I wasn't too sure what to make of this game at first but quickly found myself having a great time. Upbeat music, funny creatures, bright colors -- its great for relaxing.
Its a very different sort of game. You click on "blobs" and if there are 5 or more linked you get a creature. Then if the creature is linked to a blob of the same color you can save it. There's no timer, instead the number of clicks you use is counted. You get more when you save a creature. If you use up the available amount the level ends. The style of game play could have been taken way too seriously but instead the designers went for humor. That's what made me buy the game.
I just wish there were more levels. I already played through once and am doing it again. Its just as fun the second time.
If you want something unique and funny, buy this game! Show less

This is a fairly simple matching game. You click on the like colors until you make a cute little glob. Save enough of them before they fly away, drown or get eaten by a fish.
I made it about 25 levels in before it became too difficult for me. It's a cute game if you enjoy monotonous clicking, which can be very relaxing.

Refreshing twist on the monotonous match 3 genre. I am not a match 3 fan but if I was, this would be my game. This is much easier to play since you only click once versus the typical swapping style. The sticky, wobbly element is also pretty cool and different! It has a fun atmosphere to it complete with cheery music. Great mood booster.

Very enjoyable except for a few levels which I thought I was never going to get through. As you are dependent on which colour blobs float in moves are often very limited, sometimes letting the fish eat some of the blobs will help. There is a dollar counter at the top of the screen but nothing to spend it on - being able to buy a few bonuses to help in the more difficult levels, or enable you to ...Show more
Very enjoyable except for a few levels which I thought I was never going to get through. As you are dependent on which colour blobs float in moves are often very limited, sometimes letting the fish eat some of the blobs will help. There is a dollar counter at the top of the screen but nothing to spend it on - being able to buy a few bonuses to help in the more difficult levels, or enable you to try different strategies, would make the difference between a good game and a great one.
However I did manage to finish the game, in spite of the fact that the last level - 54 - kept saying Game Over when I still had 60 or 70 moves left in the meter!!

On the opening screen You choose between Play & Zen Mode. Zen is locked until you have reached 400,000 coins. Along the bottom of the screen there are 5 symbols.
1.Gears-choose between 2 picture icons, a TV with arrows shooting out or a speaker. TV with arrows is for the game stretching to fit your screen. The speaker allows adj the music & other sounds. I looked for this symbol immediately, as the happy, cheerful, music became very annoying rather quickly.
2. Awards box- scoreboard for the regular game or Zen mode
3. Player list- slots for 5 players
4. Achievements- 32 available achievements. An example is the "Zebra achievement" is earned for collecting creatures alternating between 2 colors. Not all are difficult as the "Charmed achievement" is earned by not touching anything on the game screen for 20 seconds. Many achievements deal with gaining of creatures according to their color.
5. "i" icon -names of development team, testing crew, etc.
The screen set up is very basic graphics. The molecules keep having new segments arriving and adding onto the structure, that reminds me of chemistry science lab when creating molecule clusters of various elements. As pieces are added the structure may become too heavy, out of balance, drop into the ocean or just sink and be lost. When under water there is the added risk of fish swimming by and eating a part of the structure which can disrupt any planning you may be doing. You start with 100 mana in your beaker. Each click depletes your mana or energy level by 1.
The goal is to gather creatures in various color patterns. Once there are 5 or more creatures of the same color in a cluster, you click them, they will evolve to the next size up creature cluster, or blob. Once that creature is once again part of a cluster and you click on that group then that creature is added to the vine.in the upper right hand side of the screen. There are 5 diff colors gold, red, blue orange & purple.
The gist of the story is these units are the basic parts that will evolve in the theory of evolution. They are changing and evolving into higher life forms. Story is not well developed , seems they just needed something to base the game on & chose this idea. Easy to pick up and play for just a few minutes here and there through the day, but is only saved at the completion of a level. Seems rather simple. Has very poor instructions, but seems easy to learn and play through trial and error. Some achievements will be harder to get. Give it a try!

I think it's supposed to be intuitive for pre-readers, but it goes so fast from the beginning that I think kids would get frustrated too.
I see a lotta complaints about the fish, and there is a quick frame of info that says to click them so they don't eat the critters. It was REALLY a quick frame tho; if I'd blinked I'd'a missed it.
If there were instructions on the basic process, I might buy it! Show less

I did not buy this game as I had a game credit and had a choice of this game and another. I chose the other.
I would recommend this game. Give it a go at least, you never know you might like it!
