Really enjoyable and addictive!
Mon Jul 01 2019 Li3303I love this game! It’s quickly become my favorite! When I’m doing other things I can’t wait to get back to it! The puzzles are so much fun and the harder ones are so satisfying when you finally click that last piece. One of the things I like the best is that you can go into options and click a box to see ALL the puzzles in the game. Developers- thank you so much for that. I’m the kind of person who likes to try puzzles ahead of where I’m at in the game. It’s nice that they don’t have to be solved in chronological order. There’s also an infinite mode- I like that it’s a little bit different than any of the regular puzzles. I also love that there are NO in app purchases and NO ADS. I’m so tired of having ads interrupt the flow of a game. And there are no timers! I hate timers! I have only one complaint. I play on an iPad Mini and I wish the Infinite Puzzle filled out a little more of the screen. That’s one of the reasons I play on the Mini- larger puzzles are easier on the eyes. The regular and daily puzzles are large enough, it’s just the Infinite that could be a little bigger. It looks fine on an iPhone, I don’t know about a regular iPad.
What even?
Wed Mar 28 2018 Dreaming of WolvesHow is this game so satisfying? I thought I fell out of the puzzle genre because all the puzzles I was playing were either frustrating or boring. Frustrating because of limited moves, boring because the game mechanics became boring. This game is neither. It’s also a solid game with the three essential modes: handcrafted levels (120 of them!), daily mode, and endless. So if you are like me and enjoy the core gameplay, it will keep you going for a long time. I wish there was another mode in which the puzzles are randomly generated. Technically that’s already in daily, but I’m limited to six a day in daily mode. That’s not enough to deter from the game. One of the best parts is that the music is ambient, so it doesn’t grate on my nerves.
Yeah, this is a good game.
Sun May 13 2018 bewbalooThe title says it all. Dissembler is a puzzler built on a simple premise, but the levels will challenge you quite a bit at times. There's a nice feeling of satisfaction when you figure that last move that sends the board cascading towards completion, and an even nicer glimmer of accomplishment when the board washes away into the next challenge. This is a lovely puzzler worth every cent. Top-notch developing here. If I could beg the developer for two things: an option to have haptic feedback for the "click" when the player chooses to turn off sound effects would be a god-send (or just have an extra option to turn haptic feedback on/off regardless of the sound options). The default "click" sound is atrocious and absolutely grating to listen to. Also a challenge mode with a limited number of "clicks", and then the board resets completely if not completed with N moves. Still, a five star game no matter what 👌🏻
Great way to bide the time
Tue Jun 30 2020 TheonewhoboughtablankscreenDissembler is an enjoyable way to pass the time. The sounds and graphics are simple and sleek. The only qualm is there is one puzzle that seems to be unsolvable. Unfortunately, the stages aren’t numbered to be able to direct my question to the app makers. *** Addendum to this review: I reached out to the creator of the app via email with a screenshot of the stage. Ian quickly provided guidance to help me to solve the stage! Thank you for your response and for creating such an interesting and entertaining game. If you enjoy logic puzzles, you will love this game.
Wonderful game and no ads!
Mon Feb 26 2018 SandyC7193Dissembler is fun and inventive and challenging. No hints but there are so many playing options you never run out of things to do even when you are temporarily stuck on a level. No ads is a huge bonus! Dissembler is great at training us through the levels and how to do the new challenges as we advance. I look forward to see what Ian MacLarty creates next (although this game will keep me going possibly forever).
I have some notes on the infinite mode
Tue Apr 30 2024 FlischerrI just finished this brilliant game, and i wanted more. Here were my experience started with the infinite mode. The whole idea of the mode is “ if a connection is possible, than do it” which make it brainless, and requires no skill whatsoever. If the developers made a change to make this mode more strategic( the player should have more control over his future options, rather it randomly popping out), i swear the game would be perfect. When i recommended this game to my colleague, he also found the mode to be dull and needless.
All-time great puzzle game
Thu Jun 30 2022 papersceneryDissembler is such a smart and elegant puzzle game that perfectly rides the line between satisfyingly challenging and frustrating. I have only gotten really stuck on one of the puzzles and I happily came back to it periodically over almost a year to solve it. It is intuitive rather than irritating and the laid-back minimal style always makes it enjoyable. An all-time great.
Beautiful, Complex, Subtle
Thu Aug 22 2019 Causality LOLHands down, this is one of the best puzzle games in the App Store. Not only are there over a hundred puzzles as part of the main game, but also an infinite mode, and six new puzzles EVERY day. I haven’t missed a day since I bought the game more than a year ago. Dissembler is a model mobile application!
