It’s a double celebration as the game just passed 250,000 downloads, inspiring 5,000 players to write positive reviews awarding the game a top score of 97% on Steam, making it one of the best rated games (Top 23rd) of 2020! A much welcomed milestone for the release today of the game’s Puzzle DLC, available on Steam for $4.99, €4,99, £3.99 (discounted 10% at launch). The base game shapez.io will be 30% off during the Steam Summer sales!

About shapez.io:

shapez.io is a relaxed game in which you build factories for the automated production of geometric shapes. As the levels increase, the shapes become more and more complex, forcing you to expand on the infinite map. As if that wasn’t enough, you also have to produce exponentially more to satisfy the demands – the only thing that helps is scaling! While you only have to process shapes at the beginning, you will later have to color them – by extracting and mixing colors!

The shapez.io Puzzle DLC takes puzzling to a whole new level!

The game’s first DLC brings an extra game mode and an unlimited amount of content thanks to the player puzzle creation engine! Tobias Springer, shapez.io creator explains, 

“The funnest part in shapez.io comes after a solution is found – and that is improving a structure. Even shrinking a reusable section by a single block is incredibly satisfying, no matter how long it takes. With the Puzzle DLC, I wanted to build on this feeling and reinforce this very concept – The player has limited space & buildings and must find a solution within those constraints to deliver the correct shapes. Past experiences have proven to me that the shapez.io community is incredibly creative – so it was essential that puzzles could be created & shared by the community. For this reason, I’ve made sure to add a puzzle editor that allows players to create, test and publish their own challenges!”

 

Shapez.io Puzzle DLC Key Features:

  • Solve the puzzles by creating the given shapes in a limited space and with a set amount of buildings available!
  • There are no resources and you only get a given amount of shape types and colors to work with!
  • Compete with other players and see if you can solve even the most difficult puzzles. And if that’s not enough for you, can design and share your own creations with the puzzle editor!
  • Enjoy the new soundtrack created especially for the DLC by the composer of the original game!

Shapez.io is available for PC Via Steam for $6.99. The Puzzle DLC is available to wishlist. You can join the Discord server as well.
