CTR Review

If you liked OverColor (CTR Feb. 2014) here's some good news, in the form of 60 additional more leveled puzzles. This time, each puzzle is based on an animal theme and the easier levels seem easier. The app shows you two grids; one filled in with a pattern; the other blank. It's up to you to lay slices of the pattern into place in order to make a perfect match. You must pick the necessary patterns and stack them up, one by one, in the right order to create the animal. There are three difficulty levels ranging from two to four layers of patterns. The app has multi-touch features, so more than one player can help to suggest layers, making a good collaborative play or whole group activity (perhaps using a big screen). When your composition matches the challenge, you are allowed to move to the next level. There are no in-app purchases, high scores or time limits. See also OverColor.
