   Gah. “Impossible” is the word that comes to mind. And restarting doesn’t help, because the levels are randomized.

   1st level: Show

   Move the mouse over the black squares, but don’t touch the white square.

   Level with blue shapes (4 in the middle and the rest moving across the screen): Show

   You must touch ONLY the appropriate shapes and nothing else, otherwise you’ll have to start over. First touch the leftmost of the shapes in the middle, then the moving triangle that looks exactly like it (not inverted). Then touch the second-from-left of the shapes in the middle and then the corresponding of the moving shapes. Same with the other two shapes.

   Level with brown rectangles: Show

   You must touch them in order of size, from smallest to largest. Note that the lateral rectangle on the right is smaller than the horizontal rectangle near the bottom and that the lateral rectangle on the left os smaller than the horizontal rectangle on top.

   “OFLT HPAU CMGS” level: Show

   You must touch ONLY the twelve following squares in that particular order ***without leaving the game screen inbetween*** or you’ll have to start over. You must touch the letters in alphabetical order and you must only touch the square at the *upper left* corner of each letter (as shown in the letter O). The order is [spoiler]ACFGHLMOPSTU (yes, the O counts too)

   [/spoiler]

   Black circles with letters: I haven’t passed this level yet, but I’ve figured that Show

   the letters are really roman numerals and you have to touch them from smaller to larger. *Goes to look up the order*

   So far I’ve got the first six, Show

   I-IV-V-X-L-LI

   This game is nice, but the fact that every little slip of the mouse costs you a life is very frustrating. Especially optical mice are too unstable for this :(

8. NetMonster says:

   August 21, 2008 at 8:38 am

   Got it. The final order is (big spoiler) Show

   I IV V X L LI XC C D DX M MI MX ML MM

   Brown triangles and squares: Show

   You must go over the squares in a certain order. Find the beginning square (don’t worry, you don’t lose any lives before the first success) and then procceed as follows: For every square, scan the line and column your square’s on and look for a triangle that points *away* from the square you’re on. There can be other triangles between your square and that triangle, but no squares. The triangle you’ve found is pointing to the next square.

   Correction for the brown rectangles level: Disregard my last comments, it looks like the puzzle changes every time.

    Purplish moving circles over a set of triangles, circles and bars:Show

    Focus on the shapes that don’t move. You must touch them in the following order:
    7_6_1
    8_5_2
    9_4_3
    Did I mention that you can’t touch any of the moving circles or the bars inbetween?

    On all levels, you can’t leave the game screen or touch any other shape besides those required.

11. NetMonster says:

    August 21, 2008 at 9:01 am

    Black circles moving over black circles: Show

    Touch the circles in the background in order of size from smallest to largest, without touching any of the moving circles.

12. NetMonster says:

    August 21, 2008 at 9:07 am

    Purple pencils: Show

    Imagine that the pencil is slowly turning *clockwise*. Find the starting one and proceed by touching the pencil’s next move. You must touch the tip of each pencil, not the body.

13. NetMonster says:

    August 21, 2008 at 9:14 am

    Green circles: Show

    You must only touch the little circles in the middle of each formation. After you find the starting one, the opening of each formation you’re in points to the next one. The ones that point to the edges are actually pointing at the formations next to the opposite edge (like in those games where you move your player off the edge of the screen and you come back from the other side? I hope I’m making sense).

14. NetMonster says:

    August 21, 2008 at 9:17 am

    Purple and white triangles: Show

    In order of size, click alternatively one white-one purple. Every shape must be larger than the previous one.

15. NetMonster says:

    August 21, 2008 at 9:20 am

    Grid of squares with one black circle and some black triangles on the bottom of the screen: Show

    Start from the circle, then go to the direction the triangles are pointing from right to left.

16. NetMonster says:

    August 21, 2008 at 9:39 am

    Four moving white squares, many little black and white circles: Show

    Touch a black circle (find the starting one) then touch the closest circle of the ones in the middle. Same for the other three black circles.

    Green rectangles: Show

    Touch them in order of size, from smallest to largest.

17. NetMonster says:

    Bluish rectangles, some moving: [spoiler]Examine the middle row. From top to bottom, it shows the order in which the moving rectangles must be touched.[spoiler]

20. NetMonster says:

    August 21, 2008 at 10:21 am

    Grid (plain): I can’t find any logic in this level. By trial and error, I got this solution: Show

    Find starting square. From there, 4 up, 2 right, 2 down, 2 right, 2 down, 2 right, 4 up, 2 right, 4 down.

21. NetMonster says:

    August 21, 2008 at 10:36 am

    Black and white shapes in rows and columns: Show

    You must only touch black circles. First the one in the column with 1 black shape (the circle), secondly the one in the column with 2 black shapes, and so on until the one that has 7 black shapes.

