About this game
Got some time on your hands but don't have a cube? Play "the Game of Squares"! It is an easy to play puzzle game! Want a challenge? Turn up the starting number of flips and a 4x4 grid! Reached a milestone in the game? Mark it! Made a mistake? Undo or go back to the mark! Want to get used to the game? Use the practice mode! Whether you have just a few minutes or hours together, Squares promises to make it fun!
We recommend starting off with a 2*2 grid and setting starting flips to 2 and increasing it from there.
Key Features
- Play a 2 * 2, 3 * 3 or 4 * 4 grid
- Choose the Rubik Mode in case you want to keep the centre pieces from moving, just like a real cube
- Choose the number for the initial set of turns to start the game. Start with zero in case you want a sandbox mode or a low number to practice your skills.
- Choose the number of sets of patterns to match.
- See the history of turns that you have made.
- Bookmark a particular turn that you want to go back in case you make a mistake or go back to the start of the game, if you want to retry it
- See the initial set of turns so that you can check your solution against what was actually generated.
- Customise the theme - we recommend Dracula for all day use. In case you need a high contrast theme, we have that too. Of course, if you want to give your eyes a workout , we have couple of light coloured themes too
- Turn off particles and animations if you are playing a serious game where every second counts
- Choose from a set of languages in case you want to play in your native one or just a language that you like. (please do let me know if there are corrections)
We recommend starting off with a 2*2 grid and setting starting flips to 2 and increasing it from there.
