**Editors pick for “New games we love” in 135+ countries** **Editors pick for “New and noteworthy games” in 150+ countries** **Editors pick for “What we are playing this week”** **Editors choice "Indie corner"** Luminosus is a unique and challenging puzzle game that combines the fun of matching colors on a Tetris-esque board. Puzzle pieces can be changed back and forth as many times as you want, so a red block will change a yellow piece orange but another red piece will change it back to red. If a piece is influenced by all three colors it is turned white and scores significantly more when cleared. In this way the game requires planning more steps ahead than your standard piece-dropping puzzle game. With its simple but addictive gameplay, Luminosus offers hours of entertainment and a twist on the classic Tetris and Puyo experience. Features: • Classic mode for a relaxing experience • Marathon game mode for the ultimate challenge • Compete against the world on the leaderboard • Achievements • Controller support • Color blind and night modes • Unique and challenging gameplay that combines Tetris with color matching

Godfrey's Crusade is free to download; Luminosus costs $0.29 up front. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Luminosus holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Luminosus has 17 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 71% of Luminosus's written reviews are positive against 100% of Godfrey's Crusade's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
