Pebbles is ideal for a quick game!
Category Price Seller Device
Games Free Objective Development Software GmbH iPhone, iPad, iPod

The game is easy to get into as well as get out of again. There is no troublesome saving or loading – just end the game (by pressing the home button on the iPhone) and start exactly where you left off next time you turn it on.

Pebbles is flexible!
Pebbles has got everything: from a quick game here and there to tricky challenges.

The easier levels don’t require too much sweat; however, they are not trivial and still a lot of fun. The higher levels of difficulty get pretty tricky, though. Just the right thing when you’re in the mood to get that gray matter working.

Pebbles is pretty and sounds cute!
What’s more, Pebbles is supported by adorable visual effects (three pebble designs to choose from) and the cutest sounds.


How does Pebbles work?

The basic principle of the game is irresistibly easy: from the edge, you throw a pebble into a square playing field. When one stone lands on another of the same color, this stone as well as all bordering stones of the same color disappear. The goal is, of course, to empty the field – so far, so good.

Yet, this simple concept leads to surprisingly challenging functions, and the variety of strategic possibilities make Pebbles an absorbing game.

A shelf above the playing field shows which stone is going to come next. Knowing which stone is going to follow is a deciding factor in the game’s strategy.

Choosing the sequence of the moves with care is also very important: a well positioned pebble can do more than just eliminate others; it can also be the basis for up coming moves, just as a badly positioned pebble can prove to be terribly obstructive.

The level of difficulty increases with the number of pebbles that are in the playing field at the start of a game as well as the number of different colors.

Love the game but...

Love this game but I really need an option to turn off the sounds!


Excellent, Challenging, Game
garysteven

Excellent, challenging, game although the rules are few and 'simple'. Also, difficulty increases very gradually, allowing a person to first get the 'hang' of it. Interface and options are simple, well designed, and clear.

So many levels! If you understand what to do, it's very fun. Although it starts off easy, it becomes harder. GET IT:)!


Very calming and surprisingly engaging

I got this because it's made by Objective Development (LaunchBar, Little Snitch), a company whose products I use daily and quality I trust, and because it was free. I wasn't expecting anything, really, and don't play many puzzle games, but after a few hours of playing, putting it on my girlfriend's iPod touch so she could play, and learning new strategies, I am happy to say ObDev didn't disappoint. Fun, challenging, easy to learn, and very calming to play. Thanks!


Concept is good

This game has a good strategic standpoint and the presentation is engaging. However, when I downloaded it, the pebbles were so hard to move from the sides that I deleted the game. However maybe it's just my phone, so download it anyway and see how it works.


Too Easy

This game just goes on and on and on. I'm glad to finally get a game that gets harder as you play and doesn't make u pay. I'm up to 5 colors and 20 pebbles!!!!


Great game

Not so simple, but doable, addicting game. I've played evernight since I've gotten it. I like that I let's you resume your previous game, so you don't lose your progress.


Simple and engaging fun

I have been playing with this for a couple months now. It's the perfect brainteaser at the end of a long day. The musical sound effects are quite nice too.
