Challenging But Intuitive
TchViolin
The learning curve is steep and I must admit I didn't quite understand what to do after reading the tutorial - some more explanatory text would be helpful - but you get the hang of it fast enough when you start to play. Thereafter, the game is really a joy - slick and polished all around, from the intuitive multitouch controls to the elegant, minimalist graphics and whimsical soundtrack. It's a bargain at $1 - snap it up!
Awesome unique puzzle game

Eliss's simple graphics, innovative use of touch controls, soothing music, and a unique puzzle game experience really come together perfectly. This is one of those games that is simple to learn but difficult to master. While it can be difficult, it's rarely frustrating because the gameplay has very little to do with luck. All things considered, Eliss is probably my favorite indie game on the app store.
Eliss App Review
laissez-faire
Eliss is a neat little puzzle game that takes you back to classic 90s graphics and has a simple goal in mind: planet supernovas. Although such a simple concept, all 20 sectors are drastically hard to play. How it works: You have planet spawns the give you, well, planets. You also have squeezars that require you to get planets of a certain color and size into them, causing a supernova which release stardust. You can split and combine planets of the same color but if two or more different color planets touch, your energy bar drains. You lose if you run out of energy. Collecting stardust allows you to gain life. You win by creating a certain number of supernovas. If you think that is hard enough, whirlpools with high gravity and automated suns get thrown into the mix making things even harder. Overall: Controls: 10/10 One of the best uses of the multi-touch display I've had the honor of playing. Graphics: 8/10 Very 90s. Some may complain about their simplicity but I like it. Sounds: 8/10 The soundtrack is perfect for the game. The high-pitched noises created by selecting something in the menu are annoying. Gameplay: 10/10 Absolutely perfect but casual [puzzle] gamers will be put off by the difficulty. Replay-ability: 9/10 Some of the first levels may not boast as much attention. All in all, this scores a glorious 9/10. An outstanding work for a one-man team.
Challenging, but great fun.

This is a must have, especially while it's on sale for 99 cents. It is so fun, great graphics and gameplay. Very challenging, but I do not understand how people find it so hard to grasp the concept. It is not too complicated, but takes a few runs to grasp the multiple touch maneuvers that make this game really unique. Get this, you won't regret it.
Whoa! Nintendo kinda hard

Now I love this game I'll give you fans and trolls that. But this game is unrealistically hard. It requires you to completely put the phone down and use all 8 ( or whatever ) fingers. Great! Intuitive!! But really hard.
You know it's a great game when..

"Oh, it needs this!!" "No! It needs that!!" "Why is this like this?" "Why isn't that like that?" Please don't update this app with any bells, or whistles. Please don't update this app. You have created a Katamari Damacy. It is kin to Ico. Please, thank you. (P.S. It is WONDERFUL on an iPad. It's the only iPhone-native that scales perfectly in 2X view!)
Not worth $5

The game is good but it's nothing great and definitely not worth the full asking price.
