What's It About?
Find someone to play with and choose the instructions mode first. One player touches and drags one color of squares to square markers of the same color, while the other does the same with different color squares. Then both players hold onto the squares (as squares are still in motion) until the screen turns all white. Most important points: Don't pick up your fingers, and be sure to hold onto the squares for the determined amount of time. There are seven different modes of puzzlers to choose from.
Is It Any Good?
FINGLE is a lot of fun. It's been described as the app version of the old party game Twister, and that's pretty accurate of how the game feels when played. This is a good game for people who don't like to have to think too much in puzzlers to still enjoy the puzzle experience. It is important to stay focused, though. With more than 50 levels total, it's a fun cooperative way for two people to play on the iPad at the same time. The game is billed as a romantic ice-breaker, but there's nothing outrageously overt along those lines that would prevent it from being just good fun for kids, teens, or adults.

Did we miss something on diversity?
