About Photon Engineer
Photon Engineer is a puzzle game set in 2075. After a space probe discovers a strange platform floating near Jupiter, the government funds a mission to send you there. You investigate why the platform exists and who built it, uncovering information as you progress.
Solve the puzzles
You build systems from blocks with different abilities. Some blocks deflect or merge laser beams, while others turn or push blocks. Laser puzzles alternate with sliding puzzles that call for strategic moves. The game includes 95 puzzles: 45 laser puzzles and 50 sliding puzzles, each with a different idea.
Explore the platform
You discover 40 levels, described as platforms, as you delve deeper into the unknown. There are also 20 puzzle achievements that extend the game experience. Symbols mark all lasers for colorblind players.
