Interlocked - You know those puzzles consisting of wooden blocks that are impossible take apart? Then you know Interlocked. Each level, you’re given a unique 3D puzzle consisting of blocks that hold each other together. Take it apart and you'll feel ten times as smart! (SLFFF)

The pixel precision maneuvering you need for some levels is a little annoying though. Sorry about that. :(

I was playing this a couple of days ago. Really good game. Some of the puzzles are very tricky.

I pulled too hard and a little piece snapped off and now I think it's broken, crap, crap, dad probably paid like twenty bucks for this thing, maybe if I glue it...

I read the header and thought it was about blow and goes. Go figure.

Maybe if it were pink and purple and had some glittery stuff on it I'd like it better . . .

When I was a kid I loved, loved, loved these kind of spatial puzzles that they had at museum gift shops and such. I was at a friend's grandparents' house one day when I was eight or nine and they had one of those horseshoe puzzles where you have to get the ring off and I had been playing with it for probably twenty minutes, taking the ring off and putting it back on and doing all the constituent motions so that I could see exactly how it worked and why, and then my friend's grandfather came up to me (and had not, apparently, been watching me) and said 'I'll bet you five bucks you can't get that off in ten minutes.' I handed him the ring and he gave me a crisp $5. AND THUS MY CAREER IN POOLHALL HUSTLING WAS BORN

No demons, right? I don't want to end up opening a portal to hell again.

Whoa. Pretty sure I just spent like 20 minutes on this. Thanks.

I hope you know you killed an hour or two of my girlfriend's life. They're not coming back.

This is really cool because of the variety of puzzles. I spent easily a half hour just now playing, and I was about to pass out tired. But I gotta say, that the interface was so frustrating! Those locking puzzles really need more inputs than just mouse and spacebar.

Quite a pleasant diversion

This is really good. If they'd wanted to be even more evil, they could have put rotation in as a valid maneuver. I'm not sure I'm glad they didn't.

Rage-quitting this has left me very unsatisfied.
