    (I've beaten at least 20 sets at this point.)

    “LYNE” is a logic-based abstract puzzle game where you draw color-coded lines through nodes.

    With the simple but elegant visual aesthetics provided by the flat colors and spacious canvas, as well as a soundscape that consists of merely a gong and a pan flute, there is little to distract players from the gameplay, resulting in a nice mellow experience.

    The controls are as intuitive as they can get, allowing to stop and resume the drawing of the lines, redo parts of or a whole line, and even switch colors in-between. This makes modifying a previous line to include that one node fairly easy.

    The difficulty rises moderately as new node types are introduced, and it gets a bit daunting by the time the four-point cross-section nodes come into play. But with mere practice the difficulty seems to quickly decrease considerably, such that it becomes less trial-and-error and more actual planning and partially seeing the paths and loops.

    Furthermore, the daily puzzles provide a randomized challenge, ranging from easy to "haven't even unlocked that yet" difficulty levels.

    I think it's a great game to pass the time or engage your brain in light logic exercises. But it's nothing particularly deep, and playing too many levels in succession can get a bit boring.
