Abstract

Recent years, video games have become one of the main forms of entertainment for people of all ages, in which millions of members publicly show their screenshots while playing games or share their experience of playing games [4]. Puzzle game is a popular game genre among various video games, it challenges players to find the correct solution by providing them with different logic/conceptual problems. However, designing a good puzzle game is not an easy task [5]. This paper designs a puzzle game for players of all age ranges with proper difficulty level, various puzzle mechanics and attractive background setting stories. We applied our games to different players to test play and conducted a qualitative evaluation of the approach. The results show that the pace of puzzle games affects play experience a lot and the difficulty level of the puzzles affects players' feelings to the game.
