So at the time of writing, the game released a few hours back. I’ve been playing a few of the levels, and it’s simple, yet addictive. All you do is angle your camera to line up a shape with the matching block of colour. (E.g. line up a blue shape with a blue block of colour via your camera.) This may seem boring and quick, but it is addictive, and a unique concept. The only downsides is that the game takes ages to boot up, on my 2017 iPhone 8, and that the levels are pretty short, so a dedicated player could complete all of them in just a day. Well, there’s my opinion on the game.

I blasted through the first half of this game very enjoyably, the concept isn’t the most original thing ever but it’s executed very nicely and I had a good time. Unfortunately I got stuck on the anchor lighthouse level with a completely impossible to solve glitch. The anchor was pink but the lighthouse still had some blue randomly at the bottom leaving too little room to solve the puzzle. I trusted the game so much that I frustratedly kept trying to brute force my way through for about half an hour and became very annoyed. Only when I looked up the solution online did I realise the game had simply glitched. Please fix this as there’s nothing worse than an unsolvable puzzle in a puzzle game. Other than that it’s a good game.

I’ve done 13 of the levels and only 11 more to go…this is now like those books that are so good but you count the pages as you don’t want it to end! A calm, clever, challenging enough game to stimulate but quieten the mind at same time. Doesn’t bombard you with ads, doesn’t add more to your mental load, just pure joy. Thank you!!!
