Artifact - 3D puzzle

Pretty simple game concept: put the pieces of an antique pottery or figure back together. That's all. The controls work pretty well, the look is clean, the animations and effects are nice and everything is surprisingly polished.

There is an easy and hard mode, but the hard mode ist still pretty easy. Some of the later puzzles are a tiny bit more challenging, but still take a couple of minutes at most. If you like archeology or art history or just want to turn your brain off for a moment, you might enjoy this game.

My suggestions for improvement are:
- extra hard mode, for example where the pieces don't rotate into the right position automatically
- if you pick up a piece the other pieces should disappear/ become half transparent, so you can see what you're doing
- after completing a puzzle it would be nice to get a gallery mode where you can just look at the art, maybe even without the cracks

An appealing and relaxing 3D jigsaw game, dedicated to the crafts of ancient cultures. There are vases and other vessels, busts, statues and figurines. 8 cultures are represented, with 8 puzzles in each culture and you can play them in any order.
