Brain It On
Brain It On - Physics Puzzle That Actually Makes You Think
Stumbled across this one while browsing puzzle games and honestly? Expected another mindless time-waster. Boy, was I wrong. Brain It On throws physics-based challenges at you that'll make your brain hurt in the best possible way. You literally draw shapes to solve puzzles - sounds simple until you're staring at level 15 wondering how the hell to get that ball into the basket.
Released on 01.01.2023 and got a major update on 05.20.2025, this thing keeps evolving. What hooked me wasn't just the drawing mechanic - it's that each puzzle has multiple solutions. Makes you feel like a genius when you find some weird workaround the developers probably never intended.
How to Play
Simple concept that gets diabolical fast. You draw shapes, lines, whatever comes to mind to solve each puzzle. Need to knock something over? Draw a ramp. Ball won't roll? Sketch a wall to redirect it. The physics engine responds to everything you scribble, which leads to some hilarious failures and "aha!" moments.
