Prizma Puzzle - Time Waster

Prizma PuzzlePrizma Puzzle is a brain tickler wrapped up in a futuristic landscape of lasers, pyramids, and other random bluish structures. The goal of the game is to get the energy beam to reach from your energy source (starting location) to the pyramid. To do so, you must click on the energy source, then click on squares that are occupied by various types of structures. Most are simply joining structures, which allow you to pass through, but for each square you move, you lose one energy point. If you get to zero without reaching the pyramid, you lose. Luckily, there are energy-boosting dome structures, as well as ones that will allow you to increase your energy limit from 5 to 10.

Each level is a solvable puzzle, it's just a matter of figuring out what path to have your energy take. There's an added bonus by solving each level quickly, so you will benefit by studying the board ahead of time and then quickly executing your plan once you start.

While somewhat repetitive, the slow, puzzle-like gameplay is good for moments where you don't want to be frantically trying to race around or kill zombies, or other anxious video game fodder. Prizma Puzzle may be wrapped up in some fancy looking graphics, but it is a straight-up puzzle game.
