There isn’t a set solution to that game. It is a random puzzle so it is different every time. I had trouble with it at first because I would just start pressing on squares and hope for the best. But I learned that you have to go slow and really think about what the results will be each time you touch a square.

The square you touch will not change but all the squares it touches will change. So each time you touch a square try to see in your mind before you touch it what will happen. Go slow and play at doing that for a while and you will begin to see how the squares affect each other. It takes a little practice to begin to see results. But when you are able to make deliberate moves and kind of think like the game, you will be able to control the squares better. Just take your time and practice understanding the logic of the moves and you will see a way through. Best of luck!

I read the reply with the instructions - well, that can take a very very long time to figure out how the gray square affects the ones next to it! UGH!!!!!

Hi, I just started this game, and just passed this puzzle, I first was stuck, then I try to change strategy to solve this puzzle, I try to click on the tiles next to the red ones, and I did it! I solved it this way.

Bye

Actually I find that puzzle is quickest solved if one tends to pick a corner (any corner) and work back across the board to the opposite corner.

Lizzy K.......... thanks for your advice. I was able to solve the puzzle quickly once I slowed down and paid attention to how the pieces moved. I just hope this is not a sign of things to come. Guess I better get to gamezebo for a walkthrough!
