CHROMINANCE starts off really easy, but will soon have you flicking colored paintballs like mad, trying to keep them away from each other until they're perfectly positioned over the right background -- which is when you want to have them crash and combine. The whole idea is to blend primary colors and form new secondary colors, but whenever you do so, you have to make sure it happens over a background space that matches the newly formed color. If a red and a yellow connect over a green area, you're out. It can become amazingly chaotic -- in the best possible way. And, if you're playing on an iPad, you can have even have more fun in a two-player match-up, flicking balls onto your opponent's side of the screen and forcing him to keep them in order while he flicks some of his balls at you. Bright and lively visuals add to the fun.

Did we miss something on diversity?

Research shows a connection between kids' healthy self-esteem and positive portrayals in media. That's why we've added a new "Diverse Representations" section to our reviews that will be rolling out on an ongoing basis. You can help us help kids by suggesting a diversity update.
