really good hex-based puzzler. swap tiles and connect power sources to receivers. 72 levels in 6 packs, each pack is unlocked from the start, then go one by one, solving a level however grants access to the next one. level layouts are fixed but contents are randomized, so there's no step-by-step solution for them. not ideal, as my preference is hand-made puzzles, but it's okay. great soundtrack, separate volumes...
