CROSSNIQ+ (CROSS-neek plus) is a speed-focused, arcade-style puzzle game inspired by "y2k-era" visual design - a tribute to highly polished, small-scope Japanese games from the late 90's.
Players slide colored tiles across a grid, wrapping around edges to create perfect crosses - intersecting horizontal and vertical lines of matching hues. This mechanic transforms simple tile movement into a brain-bending spatial challenge.
Four distinct experiences challenge players: Endless Mode (survive by crafting continuous crosses), Time Attack (maximize points within crisp 1-5 minute windows), Chillout Mode (pressure-free exploration of grid dynamics), and Versus Mode (local multiplayer puzzle combat).
The design rewards precision and speed through simultaneous multi-row/column manipulation, strategic navigation of locked and "X" blocking tiles, rapid cross creation for exponential scoring, and split-second adaptive decision-making.
Challenges intensify as grids expand from compact 6x6 to sprawling 16x16 configurations, intrusive special tiles multiply, and movement speed requirements become punishing.
Flexible input methods include mouse, keyboard, and controller, with customizable visual and color palettes. The arcade-style design emphasizes lightning-fast cognition and offers a remarkable depth inviting continuous skill improvement.
Ultimately, this puzzler demands quick thinking, spatial intelligence, and rhythmic tile choreography within a vibrant Y2K aesthetic.
