Nice game. I played it on PC and enjoyed it. The touch controls on mobile are infuriating, but thankfully the game supports a gamepad (and I highly recommend playing with a gamepad). The game also supports Android TV, but unfortunately the pre-game screen is not controllable with gamepads, requiring click/tap to advance into the actual game. Afterwards, the game can be smoothly played with just the gamepad. And the game also includes Google Play achievements.

Other comments about the controls being frustrating don't seem justified. The tutorial could have been a smidge clearer but I picked it up in seconds. The puzzles are very easy, but it's a nice concept, so I give it 3 stars.

The game started out okay. It gives the player 2 options in which they can control the game. Both controls require work and it makes the game infuriating to play. Good concept, but what's the point if one can't enjoy it as the game doesn't work properly.
