Linear!

Linear! is an arcade-puzzle game for iOS that launched in February 2017. The game appears to occupy a niche in mobile gaming focused on straightforward, linear design - a philosophy that contrasts with current industry trends toward more expansive play spaces. Recent coverage discussing open-world design in other titles like Onimusha: Way of the Sword highlights how developers continue to balance linear and non-linear approaches to level design, suggesting Linear!'s focused methodology remains a viable alternative in an increasingly open-ended gaming landscape.
