Each puzzle consists of a grid containing clue-pairs in various places. The object is to reveal a hidden picture by linking the clues and painting the paths so that the number of squares in each path equals the value of the clues being linked together.
The game features a unique fingertip cursor which enables playing large puzzle grids with ease and precision: to create a link, press and hold fingertip anywhere on the screen, wait until cursor fills the square and start dragging to neighboring squares. To delete a link, double-tap or use the eraser button above the puzzle.

Love this game! Great boredom buster. Plenty of free puzzles and. Affordable add ones. You have to join two like numbers, but it’s not always a straight shot. Put your thinking cap on, you’ll need it.
The control scheme felt clunky and counter intuitive giving it a one-star experience for me personally. There is a tutorial built in that explains it so that you’re not lost, but the ui still may take awhile to get used to: if you’re willing to put in the time. For those whom the user interface is more intuitive (or if it just “clicks” for you) then a much better experience may be found here. Otherwise it may be a clunky and frustrating experience for you. YMMV
The game is really good and it’s easy to learn. I also like that there’s no ads, but there is one thing. You only get two free puzzle packs and then one puzzle a week for free. This is not nearly enough since you can finish all of these puzzles in just a few days. I think the developers of this game should really consider having optional ads for more free puzzles.
This is a very fun and challenging game but you only get a few free puzzles and I can not afford to buy more so this game quickly became boring because I was doing the same puzzles over and over again. Otherwise this is a great game I would change my review if there were more free puzzles.
Twice tonight within five minutes of each incident this app froze and when I tried to lock my screen it froze my phone and I had to hold the power and gone button to get it to restart. I’ve never had this happen on an iPhone before or this app
This is an awesome app to work on whenever I have a moment. Love all the different types of puzzles.
