A puzzle game that is more like an IQ test for chimpanzees. You see blocks of various shapes and colors and you have to make them all disappear by pushing them and making the identical ones "touch" each other, two by two or three by three.

The levels alternate between "too easy" and "too annoying" without ever giving a pinch of amusement. The only way to provide a modicum of challenge has been to set a time limit, easy way indicative of a blatant lack of inspiration.

The original version on arcade contained pictures of naked women, to compensate for the flatness of the game, say.

In the same genre, you find Equality and 4-Get-It.
