A relaxing game :)
For those who don’t know, concept is very simple: you have 7 pieces of paper(?) and each time you have to rearrange them to form the required shape.
The nice thing is that you always use the same 7 pieces :)

These are the pieces

Of course, what you can achieve is a bit limited so some solutions require a bit of imagination to see the object depicted (once you solve a level, some details appear over the image to let you better understand the drawing)

Overall gameplay is simple but this is not a negative aspect :)

The real reason why I’ve given it such a low vote is that I’ve found several wrong ways to solve levels. Take a look at my screenshots, you’ll see that I was able to beat levels by filling the last space with a different shape. Sometimes the trick was to place the different-shape piece and then rotate it.
And in such a simple game (I can’t believe it was very hard to create it) I think this is not something we could look over. All the more since this behaviour defies the whole goal of the game :\
I was smart enough to turn that downside into a pro by challenging myself to find as more “alternative” solutions as possible (doesn’t change the fact that I haven’t found the correct solution for some), thus allowing it to stop bothering me (at first I was close to stop playing it because of that issue)

In the end, I think you could get some amusement by this; levels are very short (you can solve one in seconds) so it may be perfect for short breaks :)
