You really need to think hard.. I love this game. Sure does make you think. ### 3/5 — Good idea; poor design *2018-01-22* This is the type of game that requires hints. In all the different modes of the game, there should be hints. However, this is not the case. I find that surprising and frustrating. I understand the idea that using hints perpetually defeats the purpose of a puzzle, but for those that don’t care, their absence is a glaring defect in the design. I appreciate that this game has no IAPs. This also baffles me, but one can’t complain. I’ve also noticed a glitch in the audio; I play most games with the regular volume turned all the way down, but the ringer volume turned all the way up. I encountered something with this game that I’ve never seen before: every so often, when I make a move, it is audible at my ringer volume. This is very unsettling. Overall, this is a good game, and I’m surprised that it has only received 7 ratings. With that bug fixed and the addition of hints in every mode, this specimen has a very high potential, and I will rate it accordingly. **Developer response:** Hi, I pushed an update with fixes. Hints are available from level 7 onward. I created also a Special Event with new levels and a new kind of gameplay with little creatures. Hope you enjoy. ### 4/5 — Clever *2017-12-26* Nicely done game. Fun to solve puzzles to lovely and soothing graphics. Only change I would suggest is for more variety in background music. **Developer response:** Just updated with Special Events, and a couple of new bg music. Thanks for playing. ### 5/5 — Excellent game *2017-11-15* A good little puzzle game, engaging. ### 4/5 — Satisfyingly challenging *2017-11-09* This occupied me through two plane trips behind screaming babies. I will forever be grateful. ### 5/5 — Lots of exercise, no stress *2017-11-06* This is the most soothing game since Lines was abandoned by its developer. ### 2/5 — Really wanted to like *2017-10-29* I instantly purchased this after noting its similarity to ON/OFF, a personal favorite. But for a game touted as "relaxing," ERMO sure has an awful lot going on. Four different modes, a checklist of goals, some kind of "energy" that you earn to spend on resets, hints, and level skips (most puzzles have to be solved in a minimum number of moves). It's all a little much. At least there's no timer or IAPs. **Developer response:** Hi, thanks for playing. I see lots of points. If you (still) really want to like, please contact me (games at nonostante dot io). I listen carefully and I can change or add elements to the game. This is not a polite answer merely to show on the store. This is a real proposal to address your concerns. But because of the size, we need to talk. Anyway, I just updated the game with a special new content (it'll arrive tomorrow). Hope you like it. ### 5/5 — Great game *2017-10-29* This is a low key fun and relaxing game. Sound track is a highlight. Feel relaxed focused on the goals. ## Frequently asked questions about ERMO ### What is ERMO?
