*2026-02-13, version 1.3*

This puzzle game is a joy to play. Clever puzzles, nice flow from puzzle to puzzle, beautiful relaxing music, clean, minimalist design with no timers or scores, just joyful puzzle solving. 
This game is so minimalistic in its design that I forget about it, but whenever I come back to it I’m reminded what a lovely game it is. 
A must-have for puzzlers.

### 5/5 — Wundervolles Brain Training

*2026-02-04*

Eine schöne und günstige Abwechslung zu den ganzen Puzzeln mit logischen Elementen. Es spielt sich fließend und intuitiv und bietet trotz der Einfachheit ansprechende und im ersten Level schon eine gute Möglichkeit sich auf leichte Weise zu fordern. Ich bin rundum zufrieden und froh über eine Empfehlung auf Linelight getroffen zu sein. Ich bin auf die restliche Reise sehr gespannt!

### 5/5 — Schönes Spiel

*2025-11-14, version 1.3*

Zur Entspannung und ausruhen

### 5/5 — Solche Spiele gibt es viel zu selten

*2025-04-27*

Ich bewerte nicht viele Apps. Aber LineLight ist ein wunderschönes Puzzle Spiel mit einzigartige Spielmechanik. Schade das dieses Spiel und ähnliche nicht sehr präsent im AppStore gezeigt werden.

### 4/5 — Simply clean graphics, beautiful.

*2025-04-27, version 1.3*

New to this type of game, thoroughly enjoying the experience so far.  Not so great on beating the flashing red light so much!!

### 5/5 — 面白いです

*2025-02-16*

時間を忘れてプレイできます。

### 1/5 — Kaum zu steuern

*2025-02-12, version 1.3*

Die Figur auf dem iPad vernünftig zu steuern, ist kaum möglich. Mal läuft sie zu weit, mal nicht schnell genug. Das ist einfach nur frustrierend. Habe die App wieder gelöscht.

### 5/5 — 有意義な課金

*2025-01-21*

音楽がすき！ミニマルで癒される

### 2/5 — 最初は良かったが

*2024-12-27*

5分でイラついてやめた笑
