How it Works: You first need to download the game from the Play Store, and then you’re ready to start playing.
When you first start playing, you’ll be given some pointers as to how to play the game.
When trying to complete a puzzle, you need to highlight one of the totems and then move it so that the flow can get from one point to the other. You only get a certain amount of moves before it’s game over. In order to combat this, you can select any of the totems and move it around to figure out the best way to maximize your amount of moves.
If you complete the level, you’re given a star rating, which you can improve on by playing the level again.
Things start off relatively simple but, they soon get harder and harder, until you’ll face a real change with lots of totems on screen at once.
Opinion: The Gravity is one of those puzzle games that needs to be played to really understand why it’s so challenging and compelling. I love puzzle games and in fact, that’s mostly what my tablet is filled with and this really tested my skill. I suddenly felt like I was playing a more interesting, quicker game of Chess. Which is certainly a compliment and the game is extremely challenging, to the point where the game will creep into your life and keep you awake. It looks good, plays good and will test your mental skills more than most puzzlers out there.
