Sand Castle - Prelude: The Faded Memories (2010)

by ArcShock Game Studio

Sand Castle - Prelude: The Faded Memories is the physics-based puzzle game featuring 15 levels. The goal in each is to open the door. In order to do it you must direct the sputtering sand onto button (or more buttons) which opens the door if the pressure is strong enough. At your disposal you have various tools, like scales and gravity fields. Some levels have more than one solution.

There are plans to release the extended version of game as commercial title.

  Nice concept, good atmosphere (mainly because of the music) and the game mechanics work quite well. But on the other hand it is too short and too easy to solve to be regarded as a complete game. Might be ok, because it is only the prelude (demo would be the right term in my eyes).
  
  I'm not sure if I would buy that game, but I would probably play it if it comes along with one of the indie bundles some day in the future.

  I like this game the same way i like Crayon Physics. It has a good atmosphere. And the particle physics is also not something you see very often in video games.

  Its a short game, but it is good.
  You can still do a game like this with running water. I would play that too. Its kind of fun with this type of puzzle where it isn't a ball or a ray of some sorts that you need to guide but something less solid like sand (or water).

  Wow!!!
  I swear, I was JUST thinking of doing that!!!
  Although mine was Deflektor with running water, but pretty much the same thing.
  
  Looks fun.

  I just saw this game in one of our ads from Project wonderful and decided to go to the site to see what it was. The game is/was featured at e3 in 2010 and is developed by an indie developer project called Arcshock. Arcshock consists of a Korean husband and wife with over 20 years of game development experience combined.
