Howdy y’all!

Check out my TikTok @samplearcade for shorter videos you won’t find on YouTube!

We’re back with another Apple Arcade title and this time it’s “Illustrated”! Illustrated is a unique puzzle game that immerses you in beautiful illustrations and the stories behind them.
Each puzzle begins with an illustration represented as an early concept sketch, paired with the concealed words of the artist's story behind their work of art.

Your objective is to solve the puzzle, strategically using both sides - illustration and story! With every correctly-placed piece, the illustration comes alive with color while the words of the story are slowly revealed. Upon completion, the full-color masterpiece and story are revealed together in unity.

This is a pretty soothing jigsaw game. I enjoy the concept of the music reacting every time I placed a piece, but for the first puzzle that stopped halfway through. When it works it does add a relaxing layer to the game.

Now featuring Van Gogh puzzles by the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam! Learn about Van Gogh and his artwork and experience these masterpieces in a way never experienced before.

Overall it’s a fun, relaxing jigsaw game that you’ll really enjoy if you do these IRL. I’d love to hear your thoughts in this title or any other Apple Arcade game you’d like to see.

Until next time!
