Our take on Ursid
Its relaxed, clue-based design gives up action and systemic complexity in favor of a focused constellation-puzzle format. The open level order also reduces the sense of a strictly paced story progression.
What is Ursid?
Ursid is a puzzle game built around connecting stars into constellation-like images.
Playing as Aster, a young boy, players choose levels in a non-linear order while uncovering hidden pictures and progressing through a father-son story. The game includes more than 40 handcrafted levels and adds numbered hints to its connecting-dots mechanics. Solving some constellations requires interpreting the available clues and using imagination. A calm atmosphere accompanies the puzzle progression, while the narrative moves toward the appearance of the Ursid Shower.
