Neon Noodles is a puzzle game where you build things on an assembly line, set in a bleak future. You’re tasked with making lots of different food items, but despite the appealing idea, the game isn’t very satisfying to play.
The game revolves around creating automated systems on a grid to complete recipes as quickly and effectively as possible.
Sometimes you might need to make something like fried rice, which means prepping the rice, veggies, and chicken, then combining everything to finish the dish.
It’s up to you how you complete the task. You’ll have robots that can move around and grab things, as well as stations for cooking. You can program the robots by showing them exactly what you want them to do.
You’re basically creating a set of instructions to solve each puzzle, and the aim is to do it using as few steps and as little space as possible.
The game uses a familiar style of play, and Neon Noodles does a decent job with it. Everything is represented by simple, bright neon shapes, which makes it easy to see what’s going on, and it’s enjoyable to find the best strategy for each level.
However, playing with a controller feels awkward, the game’s difficulty fluctuates unpredictably, and things get confusing as the puzzles become more complicated.
The menus can be tricky to navigate, and the controls take some getting used to because there are so many features. It’s clear the game was originally designed for a mouse and keyboard, and while they’ve tried to adapt it for a controller, it doesn’t feel completely natural.
This game has the potential to be really good, but several problems hold it back from becoming the addictive puzzle experience we expected.
