“Hooked, reminds of my SAT/ LSAT grinding days. If you like deductive reasoning, and a perfectionist, will be very addicting.”

“Honestly I'd give this game a mixed review if there were one, but I'm still inclined to give it a positive review. The game absolutely nails the presentation: simple but elegant visuals and calm music make puzzle solving all the more satisfying. However, the game is way too easy…”
