« Un digne successeur du premier jeu. A la fois différent (on ne joue plus en temps réels mais avec un nombre limité d'éléments à placer) et semblable à l'ancien jeu, je ne peux que chaudement recommander cette excellente suite. »

« My favourite puzzle game, and only game I've had any real go at 100%ing achievements in. Only criticism I have is that I would love a high score board - whether personal or global. I need a target to beat. »

« The idea seemed promising, but it didn't click for me. The game is about finding near-perfect tile placement to trigger bonuses. And that's it. There's nothing more to it. It all just felt confusing and fiddly. »
