Flip It (A Game for Kindle)

by 7 Dragons

Product Description

Flip It! is a game that starts out simple and gets more challenging as you play. Exercise your mind and enjoy solving various patterns and puzzles.

In Flip It! you are shown a grid of tiles that are either black or white. Clicking on a black tile will 'flip' the tile to white; clicking on a white square will 'flip' the tile to black. Change all of the tiles white and you've passed that level. It may seem simple, but there's a twist: when clicking on a tile to 'flip' its color, all tiles touching the selected tile's four sides will also flip their colors. Add to that a growing number of squares and patterns per level, and you've got yourself a sophisticated brainteaser.

Try beating your old times, or completing a puzzle with fewer moves. Can you complete all levels with the fewest number of flips?

3.0 out of 5 stars Entertaining for a short time, then just repetitive... February 8, 2011

Worth the 99 cents I paid for it I suppose but I definitely wouldn't pay more than that and after having played it I would think twice about buying it over again if given the choice. I would assume most people could complete all levels of the game within an hour. I was surprised to see that many of the levels seem to be repeats of a previous level (ex. 1 level has 4 squares to turn starting out with the top right turned black and the bottom left turned black, a few levels later you are again presented with 4 squares only this time the top left is black and the bottom right is black...same exact method is used to pass the level only reversed). I wouldn't say that I'd recommend this game to anyone unless you are simply looking for something to entertain you while passing a very short amount of time (like I was) then it's worth a shot, otherwise I'd recommend spending your money on a better game, afterall, Amazon does offer quite a few free games that are really fun...Shuffled Row, Black Jack, and Mine Sweeper just to name a few :)

4.0 out of 5 stars Fun little game. Tough, but fun. February 2, 2011

I saw this mentioned on a website, so for less than a buck, decided to give it a try.

If you like a puzzle style game, I suggest picking this up. The goal is to flip all of the squares white. Now, the first few levels are pretty easy, but the difficulty ramps up quickly (at least it did for me).

If possible, it would be nice if you could ask for a hint, but I understand why that may not be doable. Also, if you are ever concerned that you made the wrong move, just click the square again, and you will be back where you started.

Do I see this being a game that I play a lot? No, not really. Unfortunately, once you get stuck - well, unless you are really determined, you might never open the game again. But for less than a buck, you don't need a ton of playtime to get your money's worth. Give it a shot, and we'll see what other applications get made for the Kindle.

Also, the ability to track progress for 8 people is nice - amusing names also.

Note - a hint page has been added by the devs out on the internet if you need it [...] I'm not allowed to tell you the website, so you will need to do a search for it, unless a link in game is added.

Thanks!

4.0 out of 5 stars Fun and simple February 3, 2011

It was an ok game, but the first several levels were extremely easy, the next few were slightly challenging, but not much, then I got to level ten and it was impossible, at least for me. The game could use more a gradual increase in difficulty. It was entertaining though.
