This is one of the more solid games I've played this round. Nice to have the mechanic grow with a nice pace.

The glyph only disappears after your mouse leaves and is only removed when a new glyph spawns there, so you can keep your mouse on a glyph and click multiple times and then, after your mouse has moved, if the space is still empty, you can still click to fill up the bin of the glyph that was there."},{"author_name":"TeamOnBack","author_uid":"35024","time":"Aug 25, 2014 @ 3:55pm","epoch":1408981800,"text":"Solid work here. Great audio and game play. Simple yet very fun and addicting to play.

The glyph names being similar to Hebrew or some other Semitic language makes it seem like you're looking at the "Spoken Word underlying creation", and the graphics evokes the idea that we're just running in the Matrix.\r\rSurprisingly addictive for what it is.
