Developer’s NoteThis could be easily a math game. But with the twist of the “Shapes = Numbers” concept, it brings more simplicity and adds more aesthetic to the game. And along the way to the final stage you will meet a few intersting logics too. Using the “Sliding” mechanism in an unprecedented method these transfiguration will sometimes make you reminisce of some traditional sliding puzzle games with a new collaboration of mathematical operations.
Although the mechanics of the game are simple, this game is NOT an easy game. as you go up the level. To some players it will take 10 minutes or more to clear one stage. The challenging stages are made with more caution and precision so that players looking for an intense puzzle experience would be satisfied. We challenge you to clear the hardest stage, 100th. Yes, it does have an answer..

Each symbol represents a number.
For example: A triangle has three sides, so it's a 3.
Slide rows of black symbols to fill the white symbols.

Nice game. I've almost finished it, and it became more interesting than expected. First 84 levels weren't that difficult, but starting at level 85 there were some more difficult levels which also took longer to solve

Overall - Recommended
I think this might be one of the best minimal puzzle games on Steam. It's unique, challenging and visually appropriate. Sounds are great, ambient and not over done. I needed some time to get the hang of it but after 20 stages it was fun to play with. There's a few twists on the road to the end. Really clever. From stage 80 til the end it really gets challenging(Still couldn't solve few stages). Great game.
Game Objective
Align blocks to match several goal shapes for each stage. (There's a animated in-game instruction) To be honest I wouldn't have needed this. Maybe players who don't play much puzzle games might.
Puzzle Logic
4.5/5
The most thing I like about this game is its unique-ness. A lot of minimalistic puzzle games on steam are fun and enjoyable maybe more compared to this game but in many cases they lack the unique factor that this game totally has. and it comes from the puzzle logic. The levels where you combine the Gridlock-style mechanic with the main game mechanic is brilliant! It can be a bit too hard if you don't like math puzzles but definitely worth trying out(It's just a dollar).
Design
4/5.
Sometimes minimalistic design can give you a feeling that a game is not well polished. This game manages to make it look complete. (I hate 100% white backgrounds or over saturated ones. They seem to make my eyes dry.) The animations are simple, not too much or not too less. It seems though it can be improved in timing. When I finish 1 round it gives less than a second to feel the satisfaction or check how I solved it.
Overall, It will be a great new addition to your minimalistic puzzle games collection.

Overall is a nice product with well designed levels but there should be an option to use a dark theme or the possibility to change the background color, this white background it's hurting for eyes.
