This is a game that starts out easy, but gets more complicated as you go along. The idea is to expose tiles that need to be exposed to solve the puzzle. Clues are given at the top and sides as to how many tiles in a row there are that must be exposed. You are allowed so many mistakes (depending on what level you are on) when you either expose a tile that should have been smashed, or smash a tile that should have been exposed.

Fans of Sudoku, Mah Jongg solitaire, and cross word puzzle type fans will probably enjoy this the most. No time limits (although there is a clock that will tell you how long it took to complete each puzzle).

This game is full of graphics and color, and the storyline would be appealing to someone interested in ancient history. But if you are looking for a challenge, this game is not for you. I have been doing Japanese logic puzzles online and in printed book form for years, so I wanted to try this type of game on a disc. The puzzles on this disc do not require much deductive reasoning to solve; they are small and only take a minute or two to complete. The logical puzzles I like to solve usually take atleast thirty minutes, sometimes hours. I would only recommend the game for children or possibly others who have never tried this type of game before.

I like this game and I enjoy logic puzzles. It starts out really easy-taught my 9 year old grand to do the first set of puzzles, but it did become much more difficult as I went on. I am on set 8 of the extra puzzles now, and there have been many cases where I had to start over because the puzzles were just really tough. This is different from the 3 in a row puzzles or hidden object puzzles that most computer games are offering now.
