Someone clearly decided to stagger the difficulty of the levels rather than use a natural difficulty progression which would gradually increase as you advance.
This was intended to evoke certain emotions as you alternate between struggling and succeeding. Similar to a music playlist that varies from rock to ballads, intentionally shifting your moods. On some level they’ve succeeded with that goal.
However, it comes at the cost of destroying the peaceful flow of the game. It literally went from beginner to advanced and back to child difficulty within 15 levels. NOT harmonious.
It’s like having a death metal song stuck in the middle of your meditation playlist. It’s jarring and unpleasant.
If it weren’t for that one major flaw, the game would be quite enjoyable. The minimalistic gameplay and music are superb.
They should combine the best elements from Harmony 1 and Harmony 2.
Harmony 1 has a smoother difficulty progression, but you actually have to pay to use the Undo Move function! Ugly.
Harmony 2 is more polished, has more levels and has the Sleep feature… but the harsh difficulty progression is very frustrating.
Perhaps Harmony 3 combines the best features and loses the worst ones, but I’m not willing to risk paying for another one of these games.
This was written because the game relentlessly insisted that I review it on the App Store. It’s an honest review and I hope someone finds it helpful.
