's very forgiving and the sound effects are calming, almost meditative. I have lovely moments of insight, where everything just clicks and the ribbons weave so perfectly, and I have times where I ponder and redo... and occasionally look at the hints.Don't worry about difficulty: it draws you in slowly and gently and gives you all the time you need.. beautiful and relaxing game...
