The mechanics are super fun and addictive. With the right strategy it&acute;s very possible to get around even the more complex levels, which is key to good puzzle mechanics. So you start of with a very complex level, but the complexity reduces very nicely with every sure turn you take, which again makes other turn mandatory. It has a bit of the feeling of solving a sodoku, but the right amount of trial and error.
