Hi,

that game started as a Java 4k game but I have forgotten to publish it in the year 2014. =)
But I like the game mechanics and ported the game to android. It is a game for a short break (waiting for the bus or a friend … =) )

Rotate a circle clockwise, when the one line connect to another line in another circle the other circle will rotate. Your goal ist to make the longest chain. =)

If you dont have an android device or want to play the game in the browser, try out the javascript version

Interesting game.
Can’t say I’ve worked out very much of a strategy; best I’ve managed so far over the 5 rounds is 2524.

Is there a good strategy to it?
The only vague rules I’ve come up with so far are:

  • trace out the results of the 1st few rotations, ensuring that it spreads to at least 4 simultaneous node activations.
  • Try to start near the middle of the board
  • Avoid starting near areas containing many aligned nodes

I can imagine there must be board states that will lead to an endless cycle?

I’d have to agree with @Abuse, with a random board layout you are left at the mercy of the rotation God. To get a high score you need a bit of luck.
