This game is just boring. I don't know if it's just me or not, but it just felt like a chore. The rules of the level change often enough to keep things fresh but... yeah. Some of the later levels are too reliant on luck as you try to get the last color you need only to get 10 colors of what you don't need. This game is also marred with technical issues: The game can't switch in and out of fullscreen without the user restarting it due to a soft crash. You can't Alt+Tab out of it while in fullscreen. When in Windowed mode, the cursor will disappear if you interact with other programs (or sometimes even just moving the cursor beyond its window). The few Achievements that exist don't even work. (When 2 of them are simply to start the game and finish the game, that's just embarrassing.)

A good game for puzzle-lovers; with nice aesthetics, and soothing atmosphere, I recommend it to all. Easy 100%

Very easy game, can get to the end without doing the specific level objectives. Going for the level objectives gives a slight increase in challenge but not by much. Online leaderboards have long been offline and achievements don't actually work so the game won't appear 100% for your Steam Completion Rate. Doesn't like to be tabbed out of and only audio option is on/off.

Well... It´s one of those puzzle games, pretty similar to Candy Crush and games like this. I like the artwork, i like the music... But that´s about it. I definetely would not have spent 5 Euro for this game if it wasn´t part of some indie bundle,. But it was. So i finally tried it out for 10 minutes and uninstalled it afterwards.

A casual matching game where nothing really matters. You can just spam the bottom row until you get the proper colors lined up. If you care about points you probably won't do that, but there's little incentive not to do that.
