Reliably the best puzzle game I've installed. Played for 4-5 years now, incredible replay value & depth. Simple, engaging, and fun. Only critique is the game desperately needs a hint system. If you mess up, it's up to you to figure out how, usually just by restarting. Very minor issue on an amazing game.

I love the concept but there are two frustrating things to note. 1. There is no way to get a hint or find a solution if you're stuck. 2. Too many clicks... If there is a 0 then you have to tap up to 10 times, and things are small on a phone. You miss a couple of times and it's 20. It's just a waste of time. Zeros should come automatically xd. Everyone is going to start with that.
