Main Task -
Within the game/app there is two modes that i know of so far which utilize this game fun and freaky 2d physics engine with a 3d twist ( u can tip ur phone/ipot any direction to make some materials move ex. water)
Free -
Use all the tools and materials within the game to make your own puzzles/creations
note: you can also save and load in this game type
Puzzle -
Complete the 10 tasks within the 5 categories to unlock something special ( as told in the help file though ive only beaten 3 (makes a tree grow in background but who knows what happens when u beat all 50 and yes some are hard))
Categories -
Tilting - Tip ipod/phone to make water/objects reach goals
Touch - pull out stopper to let water flow certain ways
Drawing - draw certain things which changes the environment
Warm/Cool - draw heat/ice to make water evaporate (heat) then ice to make the vapors turn back into water ( cant describe how bad i pee'd when i saw this )
All - Us all things to finish random tasks
so im thinking there is 50 lvls but who knows since i haven't beaten it yet

fire - changes water into gas, and makes powders explode
dense - liquids heavier than water.
inflow - gushes out water
rigid axis - rigid objects that rotate around their center.
cooler - changes gas into water.
So Overview now
Gameplay - 4/5
some mission hard others laughable, and sometimes engine lags/glitchy though once i rebooted ipod it was fine.
Sound - 3/5
good ambient music and sum effects like no exploding effects so id just rather listen to music while playing which u can do
Use of Ipod\phone features - 5/5
in every way this could only be done for the ipot\iphone.
Overall - 4/5
good app if u and your funs just mess aorund with it at a shop or diner while waiting on something not serious unless ur really into puzzle games but then again who knows if there is more then 50 lvls and within 20 mins i beat 20 lvls some are hard though. but 7.99 is a little tops maybe 5 dollars but the engine and viuals sell this game is fun and worth a buy.
damn... i got the game as well... but it's in japanese! i have my iphone set to german/ switzerland...
does anyone knows how to change the game to english?
