Big Duck Games has once again proven their knack for tapping into successful niches with the release of Flow Free: Shapes, the latest addition to their acclaimed Flow series. This engaging puzzle game challenges players to master the art of pipe puzzles, or 'flows', but with a fresh twist: navigating these flows around various shapes.

At its core, Flow Free: Shapes is a straightforward yet captivating pipe puzzle game. The objective is simple yet challenging: connect lines of different colors to complete flows without any overlaps. This latest entry in the series introduces a unique gameplay element by requiring players to maneuver their flows around distinct shapes, adding a new layer of complexity and fun to the classic formula.

Part of a broader collection that includes variations like Bridges, Hexes, and Warps, Flow Free: Shapes offers over 4000 free puzzles for players to dive into. Additionally, the game introduces a Time Trial mode and Daily Puzzles, ensuring that there's always a fresh challenge waiting for you.

While Flow Free: Shapes might seem like a minor tweak to the established formula, it delivers exactly what fans of the series expect: a satisfying and challenging puzzle experience. My only minor criticism is the segmentation of the series into different entries based on format variations, which can feel somewhat redundant. However, this does not detract from the quality and enjoyment that Flow Free: Shapes brings to the table.

If you're eager for more Flow Free action, you can download Flow Free: Shapes right now on both iOS and Android platforms.
