Grindstone is a uniquely designed "color matching" puzzle game that I originally played on Apple Arcade about four years ago. When I found out it was on Steam and I got a Steam Deck, it felt like it was time to double dip.

I absolutely adore this game, it's fun with it's various loadouts and variety of challenges. I went through and completed all the achievements and just about all of the levels. I'm going to take a break on the "grind" of this game, but I am keeping it installed as it's data footprint is really small and it's perfect for quick little play sessions.

The game is fun and a great time sink. Puzzles aren't too challenging, but the way the embroidery and puzzle mixture is presented is very fun. After a while, you will notice patterns and it'll becoming incredibly easy even on the largest/hardest difficulty. The game gets a lot of new patterns added as of the time of this review and is available through Apple Arcade if you are a subscriber to that service.

Cloudpunk is atmospheric and engaging throughout. The worldbuilding, storytelling, and overall feel of this game is just plain excellent. I'd been struggling to play story-based games for some time lately but I think this is the one that will break my plateau. I miss unique designs and characters in short-form titles like this. It's my first story-based game I've completed in a long time, but it absolutely earned it's right to do so.

Also this was almost exclusively played on my Steam Deck in Medium settings at 40fps. I used my main PC for cleaning up some achievements. Game runs very well on Steam Deck and is a blast on the go.
