“A place for everything, and everything in its place,” is the unspoken motto of A Little to the Left.  It’s a game full of slots that have been perfectly sized for the right object to fit in, be it a battery or a button.  Colour-coordinated bookshelves and leaves with perfectly matching holes await in what is surely an organization nerd’s dream.  Every level requires you to place objects so they slot together in a satisfying way, whether it’s by carefully sorting them or creating symmetrical designs.  Yet it’s also a game about letting go of that desire for perfection and accepting a bit of chaos, in this case taking the form of a mischievous cat who loves to mess with your meticulous patterns.  It’s an interesting dichotomy, one which saw me cursing the wretched feline to high heaven at the outset, but then gradually warming up to it by the end.  It’s an odd puzzler, in that it causes reflection as much on the solution being undone as it does on the steps taken to complete it.  I think it’s for the best, though, as it kept me consistently engaged and enjoying my time with it from start to finish.
