Styx is a hot new arcade-puzzle game with a new super-easy gameplay mechanic and non stop arcade puzzle action. The goal of the game is to try and make the longest paths of gems, fruits and other items for big scores. Sounds so easy but can get so mind blowingly addictive. Infinite number of levels, lots of power-ups and cool features and the game has 29 medals for you to try and unlock. Very easy to play, but hard to master. The gameplay is so easy that kids have no problem understanding the game in under 5 seconds but even the greatest players will find it challenging to master. Styx has two game modes and supports personal profiles for each player. All the game statistics and medals are recorded individually for each user. An online Hall of Fame with the all-time top players or the current month's best players is available for you to make your mark.
There are a variety of coloured balls with reasonable contrast between them. The control is Mouse based so it could make a reasonable tool for improving mouse control.
Cons
Only 5 levels in the demo, not the 8 as stated. The interface for entering your name is reminiscent of arcade games of the late 80s. Some of balls are quite boring.
