Product Description
Try your hand at the newest puzzle game to hit the Nintendo DS with NEVES. Published by Yukes, NEVES captures all the fun and mind-bending challenges of the classic Japanese game Hanayama's Lucky Puzzle and places it on the quirky and revolutionary Nintendo DS. Focusing on the cognizant gameplay of the mature puzzle audience, each puzzle in NEVES features seven wood blocks that must be aligned to match a corresponding silhouette. Shapes can range from simple items like a key or chair to more complicated objects such as birds and airplanes. And with the innovative controls of the Nintendo DS it's as easy as ever to position your pieces, but solving some of the puzzles is anything but! ESRB Rated E for Everyone

 QUIT SMOKING !!! October 4, 2008
This sounds totally wierd for this kind of genre, however if you are trying to quit (or cut down), this game is perfect. It is challenging, but you can do it while watching TV or not. IT KEEPS YOUR HANDS AND MIND BUSY!!!
I have found the DS in general, and many others, (Mario stuff, Zelda, Brain Age, puzzle games etc.) to calm me down from high anxiety days at work. I am 50 years old and would not go to a Dr.'s office or the DMV without it. It makes you feel good. And smokers, good luck!!!
 It was great for awhile July 22, 2008

It was challenging in the beginning. Most people I handed it over to couldn't figure it out. You have to think very spatially. After awhile you learn that some of the shapes can only fit in certain places and that helps. I think people will either find it too tedious or eventually too repetitious. But if you are looking for a good puzzle game then it is great for short bursts.
 Great "Eureka!" game, and I finally "got" the title.... July 18, 2008

It's amazing that this game has so many puzzles that use the same seven pieces. Even though one piece is a pretty big honker and you can usually figure out where it goes pretty quick, it's trying to fit the remaining pieces that's so much maddening fun.
A couple times you may even think to yourself that a particular puzzle is impossible to solve with those seven pieces, but then when the solution finally dawns on you, you'll have an "Eureka!" moment that makes the game well worth playing and well worth the price.
Just watch the video and you'll know if it's your type of game - but you probably won't find this one locally and the publisher is obscure, so you may want to grab it while it's available...
Plus, if you've been wondering where they got the name "NEVES" from, it should become clear after reading the manual (that's when you'll probably have a "D'oh" moment).
Minus one star overall for the music - like another review said, you'll soon turn it off.

I like puzzles and strategy games, so this was perfect for me. There are three different modes, the first you have unlimited time and moves to figure out where the pieces go, the second you have 3 minutes to figure it out, and the third you have to move the piece where you think it should go and then you can't touch it again. If you are wrong you have to start over again.
Its pretty entertaining and hard to put down. I played it until I beat it, for a week straight.

I purchased this thinking it would probably either be not challenging enough or would be frustrating -- i.e. puzzles too hard to be fun or that would be timed so that I'd have to keep trying the same puzzle over & over again until I beat a time-clock.
While there is an optional time-challenge mode, this is actually a nice litle leisurely puzzle game. I'm a 40-something who is used to 'doing' something on the evenings my spouse & I watch TV -- I'm usually paying bills or catching up on family emails or whatever -- and this little game gives me something to do with my brain when I don't have other pressing things to handle during TV-time.
I'm about half-way thru Level 2, and it's still pretty easy, but occasionally you do get a head-scratcher and have been pleasantly surprised at how this game makes you approach a problem in different ways.
Knowing about it as I now do, I would definitely have still made the purchase.
