Tappi Adventures

TAPPI ADVENTURES is a puzzle game that challenges the player to put a picture back together by swapping two pieces at a time. The pictures are divided up into repeated geometric shapes (such as rectangles or triangles). The concept is nice, but because all of the digital images are made up of geometric drawings and stick figures, it's often difficult to tell which way is supposed to be up for a particular piece — whether that's part of the challenge isn't clear. When the puzzle is completed, the player is rewarded with a quote from Tappi, the stick-figure mascot. Some of these quotes have poor grammar. With 36 puzzles included in the free app and more puzzles and hint packs as $.99 add-ons, Tappi Adventures could quickly add up to a $5 app. However, the amateur graphics and clunky interface aren't really worth much more than checking out the free version.
