### 5/5 — ありそうでない

*2025-02-15, version 1.2.17*

自分が知らないだけかもしれないけど、スリザーリングに類似している中では、このルールで遊んだ事はない。ちゃんと論理的に解けるし良く出来ている。
線を伸ばしている最中もヒント数字が反映されるとより遊びやすくなるはず。
解いたら即ウインドウがかぶさるので、クリアの形を確認できないのは残念。

### 5/5 — Very interesting!

*2020-09-26*

Once we figured out the first level it was really interesting! I'd recommend a simple video or tutorial to step new players through how it works. Very cool!

### 5/5 — Great little logic game

The odd sound effect would be nice, but otherwise a nice simple logic puzzle.