22. NetMonster says:

    August 21, 2008 at 10:42 am

    Moving black and white shapes, and a row of small ones on the top or bottom: Show

    The little shapes from left to right show the order in which the moving shapes must be touched. Note the shape and color, as well as the direction of the arrows – if the arrows are pointing left and right, then the shape must be moving horizontally, otherwise it must be moving laterally.

23. NetMonster says:

    August 21, 2008 at 10:44 am

    Black and white shapes partially conering one another: Show

    You must follow a path along them. Few choices, easy trial-and-error.

24. NetMonster says:

    August 21, 2008 at 11:12 am

    Grid with black and white squares: Show

    You must touch only black squares. Every time the next square is on the same row or column.

25. NetMonster says:

    August 21, 2008 at 11:19 am

    Black and white shapes forming groups: Show

    You must always touch the same kind of shape, regardless of color. First go to the group of 2 shapes, then 3, and so on.

26. NetMonster says:

    August 21, 2008 at 11:25 am

    Correction for “black and white shapes partially covering one another”: Show

    You have to go rectangle-circle-triangle-rectangle-circle-triangle… the three shapes in the same order every time.

27. NetMonster says:

    August 21, 2008 at 11:27 am

    Correction for “moving black and white shapes, and a row of small ones on the top or bottom”: Show

    The order may also be from right to left.

28. NetMonster says:

    August 21, 2008 at 11:31 am

    Green squares and triangles: Show

    Find the starting square in the leftmost column. The next square is in the next column, but in another row: Go up or down as many rows as there are arrows between the two columns.

29. NetMonster says:

    August 21, 2008 at 11:38 am

    White squares and rectangles touching one another, some moving: Show

    You have to follow a path along them and not touch the white font. The path is pretty obvious, but the timing needs some skill.

30. NetMonster says:

    August 21, 2008 at 11:40 am

    Correction for “grid of squares with one black circle and some black triangles on the bottom of the screen”: Show

    If the circle is at the left side of the row then you read the instructions from left to right.

31. NetMonster says:

    August 21, 2008 at 12:13 pm

    Pink rectangles and small grey sticks: Show

    The grey sticks don’t count as shapes, you can touch them. Touch all the rectangles that have a stick touching their left side, bottom to top, and then all the rectangles that have a stick toughing their right side, top to bottom.

32. Reka says:

    August 21, 2008 at 12:26 pm

    Brown rectangles in four columns, with some rectangles centered in their column, others touching one side or another: Show

    Find the starting rectangle (for me, it was on the bottom right). Now find the rectangle in the next row above that is positioned the same way relative to its column: i.e. if the starting rectangle is touching the right edge, find the rectangle in the next row that is touching its column’s right edge. Move up like this to the top row. Now find the rectangle in the top row that’s touching the other edge, then the similar one in the next row, and so on down to the bottom.

33. Reka says:

    August 21, 2008 at 12:27 pm

    I think NetMonster’s “pink rectangles and small grey sticks” is the same as my “brown rectangles in four columns”.

34. Jo Mac says:

    August 21, 2008 at 3:32 pm

    Netmonster – the plain grid with the so many up so many right etc

    I too worked it out by trial and error until about 4 squares to go when I noticed

    Show

    in the bottom right hand corner the very design I was mapping out. (sigh)

35. Jo Mac says:

    August 21, 2008 at 4:19 pm

    Has anyone any ideas about the orange circles with the spinny orange triangle in the middle? I keep getting it and it’s driving me mad!!!!

36. Reka says:

    August 21, 2008 at 10:37 pm

    Jo Mac, a couple of people have posted solutions to that level at Jayisgames. Even so, it took me a while; let me see if I can describe it any better.
    Show

    Ok, so you have four rings of circles, arranged in twelve spokes, with occasional random gaps. You also have a triangle spinning in the middle in some direction or other. The direction it’s spinning is the direction you will be moving. One of the spokes has four circles; the outside circle on that spoke is your starting point.

    Now, forget all about the spokes and concentrate on the rings. Imagine that each continous set of circles in each ring is connected, so what you have is a set of “platforms” with gaps in between. You need to touch both the start and the end of each “platform”, remembering to always move in the direction the triangle is spinning, and don’t touch any other circles.

    Ok, so this’ll get you around the outside ring, but then what? Well, you need to repeat the procedure with the next ring, continuing from where you ended. However, you always have to begin with an endpoint of a platform, not a startpoint! I.e. if you end up “above” a “platform”, then you simply find its endpoint and continue from there. But if you end up “above” a gap, so the next logical circle seems to be just a few millimeters away, stop and resist the urge: that circle is the startpoint of a platform. Your next circle needs to be the endpoint of that platform.

