Ash Oakenfold recently contacted me about his new puzzle app game: Simpl. https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/simpl/id672601351?ls=1&mt=8
The object is to roll the blue square onto the yellow square. I was a bit confused at first. Then I read the description: think of the blue square as a 2x1 cube. So, it's a rolling 3D cuboid puzzle.
I'm not sure how many levels there are, but it's a lot, maybe 75.
Having done a few thousand of these in the past, I'm not enthusiastic about doing more, but they are well constructed, from the ones I did.
As Ash said in his note to me: 'there's no dazzle'. What would really be helpful would be a 3-d rendering.
Look for Bloxorz. It's an old flash game to play on your computer. About 10 years ago a student told me about it - I liked it so much I gave him 10 extra points on a test.
The greatest rolling cube puzzle that I have seen is QVoid. I reviewed it about 2 years ago. Trust me, it's awesome.
Another kick-ass rolling cube puzzler is Cubler 2.
Ash: please dazzle us in the future.
