Dwelp
iTunes Description
Dwelp is an elegant little puzzler with a brand new game mechanic. To complete a puzzle, just link all of the same-colored dots by placing them one near another. There’s a catch, though… Once you have connected two dots, the others of the same color become locked in their place.
It’s so simple to understand, yet it opens up a whole world of possibilities! Why “only" 100 puzzles, then? Because they were carefully selected from hundreds of others, in order to offer you only the best of the best.
Each puzzle has more than one solution (and some have thousands). Will you find the one that requires the least number of moves? That’s the real challenge! Should you complete it, you will be treated to a select number of puzzles that are bordering on impossibility. But the satisfaction of solving one of those can’t be described in words…
