Gabbuchi (2019)
h.a.n.d. Inc., Shanda
Gobble it all? Or in moderation, for progress's sake? "Gabbuchi", an action puzzle brain exercise game with simple controls. "Gabbuchi" is a curious creature that loves gobbling blocks and stuff. His favorite food is the heart cookie. In order to get it, you have to think about which blocks he can and can't gobble. He can gobble blocks the same color as himself. You can change his color, too, so he can gobble different colored blocks. Blocks that are a different color from Gabbuchi can also serve as supports to reach high places! The more Gabbuchi eats, the more satisfied he gets. But, if you make him eat too much he won't be able to get to his heart cookie, so you have to think carefully about what blocks he should and shouldn't eat! There are 180 stages awaiting Gabbuchi, ranging from easy to hard. With the included level editor, you can even make your own stages, so there's no end to all the ways you can satisfy Gabbuchi!

By Connor NicholsStill, dig deep and you’ll find a charming block puzzle platformer to play through, although there’s little else to note of and this puzzler isn’t anything that’s terribly innovative.

By Neal RonaghanGabbuchi has its issues, primarily due to the character’s floaty jump and frustrating hitbox, but the puzzles nearly break through the problems thanks to their thoughtful challenge and clever design. It falls short of the engrossing majesty of similar puzzlers, but I hope h.a.n.d. makes more interesting games such as this. It’d be nice to see what they’ve learned after years of working with other company’s creations.
