Nice puzzle game with enjoyable variations. The level balancing is a bit odd because I had much more trouble on the earlier ones. Totally worth the money!

While some aspects of the game are neat, I think it basically has two big flaws. The first is that the UI is lacking. While I don't mind that you can't replay levels until you've beaten it, having some idea of what level you are on, or that you're not meant to be able to select levels until you beat it would be a nice change. Even a basic menu would indicate that the game is working as intended, as the lack of a menu anywhere, the inability to restart a level, and the game exiting directly if I hit escape all made me think that the game wasn't working properly. The second is that the game is very short, even for a dollar. I was done in under half an hour (as in, 100% achievement complete). This wouldn't be as bad if replaying levels to improve solutions was more prominent in gameplay, but it simply wasn't. Most levels only seem to have one solution (or one sensible one) so I had only about 5 levels to improve upon once I beat the game itself. It's a neat idea, but not $1 neat.

É um bom passatempo e foi bem baratinho. Quase de graça. O nível de dificuldade é bom, mas é um jogo muito curto. Quando você começa se animar, acaba. Quem tem um bom raciocínio termina em meia hora. Eu, como sou lento, terminei em duas.

Eh, can't really give this a yay or nay. As you can see I don't even have half an hour. Bujt I've already solved all the puzzles in the minimum moves. This game ends almost as soon as it introduces its most interesting mechanic. Then again,l it is 99 cents.

I liked the game; until it was over. It was over after 17 minutes. I didn't want to do it fast (Looking through the puzzles after having finished, I saw, I did most of them with minimum moves; and felt no whatsoever motivation to do so with the other ones). I played it on one day a little bit, thinking, that the puzzles would be the easier ones and looking forward to the more difficult ones. Then I played it today again and: it was over. The puzzles are nice. But, for a game that costs money, no matter how much or how little, I expect more playing. It doesn't feel like the developers even tried to use the potencial of the game to make it a challenge in any way. Why didn't they use the mechanics and ideas to make more - and mainly more complex - puzzles? It seems to be more the idea of a game, a tutorial for a game than a full game itself. And that's, in my opinion, a little bit sad. The games leaves me exactly at a moment I just wanted to play the game a little bit more. The 17 minutes I invested were the time to get me interested, now that I am interested, there is no more game!

Too few and too easy puzzles.
