### 5/5 — Great game

İnnovative.... Loved it...

### 5/5 — High IQ Required

*2016-04-10*

This brainteaser challenges your mind like no other game. Diehard fans will LOVE this one. You have to think out of the box in many puzzles. I couldn't solve one of the puzzles for a while and stop playing for few days. Then, went back to the app with fresh mind and solve it. Initially I wished there was a hint when you get stuck, but once I solved it without help, I appreciated the sense of accomplishment. Can't wait for the other games to come!!!
