Reviews
- The game offers a unique and enjoyable puzzle experience based on the Four Color Map Theorem, appealing to fans of math and graph theory.
- The scoring system, which assigns different point values to colors, adds an extra layer of challenge and strategy to the puzzles.
- Despite its simplicity, the game provides a decent amount of content with 50 puzzles that progressively increase in difficulty.
- The user interface is poorly designed, with slow menu navigation and no option to save progress mid-level.
- There is noticeable lag when starting puzzles, which can be frustrating for players.
- The control scheme for selecting colors is cumbersome, requiring multiple presses and making it less seamless.
