Difference is that you're playing with a grid of objects and have to find the matches. SwipeTapTap is closer to this (and probably a bit better). But with its whopping 3 MB file size, I might keep this one on my iPod Touch for a while. Still semi-addictive. Capsizing Heart Well-Known Member Jul 21, 2011 316 0 0 Student.
