Gameplay tips
Build simple and smart structures to reach your objective
Although the challenges in-game appear simple, they need out of the box thinking.
Players must be mindful of the amount of ink they use to build the structures. It shows up in a bar at the top of the screen; lesser ink means more stars.
It is better if players build balanced structures so that they can support the glass from falling.
Game features
Minimalist games are easy on the eyes
As mentioned earlier, Happy Glass takes a minimalist approach.
Accordingly, the game has few features. There are coins which players make as they cross levels.
They can use these to buy different pencils, and liquid colors.
Certain in-app purchases are available, which players can buy in-game coins with real currency.
The simple layout makes it attractive and easy on the eyes.
Opinion
Will Happy Glass make you happy?
If you like puzzle-solving, this game offers many unique levels to test yourself.
However, there are ads popping up in between levels, which disrupt the flow.
The simple layout and low graphics mean that the game is light on the phone's software.
Though Happy Glass begins with a challenging tone, players might eventually find it repetitive.
Nonetheless, the game is worth checking out.
