Editor review
Socket Deduction is a constraint-satisfaction logic puzzle. Read clues; deduce the unique solution. Forty levels.
What works is the clue clarity. Each clue eliminates specific configurations; players who track eliminations methodically progress steadily.
Forty levels with clue-count and constraint-complexity escalating per level.
Tested over Ankara Metro commute sessions from Ankara. Touch and mouse input both work for the deduction format.
Where the game starts to feel thin is the campaign length. Forty levels is short for the format.
Where I would push back is the absence of a clue-history view. Players who lose track of which clues they have applied have to restart mental tracking.
Three stars. Functional deduction puzzle. Limited by length.
