Splitter Critters is a cute puzzle game from the creators of the Dark Echo project, where you need to control not one character, but the entire level at once, by swiping “cutting” the location and mixing parts to solve the puzzle. In this game, you need to help funny little aliens to find their ship to fly home.

Aliens move on their own and have their own behavior, you just need to guide them to their destination by swiping the screen and moving parts in such a way as to pave the way to the goal. As you move to the last levels, you will have to cut the world more often in order to rearrange the fragments as needed. You only have the ability to make three cuts, so the levels never get too difficult, making Splitter Critters playable by players of all skill levels.

The game mechanics are simple but effective. All you need to do is swipe across the screen in any direction while holding and adjusting the pieces. As soon as you release your finger, the pieces will snap together and you can make another cut. You can also roll back cuts and make new ones.

Despite its simple mechanics, Splitter Critters is an addicting game. For example, some aliens march forward, despite any obstacles, others turn back when they meet a ledge, someone is vulnerable to enemies, and someone breaks right through them. At times, keeping the little aliens together is quite difficult, almost like collecting scattering kittens, and this is without considering the actual obstacles in the level. Some of them are lethal, such as fire pits and lasers, while others are only slightly annoying. When the characters die, you will need to restart the level, and you can do this an unlimited number of times.

The game currently offers over 50 levels plus a few bonus levels. There are five worlds in Splitter Critters, and the difficulty level increases gradually, and the real heat begins only closer to the fourth world. But the last world offers a new mechanic that will force you to use your abilities to distort levels. According to the description of the game in the App Store, the developers promise to add more levels in the future and one can only hope that they will fulfill their promise.

If you've played Dark Echo before, the Splitter Critters' design will surprise you. The game has a soft, cute and vibrant visual style with great music. The controls are intuitive and well suited to mobile devices.
Splitter Critters is a resourceful, well-made, and most importantly, fun game that you don't want to postpone. It's pretty short, but if you want something fun with a horsey dose of charm, you won't regret choosing Splitter Critters.
