Good Game, But Level 38...
Majorloving
This is a very ingenious game with fun levels and concepts, but after paying the 2.99 you think one level wouldn't stop me from playing this game for over two years. This ridiculous glitch on t level 38 has prevented me from continuing and seeing the other levels, so I ask to fix this or to help me figure out how to get past it.
Superb!!

This game has no instructions, but it didn't take long to understand what to do. It's a sliding block puzzle with a twist. The game is dreamy and zen like, yet does exercise you mind. Totally addictive and mesmerizing, with attractive and minimalistic graphics. Definitely recommended!!!! Hope an iPhone version will be released.
A great puzzler game

If you're into moving block puzzles, then this game will get you entertained for quite some time. Excellent graphics (Unity engine) and animations.
Not for me

A puzzle game that you're supposed to solve/figure out without being provided the rules or point? I deal with that sort of thing enough in real life. Folks with a lot of time to waste may enjoy trying to figure this out. Glad I didn't pay for this, so the deletion was without regrets or financial loss.
Evolution of the sliding block

Shapist starts out traditionally, but then introduces behaviors in the blocks which make for a different and quite interesting sliding block puzzle experience. The game also has a very cool minimalist style; you can tell the developers have put a lot of love into this. The difficulty level ramps up nicely. At times I have felt impossibly stuck, but after a few fresh restarts of the level I managed to prevail. Shapist's level designs delight and amaze me. It is well worth the asking price for the full game.
Unique and fun puzzler

This is a very nicely done, original take on sliding tile type puzzle games. The graphics, sounds and controls are all great and the gameplay is fun and engaging. I do wish there was at an least optional tutorial or explanation of some of the different tile types, but the lack of instructions does fit the vibe of the game I guess...Recommended.
Good game but...
AlexCute
It's definitely a good puzzle game and good brainers will love it. But $2.99 for unlocking full game is a bit too high. I'll wait and see if it would drop to 1.99 or 0.99 Edit: I was bored yesterday and couldn't wait for discount on unlocking so I paid. Well, no regret at all. Those unlocked levels are just amazingly interesting. And I can understand why it's worth 2.99. Hope that more new levels are coming to us.
Unbeatable level? Error in design?
Unmatchedsock
I've enjoyed this game but reached a level (since no level numbers are given I can't say which one) that appears unbeatable or designed with an error. The shapes and sizes of the pieces do not allow the user to move them in such a way that leaves the square uncovered. With no help or a way to skip the level I may end up deleting this game. I've tried to beat his level for days to no avail.
Not bad

Simple game. Smooth enough. Didn't like that there was no restart puzzle option (went to previous level puzzle, resolved it, which took me to the current puzzle in original form). No directions or anything like that either, but it's not complicated to figure out.