    Continue this way all the way inward, remembering to finish each ring before you move inward to the next one, endpoint-cross the gap-start point-thread the maze to the next endpoint-cross the gap-start point… until you finish.

    Black circles connected with black paths: Show

    You must stay on the black path and not touch the white font. Find the starting circle, then each time follow the shortest path.

38. NetMonster says:

    August 22, 2008 at 12:49 am

    Sometimes the levels are inverted…

39. CeeCee says:

    August 22, 2008 at 1:32 am

    It took me way too long to figure out how to know if I’m doing it right or wrong: Show

    The white bar in the top right shrinks when you touch the right thing. If you touch the wrong thing (after a correct start), it returns to its original size and you lose a life. You have to touch things until the bar disappears, so you can gauge about how much of the puzzle you have left.

    The radial array of orange circles with the rotating triangle in the center is driving me crazy. I found the first seven circles, but I can’t see a pattern. Anyone?

40. NetMonster says:

    August 22, 2008 at 2:11 am

    @Ceecee: See Reka’s comment.

    Another correction for “black and white shapes partially covering one another”: Show

    It seems you also have to alternate between black and white (black-white-black etc).

41. NetMonster says:

    August 22, 2008 at 3:13 am

    Two big blue circles connected with a blue path, and some blue rectangles around: Show

    Touch the starting circle. Follow the blue path to the other circle without touching the white font.

42. NetMonster says:

    August 22, 2008 at 3:23 am

    Counting the first “level”, which is always the same, I think so far we have 29 solutions. If there are 30 levels (I’m guessing so because it’s probably a round number), we’re missing one. If the first “level” doesn’t count, we’re missing two.

    One level we haven’t figured out yet is the one with the horizontal black bands with rows of white circles in them and white squares on the side. Must be the last one.

43. NetMonster says:

    August 22, 2008 at 4:22 am

    I got the solution by trial and error… can anyone see the logic in it?

    Horizontal black bands with rows of white circles in them and white squares on the side (big spoiler): Show

    Find the starting square. We’ll name that column C1 and the other one C2. For every square, there are 0 to 4 circles next to it. The following solution is written as though you’re looking at the circles while you’re standing on the square; that is, whenever the square is on the RIGHT side, you must INVERSE the order of the circles to get the right formation.
    Touch the squares next formations:
    C1 oooo (starting square)
    C2 oooo
    C2 oo_o
    C1 oo_o
    C1 oo__
    C2 _oo_
    C2 __o_ (not so sure how you decide if there are 2 identical ones)

44. NetMonster says:

    August 22, 2008 at 4:41 am

    Correction for “green squares and triangles”: Show

    Sometimes you go from right to left.

    Also, about the purple pencils: Show

    Sometimes you go clockwise, sometimes counterclockwise – but I think it must depend on the direction the first pencil is pointing, otherwise we wouldn’t have enough information to pass it without losing a life. I think in my case the first pencil was pointing upwards and it was going clockwise. If anyone gets [first pencil downward – clockwise] or [first pencil upward – counterclockwise] then my assumption is wrong and the level is flawed.

45. Reka says:

    August 22, 2008 at 8:45 am

    Horizontal black bands with circles on them and squares on either end: Show

    Look at the *total* number of circles on each band, starting from 7 and going down to 1. You need to touch the square that’s at the “heavier” end, i.e. the end with more circles.

46. Reka says:

    August 22, 2008 at 8:48 am

    About the number of levels: the game ends when you reach 30, but there are actually more levels than that. For example, I didn’t get the stupid orange circles with a rotating triangle level at all until about the fourth time I played.

47. Reka says:

    August 22, 2008 at 9:31 am

    Purple pencils: Show

    If I recall correctly (and it’s entirely possible that I don’t), my first encounter with that level had the first pencil pointing down, and the next going clockwise from it.

    Black & white rectangles, circles, and triangles: there are two levels like this. One has the shapes in groups, the other has them all connecting.
    Groups: Show

    Each group has a different number of shapes; you need to touch the “active” shape in each group, starting with the group of 2 and going up to the group of 8 (or was it 9?). The “active” shape is the one that only occurs once in each group. (For me, it has always been a triangle.)

    All connected: Show

    You need to follow the sequence rectangle-circle-triangle, alternating between black and white, going in a continuous line along the appropriate shapes (don’t touch the background). At least I think it’s always rectangle-circle-triangle, but YMMV. Anyway, the 3-sequence combined with the 2-sequence means that you always need to go to the opposite color of each shape type – if the last triangle you touched was black, the next one needs to be white.

48. Jo Mac says:

    Reka

    Been playing again and got the stupid orange circles. You explained it very well

    Thanks
