Is this <Secret Heart (Secret Plus)>..?

Last week, Circuheart (Standard Edition) was released as a big deal, and within a week, version 19 of the same game is released as a big deal.

The Circuheart (Secret Plus) version was also released as a Flake exchange item last month.

If we look at the trend, it seems like games that appear in the Flake Exchange Shop will be big deals for the time being?

Well then, there are already a lot of games out there, so I hope my hunch is wrong.

+ It is called a coupon that can be used multiple times.

The game I played today is “Click Painter” .

It's a game that takes the Minesweeper approach and adds more colors to make it more challenging.

The background music is peaceful and relaxes the brain, but it also makes the brain work hard, so it lights up.

So, let's see what makes it different from other Minesweepers.

Once you start the game, there are 8 puzzles like this.

Click to jump right into the puzzle.

Then the puzzle begins right away.

For those of you who don't know about Minesweeper, here's a quick explanation.

The ultimate goal of Minesweeper is to uncover all squares while avoiding mines .

In the image above, the numbers represent the number of mines within a 3x3 area centered on that square .

Now, let's look at the boxes that have the number 2 written on them , which I've highlighted in green and orange .

There are four empty spaces around the green square. It is unclear where the two mines are.

But there are only two empty spaces around the orange square. So there must be mines in those two spaces, right?

Two mines were uncovered.

However, the green part is still unknown.

First of all, there is a mine near 2, so effectively there is a mine in one of the three empty spaces.

And there is a 1 on the left of 2, so there can't be a mine in the place marked with a red X.

You can find out by substituting it directly.

If we assume that there is a mine in the place marked O, 2 is already satisfied .

But the 1 on the left is not satisfied, right?

So to satisfy, let's say there are mines in two squares near 1.

Then 2 It would be like saying there are three mines nearby .

So, that part is a structure that cannot be solved with certainty.

I guess I'll have to work out the other parts first.

Now, I will tell you the know-how I have learned while playing Minesweeper.

If you've played Minesweeper a lot, you probably already know.

First is 121 .

If 1/2/1 appears on the roadside like a green range, there are always two mines on both sides of the 2 and right below the 1 .

Because there can't be a mine right below 2.

If there is a mine there, then a 1 close to that space will not be established if there is another mine in one of the two marked O's.

Next is 1221 .

This is the exact opposite of the situation above, with two mines located directly below 2 .

If you look now, it's listed as 1222, but due to the mine on the right, it's no different from 1221.

This is also for a similar reason, but if we assume that there is a mine in the place marked with an X, it does not work as in the following reason.

OXOX / XOXO → One of the two does not hold true

OOXX / XXOO → There are 2 mines nearby

OXXO → 2 Neither of them is valid

There may be more, but these are the cases where there is only one option by substitution .

However, there are cases where it is not certain even after substitution.

If I just solve this, everything will be over, but how do I solve this one at the end?

First, we check the part where the probability is definitely 50%, and then we go in assuming that one of the two is a mine.

Since it is certain that there is a mine in one of the two question marks, 5 and 6 above and below the question mark, let's assume that there is a mine in the innermost question mark.

1. If the inner question mark is a mine, there is always no mine on its left.

2. Because of the X mark on the right, the space above the 4 below it becomes the only empty space, so there will definitely be a mine there. Question mark.

3. Because of the new question mark, the condition on the left of the 4 is satisfied, so there will definitely be no mines in the two blank spaces above the 4.

4. But if that happens, the number of blank spaces around 7 will be reduced to 3, so 7 itself will no longer be valid.

If you go into it like this, making assumptions upon assumptions, if you are in the wrong position, you will eventually find an error.

So now that we've figured out that one of the 50% is a mistake, choosing the other one is a sure bet.

Now let's assume the other side is a mine.

1. Assuming that the left 5 is a mine, the bottom 4 is satisfied, so there is no mine above the bottom 4.

2. Since there are no mines on the 4th, the two empty spaces on the left of the 5th are both mines unconditionally.

3. In this way, the left 4 is also satisfied, so there is no mine in the 4th place.

4. 7 There is one place that should not have any mines nearby, so the condition is satisfied.

If you make assumptions and solve them, any puzzle will be solved without fail.

It may be difficult to explain it well in writing, but you will get the feel of it if you try it yourself.

I cleared all 8 puzzles.

Are there any other puzzles?

The part that needs to be paid attention to at that time is this part,

This basically acts as a stage. So what is this?

The four icons on the right side of the palette represent 1/2/3/4 colors in that order.

The three icons on the right of the blocks below represent the puzzle sizes of 16x16 / 32x32 / 64x64 , in that order.

These two elements interact with each other to create one stage.

So, there are 12 stages in total, 4 x 3.

There are 8 puzzles per stage, so the game itself

Basically, it provides 96 puzzles.

