Devious Designs

About

Devious Designs casts you as a secret agent fixing landmarks twisted into cubes by a bizarre weapon. Navigate levels by walking on walls, hauling objects, and firing at obstacles while solving geometric puzzles. The main challenge involves snapping floating shape fragments into glowing slots within a timer. Each level ramps up the pressure with tighter time limits trickier arrangements and enemies that disrupt your progress. Power-ups offer temporary boosts but careful planning matters more than brute force. This 1991 title stands out for its clever fusion of platforming and logic puzzles. The time constraints add urgency to its brain-teasing core while the password system lets you jump back in quickly. Running on Amiga and Atari ST/STE it showcases early 90s ingenuity with its wall-walking mechanics and layered challenges. Though its pixelated visuals feel dated the tight puzzle design still holds up for fans of old-school thinking games.
