Clear It 5

Here’s a detailed overview of Clear It 5:

🎮 Game Overview

• Clear It 5 is a single‑player puzzle game developed by IteraLabs and released on August 22, 2019. (Steam Store)
• The game consists of 190 handcrafted puzzles, offering around 10 hours of gameplay. (GameTop.com)
• The core mechanic: you have colored balls or orbs around the edges of the field, you shoot a ball inwards, and you aim to group like‑colored balls together so they vanish. (Steam Store)

🧩 Key Gameplay Features

• No strict time limit: You can take your time to plan shots and angles. (GameTop.com)
• Variety of layouts: Boards become increasingly complex in terms of shape, angles and shot planning as you progress. (GameTop.com)
• Color‑matching and clearance: Clear all the balls or orbs from the center field by matching clusters of same color. (Shockwave.com)
• Simple rule set but ramping difficulty: Easy to learn, but mastering the angles and layouts provides challenge. (GameFools)

✅ Why You Might Like It

• If you enjoy strategic puzzle games that emphasise planning rather than speed, this is a good fit.
• A nice change from “swap‑3” match‑3 games: the mechanic is shooting from edges and clearing clusters, which gives a slightly different flavour.
• With 190 levels, there’s decent content for a casual puzzle experience.

⚠️ Things to Consider

• Although the mechanic is somewhat different, the core still revolves around color‑matching and clearance — if you’ve played many puzzle games you might not find it highly novel.
• The lack of timer makes it more relaxed — if you prefer games with fast pace or intense time pressure, this may feel too mellow.
• Limited narrative or meta‑game: The focus is on puzzle boards, not building, story‑drama or expansive simulation.