A shape with multiple colors looks like this.

The visuals are reminiscent of Sudoku...

Just think of it as running 3 Minesweeper games at the same time.

Of course, mines of different colors are not treated as numbers of different colors.

In effect, each other's minefields are just empty squares.

As a puzzle game, it already has a decent amount of content, right?

But clearing all of this is not the end.

As you play the game, the classics will open.

This game is based on Minesweeper.

So we also offer some random puzzles that are unique to Minesweeper.

The puzzles that were previously provided had a shape, so I could solve them by inferring them, but

What if it were completely random and had multiple colors mixed together ?

Just imagining it would be a terrifying puzzle.

And along with the classics, customs are also opening up.

You can enjoy the puzzle by inserting pictures that I prepared myself.

It was a more full-fledged game than expected, with even elements of a creative space prepared.

I also tried making a picture once.

Download the image above and enjoy it for yourself.

It won't be easy because there are 4 colors. Hahaha.

It was a puzzle game that gave a completely different feel by introducing multiple colors to the ordinary minesweeper.

Including this, the level of puzzles provided by the game itself was also quite high.

My perception that all puzzle games that create a healing atmosphere are killing games was not wrong today.

I will solve all the puzzles and enjoy the challenge.

It's been a while since Mashuang turned his brain off and didn't want to think about anything.

Hello. This is Seon-ah.
I'm going to write about what I felt while playing INZOI.
I think it would be good to just use this as a reference, as each person may have different feelings.
merit
1. Attractive Joy
Whether it's a male or female role, it's really well chosen.
If you're not happy with your appearance when you go to the actual map, you can always adjust it by interacting with the mirror.
Creating the lover you want? It's possible if you have the skills.
Personally, I have terrible hands, so I played with it for about 4 hours and then gave up.
2. Various architecture
Building is a lot of fun.
It takes 3-4 hours just to build a character house.
However, if you are not confident in your ability to build, buying a house for sale is also an option.
3. Early Access
Since it hasn't been updated yet, you can expect some shortcomings.
Of course, there are many things that cannot be shielded with this.
I think it will probably take another year or two to be complete.
disadvantage
1. Dumb AI
The movements are not smooth and when you do one, the other actions stop completely.
I don't know if it's appropriate to stop moving, but it's a bit disconcerting to suddenly run out to exercise while talking about society.
It would be a lot better if it could multitask to some extent, but it's just so rigid.
In special situations like fires, they panic and don't move, but they also block doors.
2. Fluid age
It's true that ageing is realistic and good, but it changes too quickly.
All I wanted to do was go to school, work out, learn how to dance, and become an idol dancer, but when I came to my senses, I was a middle-aged office worker...
I think it would be good if there was some part that could be fixed to some extent.
3. Insufficient content
I've played around with the solid alternative called 'The Sims' and enjoyed most of what there was to play, but trying to do something with the bare minimum of content is frustrating.
There are many visible and invisible restrictions on what you can do, as well as many things that you are forced to do when you don't want to (random names, etc.), the usability of various home appliances is limited, and there are forced motions whenever you cook or interact with the TV... There are a lot of ambiguous parts that stand out.
TIPS
If you only push the main joy, you may find that strange things are happening when you come to your senses.
You need to check multiple joys and pay some attention to interactions.
If you experience any bugs such as freezing or disconnection, don't panic - just start over.
If you think of it as unfinished and have a broad mind, it will be less frustrating.
Reviews
There was a lot of talk about it being a Korean version of The Sims, so I tried it out, and the basic framework was better completed than I expected.
The problem is that there is only a skeleton.
It looks magnificent and cool from the outside because it hasn't been fully built yet, but inside it's just a construction site with nothing special about it.
There are a lot of things I need to pack inside, but it's a size that will take at least a year or two to finish, so it's a shame I can't enjoy it now.
However, the definite merit is customizing and building a house.
Decorating the house was a bit of an exception, as it wasn't very convenient to install various things and there were quite a few parts that I didn't like.
Since you can buy the full game for the price of a few DLCs for The Sims 4, I don't think it's a bad price range, so I recommend it to people who like the simulation genre, want to do detailed customization, or want to try building a house.
Summary Score (out of 5 points / 1 point: ♥ / 0.5 points: ♡)
Story: ♥♡ (It's a story I made myself, but I can't control it very well.)
Graphics: ♥♥♥♥♥ (It's likely to be compared to The Sims.)
Sound: ♥♥ (It feels right, but sometimes I feel like it's empty.)
Content: ♥ (It's a shame that there's nothing that feels like main content yet.)
Convenience: ♥♥ (It has both good and bad aspects in terms of convenience, but I think it’s still lacking.)
Cat: ♥♥♥♥♥♥ (Cats rule the world!)
Since this is written based on personal criteria, each person's impression may differ.
Thank you for reading this long post.
