Guroku is a puzzle game based on a completely new principle that has made it popular all over the world. ▪ The player moves colored stones around the game grid, which determines the directions in which the stone at a given position can move.  ▪ The goal is to get the individual stones on the target field of the same color. ▪ Each time a player moves a stone in a selected direction, that stone does not stop moving until it hits another stone or arrives at a position on the game grid from which it is no longer allowed to move in that direction. ▪ This principle forces players to devise clever solutions, such as strategically placing other stones in such places that the moving stone stops where it is needed. FEATURES ▪Simple controls - just move the stones in the direction you want. ▪Easy to learn the rules, our tutorial in the introductory levels will help you. ▪Even though the rules are simple, the puzzles in the higher levels will be a challenge to solve. The game is especially suitable for those who like to exercise their brain. ▪Compare your performance with other players on the global leaderboard. If you solve a puzzle with fewer moves, you'll get a higher score. See how others are doing. ▪Collect achievements in the Game Center to add variety to your game experience. ▪The game offers a total of 245 levels of varying difficulty. Try to solve them all. ▪Shake your brain, it's not as easy as it may seem! The game is available exclusively on iOS. Enjoy!
