Description

From the listing uploaded by “appupdater”.

9 Squares is a colorful puzzle game with entertaining and mesmerizing gameplay. Once you start playing, it isn't easy to stop. It has this "ok, one more level" effect. HOW TO PLAY Colorful squares will appear on the central board in various combinations. Find where they fit on any of the side boards. Rotate the central board if necessary. Tap one of the side boards to transfer the squares. Try to fill each board with the squares of the same color for extra points. Play as fast or as slow as you want. The game has two different modes: BEST SCORE In this mode, you are competing against your own top score. No timer, no pressure. Take your time and make the best choices. BEAT THE CLOCK Think fast. The game will challenge you to either collect a given number of squares or to reach a certain score before the clock runs out. Exercise your brain when you have a moment to spare and have fun!
