Far too easy, good concept but they really need to alter the number of moves from the normal 3-5 and make it harder and more convoluted to reach the target. The fact they haven't incorporated two colours to make it more complicated is disappointing. I completed 100 levels in less than an hour.

Great concept, well realised. Should help learn critical thinking & problem solving. Perhaps add in a mode similar to golf where you have a 'par' rating for each puzzle. (I found quite a few where I had a spare move at the end). Then try to complete a round of 9 puzzles in as low as possible, or under par or the like... :) Thanks for the entertainment so far. Also, an option to disable buzz/vibrate would be good. Thanks.

Clever concept for a puzzle game! Using the mechanics from one game everyone understands to build another seems to have paid off here. Couple of things I noticed that could be improved: - Pressing the Medium option while it is already highlighted opens the Large puzzles. - Unlocking one level at a time means you don't need to mark that a level has been completed... until you reach the last level on the page. Each time I reached it I briefly hesitated andquestioned whether I had done it already.
