The game describes itself as relaxing take on the god game genre, and even looks like one. The gameplay however has nothing to do with a god game. It is basically the 'Simon says' segment from Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes with just enough extra mechanics to make it a 99 cents standalone game. The gameplay You are given a combinations of colors,...
