    Minimalistic puzzle game: The player connects different tiles, such that each colored path sums up to 42. Good cost-benefit ratio. I enjoyed completing this game. Adding Steam Cloud would be cool though.

    I found the majority of the game's puzzles to be mindlessly easy (barring a few exceptions) and the interface to be finicky and somewhat unresponsive. This caused me to write this negative review. Difficulty: Many puzzles are made easy through the use of repeating patterns which make it easy to figure out the paths required to complete the paths. Actually calculating out how much you need to reach 42 is unnecessary…
