YANKAI’S TRIANGLE is a love letter to TRIANGLES. A puzzling puzzle game about the beauty and joy of infinitely tapping on TRIANGLES for some reason.
With an elegant innovative revolutionary TRIANGLE-first approach to interface, YANKAI’S TRIANGLE lets you tap on TRIANGLES to spin them and stuff. Colors play a part in gameplay too I think. Bring TRIANGLES to a forgotten TRIANGLE, and uncover a TRIANGLE hidden deep beneath the YANKAI.
- Pretty Fun Gameplay (it’s all right)
- No Filler – A Veritable Infinity of Meticulously Definitely Handcrafted TRIANGLES
- Over 1.74 x 10^26 Possible Levels (all definitely handcrafted)
- Color
- An Inscrutable Three-Pronged Scoring System
- A ‘Happy Sounds’ Option (woohoo!)
- A ‘Colorblind’ Option if You Are Colorblind (it’s not great tbh)
- A Cool Film Grain Effect
- A Cool Tiled TRIANGLE Background Effect
- Also there are Achievements

From the About
"A Cool Film Grain Effect" - This is the worst part about this game, film grain is a dreadful effect.
Other than that, the store page is pretty accurate as to what the game is; you rotate triangles until colours match & you make bigger triangles.
It has both ominous & happy soundtracks & it gradually gets more complex as more triangles need building upon triangles which might require you to backtrack & untriangle triangles you've made into triangles before in order to combine the triangles into different triangles to make the correct triangles later on.
There are plenty of triangles, if you're into that.
Also points for Store Page honesty:
"A 'Colorblind' Option if You Are Colorblind (it's not great tbh)", I agree, borderline unplayable as it doesn't replace the colours with a range of colours that colorblind people can see properly, it replaces them with shapes which are too similar & it plays atrociously, if that was the main mode I would have returned it.
"Pretty Fun Gameplay (it's all right)", that's this review in a nutshell; this isn't Tumblestone or Hook, 2 of my favourite puzzle games ever but it's okay.
If you aren't colourblind, it's a pretty okay time.

If you've ever wanted to spin triangles, you've come to the right game. It has all the triangles and you can spin all of them.
It's strangely addicting, although I'm not sure the game has a definite end. What's the point of the counters if it never ends?

Interesting concept for a puzzle game. For $3 not bad. If the achievements are to believed there are a lot of puzzles, and for me personally they started to get challenging around level 20 or so.

A relaxing, not too difficult puzzle game that's worth its price. Possibly procedurally generated? Not 100% sure; I stopped when I got the last achievement, as no end looked in sight. A good time nonetheless.

I'm not trying to be ironically on the nose by saying this: This game is about how to look at triangles. Once you've figured it out most levels are pretty much the same. The store page is it's own best review. The game is okay. The worst part about the game, as many have mentioned, is the visual grain effect. If the game just had flat colors I may consider playing this to the perscribed 3^5 power levels but instead I stopped at 3^3 and am going to call it there. I like the game but I just REALLY don't like looking at it.

Great little casual puzzle game.
The puzzles are randomly generated (with a total of 1.74 x 10^26 possible levels), but they're still really fun and feel really well designed. The gameplay at the start is pretty easy to understand and new mechanics are added regularly to keep it fresh and make it more and more complicated as you progress.
The artstyle and sound design isn't for everyone, with the weird music and visual noise, but I personnally really liked it! It has some kind of strange creepy vibe that makes it very different from other casual puzzle games.
Overall I really enjoyed this game. It isn't too complicated, but it also doesn't hold your hand, you have to figure out the new mechanics by yourself. It's also infinite, the levels aren't too long, and getting in the game is pretty quick, so even after getting all the achievements it's still a fun game that you can launch once in a while to play for a couple of minutes.

YANKAI’S TRIANGLE is like drinking your favorite cold beverage on a nice, sunny day. It’s refreshing.
It’s like chilling out with a couple buds while your favorite tunes play quietly in the background. It’s relaxing.
It’s like having a summer fling. Satisfying and you never want it to end.
It evokes the same feeling you get from watching fireworks explode right in front of your eyes. It’s beautiful and, somehow, oddly compelling.
It’s all these things and more.
Though, at its core, it’s a delightful, little puzzle game that’s not too demanding on your thought particles. Yet, it still packs enough bite to entertain. Much like your favorite summer blockbuster.
YANKAI’S TRIANGLE is about triangles. You rotate them until they eventually click. I never knew that this could be as emotional as it is. Yet, here I am getting depressed at a bunch of candy-colored, rotating triangles.
It’s a metaphor for life, essentially. You’re going to have to rotate through things until something eventually clicks. Eventually, that rotation will get interrupted; it’ll get more difficult and things won’t click as easily. You’ll keep rotating though because you’re brave. You continue rotating until it clicks so you can grow and expand. And you won’t stop this cycle until the end comes; but when does it end? And where? And what happens when it does? Easy, you start the game over again because it’s just that good.
