Shades: A Simple Puzzle Game App Reviews

This is one of my favourite game apps!! Go get it!

Its pretty much Tetris with pretty colours. I love it. The music/sound effects are really nice as well.

Lost my super high score for no apparent reason. Opened the app and it started at level 1! I was at 180,000!!!!!!!!! Grrrrrr

I really enjoy Shades. It is simple and a lot of fun.

Ive played this game more than any other since I got it a couple of years ago! Many of my cognitive skills were altered by a mild brain trauma & PTSD after a 2007 MVA: A drunkard crossed the center line & hit my car head on. I wont detail the physical injuries & hardships. Having the cognitive deficits put on the back burner until 2014 says enough about how much physical rehabilitation and lifestyle changes I had to make. I can finally enjoy the games on my iPad. I was never good at airplane or wargames, so I moved toward puzzle types. When I started playing video games, if they made me stop breathing or want to through my iPad out the window, Id delete them. I stop playing a game when I cant relax anymore, but with practice the amount of time I can play increases dramatically. But SHADES has been FUN! and has unexpected helped me improve many lowered or lost skills: Keeping a steady hand, thinking through several concepts instantaneously, processing difficult motor & visual skills, recognizing subtle differences in "SHADES" of color -LOL- and remembering all that info to further strategize & physically make the next move... often, in the final moments, within milliseconds!! My scores are improving faster lately. I have made a skill jump, recognizing more subtleties involved in the game strategy, particularly at the different skill levels. Most gamers would still probably smear me but I smeared myself!

Fun and addictive puzzle game.

Really great app would give more stars if I could

The games use of multiple colors and basic game play makes for hours of addictive fun.

The concept is cool but it gets old fast. I had it for 2 days but I thought it was boring.

The game is fun and addictive.

BUT I paid for the app, I shouldnt see your stupid ad for your new game EVERYTIME I launch the app

I really enjoy this game. Its a similar challenge to Tetris, but harder!

Easy to understand, difficult to beat in the hard mode. Love playing shades. Its a quick, fun distraction.

I like the challenge of this game. My kids even play it from time to time. I find it especially intriguing for the implications in telling the differences between the shades. It sounds crazy, but I swear it is harder to tell the blues and the greens.

Shades is a great game to play when youre bored. There are 3 levels-easy, medium, and hard. If you like games you should try it.

Fun game like old school Tetris except with different color "shades" instead of different shapes. Gets you thinking without hurting your brain ;)

This game is elegant, simple, and addicting. Its easy to pick up and perfect for passing the time while you are waiting. This is one of my favorites!

Shades is a great game, an interesting spin on 2048-type games, with Tetris-style mechanics. The only complaint I have is that the column in which blocks can appear from is completely random. When things are getting hectic at the top, you dont stand a chance because your fingers will not be able to move the block over in time. This means you have to keep all columns pretty flat across the playfield, which complete negates the entire strategy of the game. Still pretty darn good though!

i enjoy this game although i have to leave it alone if i have things to do.

This game is simple and fun. I like the different color schemes and design of the blocks. Easy to learn but it gets progressively more difficult and is a lot of fun trying to beat my scores!
