Our Expert Score

85/100

Archaica: The Path of Light is an exceptionally beautiful puzzle game that focuses on the manipulation of light through ancient, crumbling ruins. The core mechanic involves placing mirrors, splitters, and color converters to guide lasers to their targets. While the 'laser puzzle' genre is crowded, Archaica stands out through its incredible atmosphere and world-building.

Each level feels like a piece of a forgotten history, with lore hidden in hieroglyphs for those who care to look. The puzzles scale perfectly in difficulty, introducing new artifacts like teleports and Tesseracts just as you master the basics. It’s a slow, methodical experience that rewards patience and logic, wrapped in a presentation that is among the best in the genre on the App Store.
