Creative Patterns
Read full descriptionHide full description
Pattern forming game which develops creativity and visual construction ability. Pattern-forming exercises are part of the IQ measurement. The goal of the app is to create complex patterns on a board of tiles from the basic tile patterns. Can be used as an educational tool from age 8. Can also be used as a Discovery Toy in cognitive psychological treatments. But most of all, it's fun to play with, and you can let your imagination soar. Usage: The boards on the game screens contain tiles (at the start the tiles display empty/solid squares). By tapping a tile, you can choose from eight basic patterns. By dragging a tile, you can flip or rotate the basic pattern on it. You can compose complex patterns from these tiles. The app has 4 modes: โข Create Create your own patterns. โข Practice Practice how to reproduce a built-in pattern. โข Training Explore the transformation possibilities of the tiles by trying to cover a built-in pattern. โข Memory Game Train your memory to remember a practice pattern and reproduce it with as few selections and transformation as you can.
Color Regions

Four Colors. One Perfect Solution. Think you can color a map without making a single mistake? Every puzzle looks simple at first. But with only four colors and one rule, finding the perfect solution can be surprisingly challenging. Your goal is simple: color every region so that no two regions sharing a border have the same color. Some regions are already colored to give you clues and ensure that every puzzle has a unique solution. But watch the borders carefully: * Regions sharing a border must have different colors. * Regions touching at only a single point can have the same color. * You have just four colors to complete the entire map. * Every puzzle has a unique solution. Easy to learn, challenging to master. Take your time, think ahead, and find the one correct coloring.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Color Regions at none against Creative Patterns's 2. Creative Patterns's advantage is update cadence (every 5 months vs every 73 months). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
