A "quick look at" review since my brain died and could not play more. But I played enough so far to know that this is a pretty cool logic puzzle game. And it has some jazzy music too, though it's a bit repetative. What you have to do is move the number tiles around, sometimes split them (i.e. 4 becomes two tiles of 2) in order to get the correct number tile to the green solution area. Sometimes it's just a number you have to match, like 2 and you have to split a 4 to get a 2 there. Other times there are the ">" greater than and "<" less than symbols, which I still get confused on even after all these years and have to think about it for a second. Sigh. I envy those who can glance at those symbols and instantly remember what they are without thinking hard. Use the up/down/left/right arrows to move the tiles around (Oh, and all times move at the same time!) and spacebar+direction arrow to split. So this is not one of those mouse click puzzle games. What makes it difficult ...

This game is a solid little puzzler with clever mechanics, easy to control, and satisfying to complete. So lets go through all the flaws... With the game: No undo that I could see. A lot of the time this isnt as big a problem as it sounds, the levels are small and its easy to remember what you did before you made a mistake. On occasion though it really can make you audibly groan when you slip on a direction key. I might be alone on just how much this annoys me, but text and an arrow show up pointing to hints _all the time_, No! I dont want a hint! I didnt want a hint in the first levels, I didnt want a hint by the half way point and I dont want a bloody hint now Ive finished all the levels. I dont want one EVER! Its like having someone backseat game the entire time and it seems entirely pointless, the hint button is literally labelled with 'hint' it didnt have to be pointed out _at all_ let alone every 30 seconds. The community level issues: Editor apparently allows through levels t...
I seriously don`t understand why this game is so unpopular. Seems pretty fun to me. It`s kind of a mathematical puzzle game where you have to add numbers and split numbers to reach the numbers you need. The campaign contains 80 different levels. I can confirm that they aren`t that easy... Additionally this game has a level editor and a community workshop. What would you need more?
This isn't a good minimalist puzzle game. + Some interesting mechanics. + Puzzle sharing with others but there aren't that many people playing this. - There are a very limited number of hints. - Once you run out of hints, you are stuck forever, the only guide for this game doesn't have solutions for the more challenging puzzles.
No way to regain hints when you need them... Otherwise a perfect game.
