    The back of the box proclaims “A puzzling experience for a relaxing life” , but this is anything but relaxing, and I wouldn’t recommend giving this to an elderly relative. I am a patient guy but the extreme repetitiveness will annoy even the most enthusiastic puzzle fans. What should have been an addictive quest becomes tedium personified and one I can only recommend this if you plan on solving a couple of puzzles in a sitting. If you were stuck on a desert island...

    While the game definitely has some bad features, the terribly annoying music can be turned down (or off altogether) and bad backgrounds and fonts are only suffered for a minimal time. What matters here is the actual game content and that’s pretty good. Boasting well into 400 puzzles, shallow multiplayer and a few extra modes, this game isn’t anything to get excited about but if you’re looking for an extra puzzle game to add to your collection, you could do plenty...

    Neves isn't much of a looker but it is an addictive puzzle game that will waste away a few hours on public transport very nicely. Read more

    You know those little cardboard puzzles you get in Christmas crackers where you have to fit geometric shapes into a grid? Tedious aren’t they? Well Neves is pretty much a glorified version of those puzzles. But the bizarre thing is that although it looks boring, the premise is boring, and the presence of hundreds of incredibly similar stages threatens boredom on a massive scale, the reality is that this is a simple yet soothing way to spend your time.

    Neves' greatest selling point is the fact that it really is a 'pick up and play' title. The greatest recommendation probably comes from my mother who has been searching for an alternative to Brain Training. Five minutes with this and she was hooked. It has heaps of puzzles too, not to mention an almost perfectly pitched learning curve. Possibly the only drawback is the fact that this is essentially a single game. Yes, it has a handful of options to allow you to attack... Read more

    A great game for all the family, it's a true testament to the developers to create a game that is addictive for practically everybody in the household. Its another one of the casual games that doesn't deserve the casual label because of its truly excellent game play. Whilst not a field of flowers to look out, it has clean lines and chirpy music.

    Unless you think that you'll enjoy solving a lot of puzzles using the same set of shapes, this may not be your cup of tea. That being said, that same set of shapes can form so many different things that you won't feel constricted by them. Read more
