Mind Twist is an easy to play strategic puzzle game for your iPhone or iPad! The goal is to remove all, or as may as possible, of the colored tiles on the playing field. Tiles that are surrounded (top, bottom, left, right) by one or more tiles with the same color, can be removed by touching any tile in the equal colored group. The more tiles of the same color you manage to remove at once, the more points you get. Twist your iPhone or iPad to rearrange the tiles to solve the game or to get a higher score! On rotation, the tiles "fall" down to the new bottom side of the playing field - according to the "gravity". Using this feature is important, because you achieve new layouts of the tiles to remove - and possibly get a higher score. The game is over, when all tiles are removed or no tiles could be removed anymore.
