This is a really fun puzzle game. While the idea isn't unique it is still a nice novelty game to play casually. Pretty much all the puzzles were appropriately difficult and didn't take any cheesing to complete. The music and visuals are engaging and relaxing. 10/10 The time trial mode was a nightmare. The game was clearly not fully optimized to include it. Trying to casually solve a puzzle is alright, but doing so with little time is hard because of how the game works. The game will randomly drop a sequence, or select a different tile near the one you wanted to select. Even the smallest mistake can make it nearly impossible to get a decent time score for the "Under 15 minutes" achievement. Also there is a slight delay at the start where your input will not register, so you can mess up a puzzle right from the start because you were working too fast for the game. In a time trial mode. The game should have a countdown at the beginning of each puzzle, as well as had the option to use the directional keys for solving puzzles. The keyboard would have been useful for the inconsistent cursor accuracy when moving quickly. This was a huge issue for me when completing the larger puzzles as the tiles were smaller and required insane levels of precision. 4/10 Overall: 8/10 My total playtime: 52.6 hours
