Review:

As the game starts you hear this awesome mono tune. I start my review like this because that’s the first thing you notice in the game, the ridiculously cool sounding mono music. The creators of this game spent a huge amount of time developing the sounds. There are 4 cool tunes to choose from, and that's just in the demo! When one tune gets boring you just swap to the other one. My personal favorite is the first song. The tune is great, the loop is not annoying (like most mono songs) and it relaxes your brain so the only thing you concentrate on are the blocks.

But enough about the sound, lets get into the gameplay...
The basic objective of the game is to get 3 blocks of the same color together so they disappear. Simple right? Wrong, so very, very wrong. The first two levels of this mind twisting game are a peace of cake. Get to Level 3 and you'll be pressing the "Undo" button like crazy. That's another great thing about this game, the magical "Undo" button, every game should have one. The game gets hard because you have to look at each of the blocks current color the color of the block after that but you also have to be on the lookout for the color of the block next to the block you are about to fire. It’s harder than it sounds. It’s really challenging at some points, a great game for people who enjoy solving difficult stuff.

On the down side the gameplay is repetitive and not too addictive however the constant increase in need of skill to pass a level makes up for that.

Conclusion:

A good game, certenly worth the money if you're the "I can't sleep until i've solved it" type, but for all the rest a good time killer.
