Intriguing and captivating – minimize Review

This is a seemingly simple game at first. You move the colored tiles around the highlighted playing field, in order to match the tiles of the same color to remove them. However, the big difference is using strategy to predict where the tiles will move to. That's because they ALL move at the same time to the edge of playing area, provided the way is clear. Almost like Tetris meets Chess! I wasn't going to download at first when I saw this in the app store. Glad I decided to take a chance on this quick time killer. It's not too deeply involved that you can't take a break, but it surprisingly draws you in and makes you want to complete the level. It will also help your brain by making you think ahead to visualize your move and where the tiles will land. You can reset the tiles if you made a mistake but you can't cheat. (Other than maybe Googling a walkthrough.) I like the soothing synthesized piano music which can be toggled off. The only issues I've found so far in the short time it took to level 20; The reset button area is sometimes difficult using. I've had to touch it repeatedly to work although it does play the recognized clicking sound. I totally agree with others that there should be a way to change tile colors for those players who are color-blind, like me. (At least I got it on a day it was free.) As hard as some puzzles may seem when you can't figure them out, you soon find yourself frustrated that the solution was so simple in the first place. Hopefully you will enjoy this as I have. I'll gladly update this review if the color option is addressed.
