circloO is a colorful physics platformer in a growing circle. This app version contains all levels from circloO and circloO 2, plus brand-new bonus levels! There's also a level editor and already over 10,000 levels created by players like you! You're a small ball rolling around in a round level. Collect circles to grow the level circle. As it grows, everything stays in the level, so you'll have to avoid and use obstacles in everchanging ways. For example, a platform that was first very useful to gain height, may prove to be a challenging obstacle after the level has grown! You can only move left and right, so you'll want to use features of the level carefully to jump and gain height. You'll discover all sorts of physics features, such as changing gravity, a sea of tiny blocks, strange contraptions and even planets with a gravity field. In challenging parts, you'll find yourself fully immersed, pressing the screen as hard as you can trying to get closer to finally collecting that next circle. But don't worry: you'll never have to start over a level, so you can always try again really quickly! And I can guarantee you'll feel amazing once you finally manage it! circloO Complete features: - Lots of cool physics features: ropes, pulleys, changing gravity and much more! I've included quite a few mechanics for you to discover. - Over 75 fun, growing, ever more challenging levels! Can you complete the six almost-but-not-quite-impossible Hard Mode levels? - There's also a level editor and an ever increasing number of player created levels! - All levels from circloO 2 and the original circloO, plus 28 brand-new levels! - Unique physics puzzles in each level. - Great music and sound effects by Stijn Cappetijn. - Minimalist and colorful graphics. - The game will take most players three to five hours to complete. Level times are saved, so you can try to beat your own highscores and speedrun levels after that! Plus there are thousands of player-created levels to continue playing forever! - Relaxing yet challenging physics puzzle platforming fun! I'm very happy that circloO 2 on the web won the first Crazy Games developer contest out of 200 contestants! It was also third in the Kongregate contest of November 2018. You may remember it from CoolMath Games as well. Reviews: "It’s an excellent game that has a very playful and chilled out approach to the gameplay, whilst also featuring some wonderfully intricate level design. A very impressive puzzle platformer you’ll really want to roll with. Highly recommended." - Free Game Planet "The difficulty scales upwards nicely and you're constantly rewarded for learning new skills as these always come up in future levels." - Jayisgames The game contains occasional ads after a level, which can be removed with a one-time in-app purchase, which supports development as well. Have fun and I'm happy to hear what you think!

Read full descriptionHide full description
Enter a compact optics lab where every move changes the path of light. Laser Box Puzzle is a spatial logic game about moving and rotating optical boxes. Guide the laser through every checkpoint and into the receiver to complete each circuit. Mirrors reflect the full beam around corners. Glass splitters transmit light while also creating a reflected branch. Move each optical box one cell at a time, rotate it into the correct angle, and watch the beam update instantly. FEATURES - Learn the rules through six handcrafted tutorial circuits - Continue with an unlimited supply of generated puzzles - Solve deterministic circuits built from guaranteed solvable layouts - Move and rotate mirrors and glass splitters - Route light through checkpoints, walls, and multiple beam paths - Earn up to three stars based on your number of moves - Undo moves or restart a circuit whenever you need - Keep your progress and stars saved locally - Use an extra mirror when you need another way forward - Enjoy responsive haptic feedback with an optional setting The generated circuits gradually introduce longer routes, more optical boxes, additional checkpoints, walls, and deeper scrambles. Every endless level keeps a stable layout, so you can leave and return without the puzzle changing. Extra mirrors are placed automatically in a random empty cell. The game includes three shared mirror credits. After they are used, additional mirrors can be requested by watching an optional rewarded ad. No account is required. Core puzzle gameplay is available offline, while an internet connection is required for advertising and related privacy controls. Move. Rotate. Illuminate.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Laser Box Puzzle at none against circloO's 1. Laser Box Puzzle also leads on update cadence (daily vs every 2 months). circloO's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (10 vs 16.0). On price and ads there is nothing between them.
