Circuitous ® is a simple minimalist action/reflexes puzzle game where the objective is to get your arrow through the concentric rings to the middle. The problem, of course, is a bunch of rotating obstacles, meaning you have to dodge and negotiate the maze of static and moving obstacles to succeed. That's all there is to this, a shallow experience to rival Super Hexagon and other time wasting games with less than 5 minutes worth of interest.
From a technical perspective, the game doesn't meet basic minimum requirements that most PC gamers expect as standard.
While there are options to change the resolution for the game, all this does is scale up the simplistic 2D art assets used to make the game, which makes little or no difference to the graphics quality. Without any other substantial graphics tweaks, it's not possible for gamers to improve the lacklustre 2D visuals.
The game features extremely lazy, minimalist "art", of the type you normally expect to see in low effort Flash/browser games and mobile apps. Considering this is being evaluated as a PC game, having the graphics phoned in like this isn't going to result in a high quality, visually impressive game that PC gamers are used to seeing.
The controls can't be customised, which will be an annoyance for many, but it can also render the game unplayable for differently-abled gamers, left handed gamers or gamers using AZERTY or other international keyboard layouts.
The very poor quality of this game puts it squarely on-par with ancient 1990's Flash/Java games, and given it's 2024 (and this was released not so far back in 2019), gamers and the industry expect and deserve better than this kind of low effort shovelware.
These technical defects push this game below acceptable standards for any modern PC game.
The poor quality of this game is reflected by how many people spent time with it. At the time of this review, SteamDB shows the all-time peak player number was only 3 players. This is a remarkably low number, and now, the only player activity occurs once or twice a month, presumably someone loading it up to see what it is then quickly uninstalling it. Considering there's over 120 million gamers on Steam and well over 110,000 games for gamers to choose from, the overwhelming lack of interest in this low quality game is to be expected.
So, should you buy this game? Is this one of the best of the 110,000+ games on Steam?
Circuitous ® is relatively cheap at $4 USD, but it's not worth it. Given the defects and quality issues with the game, coupled with the unrealistic price, this is impossible to recommend. This is also competing with over 14,000 free games available on Steam, many of them far better than this paid product.
The worst game in my account
Too simple, boring and not fun at all.
This game is worth 1$ at best.
Challenging but fun. Has about 20% puzzle and the other 80% is up to your reflexes.
Worth the price.
After completing 30+ levels, I have one negative.
There is a short input delay (less than 1 second).
Whether this was intended as part of the gameplay or not, I felt that it was more frustrating than simply challenging.

This game is highly engaging and can be very addictive. The levels get harder quicker and when you think you got it you just might not! It's a well designed puzzle game.
Love the music and the gameplay! It provides a good challenge and is addictive. I would recommend it if you like a good indie game!
