This is one that feels very clearly intended for touch-screen play, and doesn't translate well to a mouse.

It's a game where different colored meteors fall from the sky in three columns (almost guitar-hero-like, but without any rhythm elements) and you need to swipe to shoot the same color fireball back at them to destroy them. There's color-mixing involved to get secondary colors, which gets quite difficult at higher speeds.

It seems to be just a demo though. There are prompts in the game for upgrading to the full version, but the full version was never actually made (at least at the time of this review), so the one demo level is all you get.
