Description

From the listing uploaded by “appupdater”.

Cohesion - The "sticky" puzzle Cohesion is a "sticky" puzzle based on the classic "15 Puzzle", sometimes known as "slide the square", however Cohesion differs in one important way... The squares in Cohesion are various colours. If two squares the same colour touch sides, they bond together. The bond is permanent, and the new shape it creates adds to the unique challenge of Cohesion. The puzzle is solved when all the squares of each colour have combined.

Cohesion APK: questions and answers

Can I install this APK over the version I already have?

Only if it is signed with the same certificate as the copy on your phone and isn't an older version. If Android says “App not installed”, the certificates differ; uninstalling your copy first works but deletes its data unless it is backed up.

Is the Cohesion APK safe?
