Puzzles exist to be solved; so when I discover a new puzzle, I can attend to little else until it is solved. So it is with Trainyard, an iPhone game which plays very nicely at double size on the iPad.
Trains of various colours depart from stations and have to be sent to other locations; but with their numbers increased or decreased and their colours changed. You lay the track to make it happen.
As with all such amusements, the challenges are initially easy, and become progressively harder. I spent too much of yesterday working through the levels and now have four puzzles unsolved, each of which I deem close to impossible. Going to b a long day.
Trainyard was developed by Matt Rix in his spare time. Sales were slow in coming, but now it tops the charts and he is presumably a rich man. You can read his story here.
I have the time, all I need is an idea for a game and an ability to program. How about a Pattaya-themed shooting game called “Hunt the Hooker?”
