This game was on my wishlist for over a decade and something caused me to finally pick it up during a sale. Fun abstractish puzzle game about positioning cells, especially once the powered cells come into play. Visual presentation and UI are excellent, just navigating the menu is pretty enjoyable. Unfortunately the soundtrack could use some more time in the oven- gets repetitive and annoying especially if you get hung up on a puzzle. Recommended on sale since it is fairly short.

An excellent puzzle game with a lovely soundtrack that reminds me of the tv series Fringe.
