  • Good game, very relaxing, but there’s a trick to it.

    By relaxing! find the trick!
    This was a very fun, relaxing game. My favorite kind of games are untimed puzzles and this totally delivers. I strongly recommend it. Note to players, and the game designers if they read this: about halfway through the game, I figured out “the trick” and almost all levels were trivial after that. Not saying what it is. Also, I completed level 140 and the game just ended. No fireworks, no extra levels, no Luigi, just back to the home screen. Kind of weird.

    My new favorite - logic puzzle, brain teaser, whatever you want to call it. Elegantly simple - perfect
  • Another classic Borderleap puzzler

    This one is easier to just swipe with less strategy than some of their other games. Whether that's a plus or minus depends on your style.

    Nice, thoughtful. A bit frustrating to get stuck and not be able to advance to try another level. And I don't see a map to skip to a level instead of tap tap tapping one by one. But otherwise very very nice design and playability.
  • Intriguing and captivating

    This is a seemingly simple game at first. You move the colored tiles around the highlighted playing field, in order to match the tiles of the same color to remove them. However, the big difference is using strategy to predict where the tiles will move to. That's because they ALL move at the same time to the edge of playing area, provided the way is clear. Almost like Tetris meets Chess! I wasn't going to download at first when I saw this in the app store. Glad I decided to take a chance on this quick time killer. It's not too deeply involved that you can't take a break, but it surprisingly draws you in and makes you want to complete the level. It will also help your brain by making you think ahead to visualize your move and where the tiles will land. You can reset the tiles if you made a mistake but you can't cheat. (Other than maybe Googling a walkthrough.) I like the soothing synthesized piano music which can be toggled off. The only issues I've found so far in the short time it took to level 20; The reset button area is sometimes difficult using. I've had to touch it repeatedly to work although it does play the recognized clicking sound. I totally agree with others that there should be a way to change tile colors for those players who are color-blind, like me. (At least I got it on a day it was free.) As hard as some puzzles may seem when you can't figure them out, you soon find yourself frustrated that the solution was so simple in the first place. Hopefully you will enjoy this as I have. I'll gladly update this review if the color option is addressed.
  • Great Puzzle - not for the color blind!

    I love this kind of sequential thinking puzzle - kind of reminds me of a higher fidelity version of a game I had on my first LG flip phone back in the day... My only knocks on it would be that the difficulty ramps up inconsistently, and holy moly, some of these levels with like 23 shades of pink! Definitely adds to to the challenge, but seems unnecessarily difficult at times. If you have any degree of color blindness, I think you're out of luck.

    Can't get past "headphone recommended" screen . Tried tapping the arrow, sliding my finger the direction of the arrow. Tried waiting for a bit. Still doesn't work...hmmm.
  • Lovely, unless you're colorblind

    Simple and nicely done. But you won't get far if you have trouble with color subtleties!
  • Well done

    Using on iPad ios3 - works beautifully, but I'm stuck on level 7! So interesting, such a simple game can be so challenging. Love it. Any chance of some hints?
