So I got my copy of Quickspot yesterday, thanks to Gamefly. Let me tell you, this is a must have, folks! This game is about finding the 10 differences between two identical pictures. There’s really not much else behind it, but the game never really gets stale. The artwork is fantastic (with quite a bit of humor thrown in). I’ve seen everything from hidden “pac-man’s” to the Prince from Katamari.

As you can see, it’s a very basic principle and that’s what makes it so fun and addictive. I never spent more than 5 minutes on any one puzzle and there was enough of a challenge to keep me wanting to play one puzzle after another. Not to mention that we’ve just started playing the game and are already up to about 130 puzzles.

There are also a few different types of challenges. Each day you can do your daily fortune, which gives you 4 categories you have to complete. Health, Work, Romance, and Money are the fortunes. Each one gives you a different response based on how well you perform the challenge.

There is also a Rapid Play. This is a timed game that you have to find one difference between the pictures. At the end of each round, it assesses your judgement, intuition, concentration, recognition, and stability. It then rates you at the end of each round on how quickly you completed the challenges and how well you drew your circles.

The head to head function is good for a few laughs as well. In the download play, if you find yourself behind, quickly tap the lower right corner to cover your opponents screen with frogs or other wacky things. This gives you a chance to catch up, not only by screwing up that round for them, but also the next one as they will still be laughing over the giant frogs. There are 2 other multi-player games, yet both people would need the game so we didn’t get to try that out.

All in all, this is a great little time waster that’s a lot of fun. Think a WarioWare puzzle game. The only real downside to this game is that there is no hint or help function. While it doesn’t degrade the game at all, it would have been nice to include as some of the puzzles can be quite busy. But, after a try or three, you can usually pick out that one thing you looked over for the past 5 minutes!

My score on this is a solid 4.5/5. Definitely, worth picking up and extremely hard to put down once you do!
