GeoMind is a game by Joshua Cole from Silver Island Media, the same folks behind Quantum Jump that looks quite simple and evens sounds very simple the game is described as ” re-create the shape by connecting a series of dots via the connected path and the only rule is you cannot cross the same path twice ” .. many of us will go pfft.. I can beat that game quite easily.. and that is true for the first few levels and then you start to go hmmm I think the developer has included a level which can not be completed and after many tries you still end up with one path that can’t be used and eventually after a while you figure out that it can be done, after 5 minutes you go back to that level and you are at square one, you will have no clue as to how you solved it. But is it a good thing ?

In our opinion GeoMind is a nice brain teaser for windows Phone 7 , it offers some complex puzzles, after the initial few levels you might find yourself trying to solve a really complex one and then some easy ones again , I kind of felt there is no clear progression in the complexity of the puzzle. But this could be partly coz I might get lucky and choose the correct path at the first attempt for some specific puzzle thus making it look easy and if I try to solve it at a later time I might be stuck at it for a while. There are some situation where you just feel so frustrated coz you are unable to clear the puzzle. That is when you wish , only if there were a hint button … which I think will make the game attractive to many more users.

One great thing about GeoMind is the ability to download, in-game, map updates which are free of charge, the developer can push out extra map packs and when its available you get an update button in the menu, you can click on it and the maps are automatically added, but there is no indication of how may new levels are added. GeoMind offers a trial mode which gives the user access to 6 maps and then there are more than 31 maps in the paid version, and with map updates this number will go up.
