After the recent update - the game is more smooth and stable! A new leveling system was added, but I don't know what it does yet. I look forward to it, though!

I love the customization this game offers, as well as the effects you can turn on and off when you need to.

You can use the built-in puzzles, which are really nice - or you can add your own, which I really love.

If you need to get rid of anxiety, or think about something (like a plot for a story or an idea to ponder on) this game is perfect for that. Being able to change the mat color is also life saving because not all colors fit well with the puzzles you work on. So I like to have blue when I work on an orange-like color tone. You can shift them at any time, so if you have one with many colors, you can work on it section by section and change the mat as you need to. I've had to do that with my super-color-neon-rainbow kind of pictures.

VERY much worth the price, and VERY much worth your time if you are a big fan of puzzles, but you can do without all the extra stuff that some games have. I just want to do a puzzle, I don't want all the bells and whistles that other simulators offer that are just..... fondant on cake with no icing.

This game is not just a cake with frosting - it's layered with buttercream and berries, and then decorated with top quality items like edible glitter and candied fruit.

Seriously - look how many hours I have. It's not from leaving the game running either - you can stop at any time and pick up precisely where you were - it even puts the pieces back where you sorted them after the image fully loads. So no stress, no muss, no fuss.

This is the best puzzle simulator on Steam, and I stand by that.

Edited to add: Oh Gods, I am so happy this program works again. I cannot tell you how depressed I was without it. It scratches an itch I can't get anywhere else....
