Why do puzzle games have to be so annoying sometimes? Just when you think you’re making progress, the pieces move wonky or slip out of place. It’s a test of patience, especially after a long day. Good for killing time but can get downright frustrating.
Paw Friends offers a neat sliding puzzle mechanic that’s simple but tricky. The physics can be wonky sometimes, making moves less predictable. It’s easy to pick up, but figuring out the right way to slide the pieces takes some patience. Very little explanation, so expect to figure things out as you go.
The game doesn’t have traditional builds, but selecting the right paw characters can influence how you approach puzzles. Some characters seem to handle tricky sections better, but there’s no clear way to optimize fully. It’s mostly trial and error, so don’t expect a hack or quick fix.
Here’s a secret: often it’s best to focus on moving one piece at a time slowly. Rushing tends to mess you up. Take your time, plan your moves, and don’t get annoyed if you need to reset. That’s how I managed to get a bit further without losing my mind.
The game progresses through several puzzle stages, each more tricky than the last. There’s a story involving the paw characters trying to find their friends or reach a goal. The ending is satisfying but requires patience to solve all the puzzles thoroughly. Not exactly groundbreaking, but enough to keep you occupied if you stick with it.
