Editor review
Ring Master is a spatial-puzzle arcade game where you rotate concentric rings to align a coloured dot path from the centre of the play field to the outer edge. Each ring has a notch in a different position, and rotating one ring shifts the notch around the circle. Align all the notches and the dot flows through to the next puzzle.
This is a genre I don't see much of in the browser arcade scene. The basic puzzle works because rotation is satisfying as a UI gesture and the spatial reasoning gets harder as more rings are added. The 100-level campaign builds well: 3-ring puzzles to start, up to 7-ring puzzles by the late stages. Timer-pressure rounds and "blocked notch" variations break the pattern occasionally.
Where it loses a half-star for me is the level variety. The 100 levels are all essentially the same puzzle with different geometries. After 20 of them you've seen the design space. The four-star rating is for execution. I'd give it a flat five if the campaign were 30 levels long instead of 100, because the existing 100 dilute the early ones.
