This different game of logic and skill is something that you probably haven't seen before. You need to flatten all the grey squares, with a mallet, as fast as possible, and each square has a number, which tells you how many hits it will need to be flat.

The problem is once a square is flat, you can't hit it again. There are 10 mallets to choose from, although you can only use 5 of the mallets in the demo version, and each mallet can be rotated, but even rotating it does not guarantee that you will be able to complete the level.

There are 3 difficulty levels, and custom and tournament play. They say that there is a solution for each grid, but I don't know if that includes using any of the mallets. If you make a mistake you can take one move back, and you can upload your best times to a user account so everyone can see how fast you are. The demo version allows you to play for 10 days.

The user account is free from the website, and will extend your trial period to 30 days.
