User reviews

Simply addictive!

A fiendishly addictive puzzle game that starts gently but quickly becomes challenging and engaging. The simple basic rule set created a game that is accessible and easy to understand - so much so my 5 year old loves it - yet provides a deep challenge. Addictive!

Puzzle Explosion?!

This puzzler and it's excellent take on sudoku kept me amused and scratched my puzzle itch.

Great concept, but something is missing

I really enjoy puzzle and match-3 games, and this game has an interesting and compelling core mechanic. The presentation and UI are awkward, though. Buttons don't look like buttons, navigating through menus feels clunky and clearing numbers off of the board could feel more satisfying. Could benefit from a stronger, more integrated tutorial as well.

Really cool game

It's cheap it becomes very challenging but he noises he game makes are really annoying so just turn the volume down
