App Details
Twizzle is a highly addictive puzzle game.
The Goal: Clear the screen from a set of colored cells in as few steps as possible by tapping groups of three or more adjacent cells of the same color. The cells on the screen do fall down with gravity. Rearrange them by rotating the device.
The Challenge: Compete with your friends in three levels (Easy, Medium and Hard). Clear the screen more intelligently than others.
The Bottom Line: Whether you're seeking the competition in a group of players or just play it on your own: fun factor guaranteed!

FAQ
- Q: Does rotating the device count as a step too?
- A: Yes, with one exception: If in a specific situation you can rotate the device without the cells rearranging, this single rotation will not count as a step.
- Q: When adding new cells, how do I know which color the newly added cell will have?
- A: The newly added cell will have the color of one of its horizontal or vertical neighbours (seen from the position where you tap the screen, not where the cell will "land")
- Q: During game play, how can I get back to the main menu instantly without having to finish the puzzle?
- A: Tap the screen with two fingers.
- Q: How can I restart a puzzle during game play?
- A: You cannot. If you want to play the puzzle again, you have to finish it first. This is a feature that will probably be added by an update.
- Q: Can I undo my last move?
- A: No, you cannot. This feature has been requested a lot and will eventually be added by an update.
- Q: Sometimes, the gravity seems to go the wrong way (e.g. left or right, but not to the bottom). What's wrong?
- A: Please make sure that you hold the device in such a way, that the gravity sensors can decide, which way is up and which is down. This is not the case if you hold the device flat (parallel to the earth's surface)
- Q: When changing from "MUSIC: OFF" to "MUSIC: ON", the device is frozen for about 3 seconds. What's that?
- A: No need to worry, that's completely normal. Twizzle loads its game music into the memory, rather than playing it from the storage. During the short "frozen" moment, the music is loaded into the memory.
