Bends is the penultimate level pack in the game and the last level pack that features new designs.
About 1/3rd of the levels in Bends also feature corner shadows – though they are less prominent than the designs in any of the packs that exclusively feature corner shadows.
It’s the last pack with new designs for a reason – it might be the hardest pack in the game, and definitely the hardest pack where the edges of the board are mostly rectangular.
The relatively straight lines make the solutions resemble Illusions the most – though the featured design from Pyramids might bear even more resemblance.
In addition to being challenging – we think they look really great too. If you want a cool visual, stay on a level after you pass it (click outside the Level Complete dialog) and clear the line longest line.
