The goal of the game is to get the small rat mouse through each level by working the pieces into a path from start to finish. The levels increase in difficulty as the game progresses, making the levels require a higher level of evaluation to solve.
A major complaint I found with this game is the tutorial pictures that are shown before new features are added. I always found that the pictures either failed to adequately identify the “new” game strategy I was learning, or didn’t seem to be incorporated into the level at all.
Other than the one issue though, I found myself engaged in trying to defeat each level. With that said, after a few levels, things just seemed to get more and more repetitive. There isn’t much depth to the game, and even with the more complex puzzles, I really found myself having trouble getting into it.
With that said, it’s a well made game and just because I had difficulty fully enjoying my experience, it doesn’t mean that someone else won’t have a great time with it. If you’re into this style of game, give it a shot. At only $1.99, it’s not an expensive title to try out.
