Eloh is a rhythm puzzle game created by Broken Rules, based out of Austria in 2018. The games central objective is to move randomly placed totems into position, to ricochet pulsing sound orbs to there intended color indicated destination. Once in the correct position, the sound orbs will bounce between the totems to create a surreal and smoothing beat. With more varying totem combinations, and elements that can change the sound orbs trajectory, the possible sounds you’ll experience will make completing the puzzles themselves that much more meaningful.

For people that enjoy gaming with headphones, or at least own a pair of decent headphones, I can’t recommend this game enough. This games audio design is isolating in the most dream-inspiring way. Even in the process of solving the puzzle you are met with the sensational “tings“ and “dongs“ of what appears to be African or indigenous drums. No two puzzles are the same, which means no two melodies are either.

From the totems, to the transitional scenes, everything is designed beautifully. Ever asset in this game looks like a watercolor painting, which heightens the relaxing aspects of this game. It’s pleasing not only to the ears, but the eyes as well. The color palette of this game seems to be nothing but calming cool colors.

I have recommended this game to my wife, who is an avid reader. Some nights you feel like putting down the book, but still need something to get you in the sleepy time mood. This is that game. I don’t recommend rushing through this title. Space it out, and enjoy each level in its simplicity and entirety.
