eXiTS #AtoZChallenge

I recently asked if you have any games you regularly play on your phone.

I tend to stick with puzzle-type games, but I like to keep at least one nonsense, brain-relaxing game on my phone. 

Recently I came across a new game - and this is NOT a sponsored post - called "EXiTS". It appeared to be puzzle-y, but more fun. It's about eXiting from a place. Each game is a new location, with new puzzles to figure out. Good for a puzzler, right?

No. I mean, it's intriguing, and I've played it daily since I downloaded it, but I need to use the hints in almost every puzzle.

I do sudoku, crosswords, "brain" games... but this one stumps me all the time. Like there will be a robot with a triangle, square and circle on his chest, and you need to remember the order or position, because sooner or later you will find a box whose lock needs to be tapped in the order of the shapes. Very weird.

Well, I'm still playing it, and since eXits has an "X" and begins with the right sound, I'm borrowing it for my X post. 

Not necessarily advocating this game unless you love brain-teasers. I'll be very intrigued to see how everyone else filled their "X" requirement!

    1. It is fun, even if I have to cave and ask for the hints on a regular basis. My mind just doesn't go down those roads! The game I eliminated before adding this one was a Logic Puzzle game. Much more my speed, but the icons were getting too tiny as I advanced. Hard to see. So... different puzzles! Mind-benders.

  2. I've never heard of this app. I think my husband might like it.

    1. I think it's based on the concept of Exit Rooms? I had my husband join me on one level yesterday, and he got the puzzles much more quickly than I did.

  3. I bet you'll get better at it, the more you play. It's training your brain to look at things in a different way, but that takes time.

    1. Yeah, I think I am, a bit. Each level has 3 escapes, and now I can usually get at least the first one without a hint. But each level also gets harder, too.

I enjoy a good debate. Feel free to shake things up. Tell me I'm wrong. Ask me why I have such a weird opinion. ...or, just laugh and tell how this relates to you and your life.
