Help him find his way to the door by rotating the room and compressing to a new point of view. Once you've mastered the basics of rotating the room, you'll encounter new puzzle elements that will force you to think in 3D, but move in 2D. Moving blocks can carry you to your destination, but only after they have been turned on using a button! Green blocks enable you to see through other blocks like they aren't even there.

Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Sci at Free against Percepto's $0.99. Percepto's advantage is update cadence (every 4 weeks vs every 58 months) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 11.0). On ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
