Venice is a Microsoft Windows puzzle game set in Venice and developed by Retro64 Games and PopCap Games.
Gameplay
The player moves a gondola that shoots treasure upward. The goal is to match each treasure with the slot that has the same shape. The slots are on plates on the side of a building. Plates come in varied shapes such as bars, circles, half-circles, T-shapes, and X-shapes.
When the level is completed, the player receives points for accuracy, speed and combos.
Game modes
The game includes four game modes:
- Journey: Basic gameplay
- Flood: An action mode in which the river level rises at a steady rate. Icons that splash in the water no longer cost the player.
- Survival: Flood mode, but a single building that never ends.
- Trick shots: Nothing but trick shots. The player is given a reward of 1,000 points for a successful trick shot, incrementing 1,000 points with each successful trick shot, and resetting to 1,000 after a failure.
There are a total of 72 buildings across eight neighborhoods.
