Pipeline

Editors' ReviewDownload.com staffAugust 20, 2015This puzzle game proves that playing plumber is trickier than it sounds. In Pipeline, your job is to connect pieces of pipe to form a complete circuit before the time expires. You choose different-shaped pieces of pipe from the left-hand pane to connect other pipe sections that are already on the board. After a certain amount of time, water will start flowing, and if your pipeline isn't complete, you won't move onto the next level. Even on the easiest difficulty setting, we had a tough time getting past the second board, so we can imagine it will take a while to truly become adept at this game. Pipeline provides an acceptable number of user-customization options, letting you play in windowed mode and adjust the volume and sound effects to your linking. This program's rather primitive graphics aren't likely to blow any minds, but this is by no means a dealbreaker. If you're looking for a mind-bending, pipe-fitting good time, you should definitely have a look at this puzzler.
