Reflection Connection
SCORE: 90
Reflection Connection is a prism style video game. There are orbs of
different colors with letters on them. The player must match them to the
matching orb. The game has a grid on it and the matching orb can be on
the same side, a different side, etc. Lights lines can cross one
another. The key is putting down as few mirrors as possible to acquire
the highest score possible. Sounds simple huh? Trust me it is very easy
to solve a board in Reflection Connection. Getting the best score is a
completely different story.
Each orb has its very own color that it emits. This light is only seen
when the matching orb is connected. The grid is black with what I will
describe as chalk marks lining everything up. The mirrors add color to
this background. Behind the game play area are some psychedelic colors
that add even more color. I found no offensive images or graphics in
Reflection Connection.
The music in Reflection Connection is addicting. I normally do not like
this kind of music, but it drew me into this game level after level. In
fact at times I was not interested in my timer or the level - just
enjoying the tunes. The psychedelic graphics may have something to do
with that. And no my brain was not on drugs. I found no offensive sounds
while playing Reflection Connection.
Reflection Connection boasts thousands of unique board. Some of them had
attributes that are similar to others, but I never got bored with
beating level after level after level. In some ways Reflection
Connection feels endless. Which is a good thing because this is a fun
game. Reflection Connection also lets you post on Facebook and Twitter
if you so desire. You can also challenge friends and family in head to
head competition.
On the surface Reflection Connection seems shallow. I mean it is easy to
beat the boards. If that is your thing then you will blow through board
after board. At some point though you might want to get a higher score
or be more efficient. This is where Reflection Connection gets deep.
There are multiple ways to solve each and every board. Reflection
Connection is fun, even though I found it a little on the easy side.
The largest lesson I learned from Reflection Connection is how to slant
mirrors to connect laser beams. I never know when this skill will come
in handy. Maybe when I, well not there. So I may not come up with an
example for this review, however the thoughts processes required for
this game will improve your mental prowess. Reflection Connection can
help family members shift their thinking while enjoying a colorful light
show.
