Cross-Colors is a novel and intellectually stimulating puzzle game developed by Holotronix srl. Available for Windows XP, 10, and 11, this game is currently at its latest version, 1.0.0.1, with previous versions including 1.0, and 1. As part of the Puzzle subcategory under Games, Cross-Colors brings an engaging twist to the traditional idea of matching colors.

The central mechanic of Cross-Colors involves changing the colors on a row or column to match them. Players can move tiles by dragging with the left mouse button or change the row/column colors with the right button, adding a strategic element that's perfect for stimulating and training the brain. Unlike permutation games such as Sam Lloyd's puzzle or the Rubik's cube, the mathematics behind Cross-Colors differ, focusing more on logical color transformations rather than permutations.

To enhance the gaming experience, dimensions and the number of colors can be customized via Edit > Dimensions and Edit > Colors options, respectively. For keyboard players, arrow keys can change the line's colors, while holding down Shift or Control alters cursor movements and line tiles respectively. This flexibility ensures every game is winnable, as mathematically proven.

Holotronix has designed multiple versions of the X-Colors game, all adhering to the same rules but offering varied strategies to heighten player enjoyment. The game file for this latest version is named XColors1.exe and is available for download to offer a free trial period before purchase.

Pros:

  • Unique puzzle mechanics that differ from other matching or permutation games.
  • Customizable dimensions and color counts.
  • Proven every game is winnable, ensuring fairness.
  • Available for multiple versions of Windows OS.

Cons:

  • The intellectual demand may not appeal to those seeking more casual gameplay.
  • Limited to Windows operating systems only.

In summary, Cross-Colors by Holotronix srl offers an innovative and enjoyable way to both challenge and build intelligence. With its unique mechanisms and customizable features, it provides a refreshing take on the classic puzzle genre.
