Description
You’re a pirate on the search for treasure. Find all shiny gold blocks in treasure chests in various environments, including tropical islands, ships, mysterious caves, ancient ocean ruins and other lost places. But there’s a catch: The chests are locked by an advanced security mechanism and the only way to unlock them is by solving puzzles with lasers.
Gameplay
Your goal is to loot all treasures of the known world. To win a level, you must find all gold blocks in it.
You can walk around the level freely and take, place and rotate blocks. Mirrors, bombs, color mixers, skulls and many other special blocks assist (or hinder) you in your task. Use your wits to activate detectors, pull levers, ignite bombs and barricades to eventually break all the locks and take all the gold.

This game has greatly developed
I'm currently playing Lazarr, and it's just amazing! The pirate ambiente is nice in terms of landscape, decoration, colors, background music (short clips, but I enjoy them). Plus the cute hint parrot. Of course I'm glad pirates never had laser guns ;-)
The game logic is well tuned. It starts with an introduction into the tools. First levels are indeed trivial, difficulty raises slowly level by level. But that keeps you motivated. Later levels get tricky (the cave and the sunken ship took me two days each to solve). I like that you cannot save in-level. The levels are short enough to restart the next day. But I remember some levels were not difficult but just tedious (e.g., the level with the spirals of mirrors). I've not finished the game yet. But I don't expect bad surprises.
I found absolutely no bugs. It just works fine, no matter what crazy things you do with the lasers. Seems like all the bugs from the game Jam have been smoothed out. Something I really appreciate, that the game is still developing. Practically no dead ends (one in the bombs level, but that one is obvious).
All in all, very Wuzzy quality I enjoy again and again. Nice one. I'm also playing a similar, professional game, The Talos Principle (VR), which sure has nicer graphics but I'd say, Lazarr is better in terms of logic puzzles.
Very fun logic game
I was skeptical about Lazarr because of the old reviews saying it felt incomplete. But those reviews don’t reflect the current game at all. It’s extremely fun now, with really well-made levels that make you use logic to solve puzzles, it's both fun and engaging. Definitely a 10/10 from me. Don’t let outdated opinions stop you—this game has come a long way and is totally worth playing.
Polished and thoughtful Luanti game
I’m not really into puzzle games, but I decided to try this one since it had so many good reviews. Even though I haven’t finished it yet, I think it’s well made and definitely above Luanti’s usual average quality.
I really like the sound design, and the UX is surprisingly good: rotating mirrors is more intuitive than I expected thanks to the arrow overlay, and the pirate sense is actually useful in tight or disorienting areas. I also like that the ship itself works as the main menu; it makes everything feel more immersive, even if it’s a bit less straightforward than a standard menu.
The accessibility options, like patterns on lasers, are a thoughtful touch. The tutorial levels are simple and clear, and the mechanics feel intuitive: not too many, not too few. I’m not a puzzle expert, but the level design seems solid so far, and the difficulty curve feels reasonable. Any issues that might show up in later levels seem like they’d be easy to tweak.
Visually, both the UI and textures are mostly coherent. I’m not a huge fan of the font nor of some of the textures and color choices (a lot of the shading and contrast feels a bit off or too flat), but overall it works, and I do really like the custom hotbar.
The detailed in-game credits are another cool and considerate detail, they make it clear that the author has put a lot of effort into this.
Overall, it’s just nice to see a complete, polished, well-thought-out game on Luanti. We really need releases like this to keep the content ecosystem alive and growing.
Good job!
It has improved a lot
I love it (lazarr has changed a LOT since the game jam, you should replay it https://wuzzy.codeberg.page/Lazarr/), i have not finished the game yet but i believe i can give this a positive review already, i will update this as i go with the game
but:
many hours of fun
I've had quite a lot of fun trying to figure out the puzzles (though some of them are definitely very frustrating), i'm definitely looking forward to more puzzles coming out.
Puzzle Game About Mirrors and Lasers
I finished levels 1-8, and then went to the game page to submit my review and saw that there were only 10 levels, so I went back to finish the last 2, but the game doesn’t save and I didn’t want to play through levels 1-8 again. Pirate theme seems like an odd choice for a game about lasers, but I like it.
I would recommend this game if you like puzzle games.
Awkward, but not as far as jam entries go
I enjoyed the jail mirrors puzzle. Got stuck on "Kitchen" level, though. Up until this particular level, there were information signs few of which I used, and I never spent more than 5 minutes on anything except this awkward kitchen.
Huh, I guess players are valid to be infuriated with this Rotation Hook. Wouldn't be much of a deal if there was some overlay saying in which direction each control rotates, what to anticipate - or even better, just pick the direction yourself without additional clicks. If extra care is put into this tool, there shall be a good boost for the game.
Some things were fun to discover on my own, as a result of me not giving a thorough read to Help manuals. They feel like fandom wiki, except the game readily spoils itself to the player. It's not inherently bad, simply my immersion didn't linger for long.
I wish the pirate theme was more prevalent and explained, because some levels just put me off and there is barely any lore. I'm really missing this mysterious aura like I've had in your other game, Glitch. But don't let this put you off, story can be lateral rather than integral.
To be honest, didn't have time to check the level editor. I'll leave it for dessert!
Love this game!
Very cozy atmosphere of the rooms
Simple chill puzzle game
Simple puzzle game (might have an educative purpose to teach how reflection works to kids ?)
Funny game
The game lacks a way to save yor progress :/EDIT: fixed later
