    Blademaster's post is nicely spot on.

    I have a history with a game similar to this, a logic puzzle called Battleships (similar to the "You sunk my Battleship" game but with the numbers along the edges that help you deduce the locations of the various ships), so I transitioned to Voltorb Flip fairly easily. There's visceral excitement in seeing "0;5" for a row or column...

    Agreed, but there's a way around that. If you choose to Quit your current game partway through, you'll receive any coins you've earned so far and you won't drop any levels. ...well...normally you won't...I recently hit a run of bad luck, had to Quit five Level-5 games in a row, and the game apparently got sick of me wimping out because it kicked me back to Level 1 on the fifth Quit game.

    Just sayin'.
