I am freaked out
The static and ambience combined with the eyes on some levels make me intimidated and waiting for a jumpscare… other than that 10/triangle, would play again!
YANKAI’S TRIANGLES
This game has allowed me to form a more holistic and nuanced view of the universe we live in
It is perfect

YANKAI,S TRIANGLE.-🤔—💭 ?
I’m loving this!, this is a right head scratcher this one & an absolute mindbender to boot.
I’ve never seen a game quite like this.
& when the puzzles get harder and I can’t solve the puzzle I’m on I get annoyed with it!
But that’s what gaming is all about isn’t it 👍
I specifically look on the App Store for games like this. Games that are totally out the ordinary. & this is it. A right brain 🧠 Scratching puzzler this one.

LOVE OF TRIANGLES
This is more an art piece than a game. I don’t think I paid for it(it was years ago and I deleted it for space but downloaded it again today) but it would be worth money.
Great game, super addictive
I love this game. Sometimes I play with the sound muted because I find the audio kind of spooky. I like that aesthetic though, so other times I leave it on. I almost gave it a bad review because I thought one of the levels was broken, but it turned out I just needed to up my puzzle game. The only suggestion I would make is there should be an option to turn off the levels that have fast flashing/strobe-like effects for folks with epileptic or sensory processing issues.

Triangles
It’s a fun game, but could really benefit from iCloud game saves. I don’t particularly feel like starting over to play on a new device.
Lacks Basic Game Instructions
Disappointing App in that I couldn’t find some basic instructions on what I was supposed to do. I found it to be boring without knowing the basics. The developer’s website contained no information at all - just screen shots.
Clever, relaxing, fun, and sometimes hard.
An amazing game, I loved it from the very start with its relaxing gameplay and interesting hard and easy levels. I love playing this game so much, I wish I was able to get yankais peak but I don’t have money. Anyway this game is so fun and a great stress reliever. Been playing for such a long time and love it.

Great
This game is not like the others. The difference is that if you hate this game, it will hate you right back.
First impressions
I had a few concerns before purchasing this game:
1) can I mute sounds to minimize the creepiness? (I wanted a peaceful game, not a creepy one) and can I listen to my own music while playing?
2) are the visuals bothersome?
3) do the puzzles get repetitive?
4) does the playtime justify the price?
I’m a picky buyer. I look through reviews for days before picking something up. Yanki’s Triangle seemed pretty cool and it’s an endless, procedurally generated puzzle. I like endless puzzles and high score puzzles, so I was interested.
Here are my answers:
1) yes and yes. It’s in the settings. Muting the background noises will also mute the noises of the turning and clicking triangles, though (they’re indistinguishable, so you get complete silence). Play your own music by swiping up and pressing play. This also mutes all sound effects, even with the volume up. There are also a few bugs with playing your own music. It’ll freeze and you have to start over (on that level, not the game!!!)
2) I was not bothered by the visuals. The grainy effect was meh. May get tiring after a while. The triangles get slightly larger and smaller, as if they are breathing.
3) I have not played long enough to justify answering this question. Levels zoom by like nothing, though. I slammed through 30 of them in 40 minutes. I’m sure the later ones take longer, but that’s a warning to be wary despite people claiming to be on level 600 or whatever. Still impressive though :)
4) again, haven’t played long enough. I’m going on a trip (no wifi! Which is why I was looking for a good no-WiFi game) for a week or so. I will update my review when I come back.
Other notes: it seems like a fast addiction kind of game. I’ve read that new mechanics are introduced hundreds of levels in, though. I don’t have a good stamina for puzzlers (Threes lasted the longest for me) but we’ll see. I’ve been dissatisfied with puzzles lately. Twofold Inc. was a disappointment, and I was upset I couldn’t refund it; but Alto’s Adventure (an infinite runner) was fantastic. Maybe I should take a break from puzzlers lol. So, the praise I’m giving to this game is probably due to the new game high I’m experiencing right now (that initial excitement of playing something new). I’ll update once that fades.
Update: the more I played the game, the more I felt something was missing. Ive finally realized: this game has no atmosphere. The difficulty curve is broken. There is no score to chase — I can’t understand the scoring system and my research has come up with nothing. It’s not soothing like most puzzlers; while I appreciate the uniqueness and respect the creepy tone I think the developer wanted to show, the lack of music makes it seem somewhat bland. That is, I’m not feeling the creepy vibes. If there were equally intoxicating music, I would appreciate it more.
I’m stuck on a level and nothing is urging me to finish it. I don’t feel a sense of satisfaction; lack of scoring and lack of atmosphere (music) keeps me from satisfaction.

Not what you're expecting
So, you've picked up this game. Great!
I am currently around level 500 something and I can tell you this: once you figure out the pattern to completing the puzzles, most of them will be a cake walk. But after you get to somewhere in the 100 levels area, the game is going to become much more difficult. Watch out.
Seriously, bottom line is, get this game if you like puzzlers, don't get this game if you hate games that hate you back.

This is the abstract game!!!
This the nicest game ever and this is great in vision terms and it sounds great. Also it plays very well I am proud of this app.😆
J'adore ce jeu!
Brillant!
good puzzles but unplayable visual effects
I usually enjoy these kinds of puzzles, but the "film grain effect" dithering makes it unplayable for me. I can't look at the screen without getting headachy and nauseous. If you offered a setting to turn it off and give me a solid colored background without the random quivering I would give this game at least four stars, and I only managed to play through the first three puzzles before I had to stop.

I Love This Game. I've Played So Many Games On The App Store But None Like This. It's Unique In Creativity & The Puzzles Are Tough But Additive. The Background Noise, Multiple Triangles, Locking & Interchanging As You Advance Is Flawless. Definitely A Cool Way To Tease Your Brain & Id Suggest It To Anyone Looking For Something Different.

Puzzling and eerie
This game honestly sounds simple and it theory, it is. But. It get harder. And the puzzles are random. You could spend an hour on one and the next one spend less than one minute. The game itself as a very eerie feel to it. But other than that, it a very unique and addictive.
Awesome game!
When I first started playing this game I thought it was going to be boring.I played a little longer and realized it was just right- not boring, but not too hard. Some of the levels have you tearing your hair out trying to figure it out, while others take just a few movements to solve. This game is so unique and so well thought out, it's a pleasure to play.

What's up with the static?
The static background noise makes the game painful to play. I mean... really?
Level 278
This Level has a pattern I haven't deciphered yet. Any clues?
Meh
Been playing for a while now and have yet to find any sort of challenge in it. Nicely made app (if a little hard on the eyes) but not really any fun.
