'I Love Squares' is a little game that looks great. You drop the glowing lines (either vertical or horizontal) down Tetris-like - you can only match colours with like colours and slowly the lines move up at the game progresses. I found it pretty hard, and since I am not big on these kinds of games anyways, I left it on my iPad for my wife for a while - and then dropped it.
Hue Brix is a pretty cool little game and I played and kept it for quite a while. You have these coloured blocks with numbers on them and that's how many adjacent blocks you can paint with that colour. There are things that make this more complicated then you first would think - blocks that subtract or add amounts of colour, blocks that can only be exited in one direction and specific ending points that much be reached.
All-in-all Hue Brix is very solid. When you beat a level theres a satisfying "resolution" as the colours wind around each other like ribbons and zip off screen and it's great to play on the iPad but I felt like I had played enough and didn't need to see how challenging it gets - I understood the mechanics and the style and was happy to move on. Deleted.
Match blocks is just too hard. Blocks tumble down onto the screen, at first with only two colours but in different patterns. You use the two buttons at the bottom of the screen to tap the patterns you see which makes the blocks disappear. So by tapping : Yellow, Yellow, Green will blocks with that sequence disappear but not, 'Green, Yellow, Green.'
Of course when the falling blocks reach the top you're dead and this will happen faster then you can blink - especially with circular multipliers and a third colour. That is as far as I got - three colours. I tried the game a few more times, but no, I am terrible at it - and so it's deleted.
