Great review; sounds like a good app. I'm not much into games--and the few I have are freebies--but I might be tempted by this one.

Chuckled over the comment about only 1 solution being too much like school. I did some research a while back on U.S. schools vs. Asian ones-- their math teaching emphasizes multiple solution, multiple ways of solving a problem. It's pretty engaging stuff--and is considered one of the key reasons their students do so much better than ours in mathematics!

Good! I will be picking it up. I really hate it when there is only one solution. Reminds me of school.

This one looks pretty interesting. I like the video of the gameplay, I think I'll have to pick this one up.

Zak, nearly every level has multiple solutions.

Are there unique solutions to the levels?
