Yuso is a fun puzzle game by Vertical Reach with over 80 levels of puzzles. As a space doctor, you must travel to each planet in the Solar System. In each level
Yuso offers a charming puzzle game experience that can be enjoyed at home or on the go. There's a nice challenge to the levels without being irritating. The atmosphere of the world and levels create a peaceful space for players to enjoy for awhile. It isn't long, but it's definitely worth your time.
Innovative puzzle games are hard to come by in this day and age. Thankfully, Yuso offers a simple yet unique puzzle-filled world that'll keep you trying to solve its clever puzzles for hours.
As a puzzler, Yuso is definitely a mixed bag. It has wonderfully cute aesthetics that are pleasing to the eye, Yuso is an attractive game for sure. The implementation of the puzzles leaves a bit to be desired, some puzzles feel very clever, some are very easy, and some are too difficult, to the point that they require trial and error to pass. Trial and error in a puzzle game is never a good thing in my view, and so, when Yuso is good, it’s very good, when it’s bad, it’s really bad.
Overall, the game has a light and endearing presentation that makes the experience more enjoyable, but the fun of actually playing quickly wears thin. No time-attack modes, achievements, or unlockables are available other than the two final planets and 20 accompanying stages. Frustratingly, the 100th stage may have a bug that makes it impossible to complete, and not being able to finish the final stage was thoroughly unsatisfying. Yuso makes a good first impression, but it becomes stale fairly quickly. I can recommend it only to people who want an easy-to-play but shallow puzzler to while away...
