By that time, you may just have fallen in love with Bonfire Peaks.Īs stated, it’s a blocky obstacle course that will alternate in complexities as you progress with booby (heh – booby) traps and crumbling paths, ingeniously using the blocks – and belongings before you burn them.

You can go at a leisurely pace, and there’s even an undo button which you’ll both abuse and foolishly press when on the tip of solving the issue. Picker/Packer Source: Steamīut note that there are no real threats in the game either. Or you attempt to ascend a block to realise you need to place other blocks to reach those heights, but doing it can be infuriating. Matey would pivot at the hips, and then BOOM! he’s hit a post and can’t turn any further, so you have to do a pseudo rotation to face the right way, thus solve the puzzle. Let me stress that Bonfire Peaks isn’t a rage game per se, but early days was a Marmite affair – in short, love/hate. I liked the concept, but it was getting close to a few rage quits. It’s because I would play intermittently as the animation and directional control was rubbing me up the wrong way. Is that lucky because it’s a massive game? No.

My version of Bonfire Peaks was on the Nintendo Switch, and like Draknek and Friends other title, A Monster’s Expedition – one of the best puzzle games on the Switch – it’s perfectly suited for on the go, or in my case, when winding down in the evening.Ī review code was forthcoming, and I was lucky enough to have this for a bit of time. It requires skill or some unconscious capability where your motor skills will do the work while your grey matter fills in the gaps and plans ahead with a solution.

I found the movement in Bonfire Peaks to resemble reversing in Euro Truck Simulator 2 (a game I recently picked up and have been binging on). At a glance, it’s clear what you need to do it’s how that’ll be the problem. It’s this movement where the challenge power punches its way into the gameplay. Movement is four-directional (sorry, diagonal fans), and your character will frequently have to walk backwards, arms stretched out as a voxel R.O.B. That’s a lie, more like a rhino, as this can be tough. You’ll pick up your crate of wonders and transport it to the burning flames, embracing the blocks that are presented before by floating over them like a beautiful butterfly.

Bonfire Peaks Reviewīut it’s really not that important with regards to the motivation in Bonfire Peaks as you’ll be preoccupied with solving the puzzles. It’s not important, and it’s your job, if you want it, to fill in the blanks as this nameless character isn’t one for chatting or expressing anything. What could be inside? Bad music compilations? Love letters from a teen romance? Fireworks? Porn? Who knows. Crowns and Pawns: Kingdom of Deceit – A New Franchise?
