Overview of the Games:
This game has nine circles, each with four shapes inside the circle: a yellow circle, a cyan square, a red oval, and a blue triangle.
Objective: link all of the circles to each other. Two circles are linked together when the adjoining shapes match. To win, each circle must be linked to all of the circles surrounding it. For example, the circle at the center of the screen must be linked to all four circles surrounding it.
Rotation groups:
Let's assign a number to each of these nine circles. The three circles of the first row from left to right are 1, 2, and 3. The three circles of the second row from left to right are 4, 5, and 6. The three circles of the third row from left to right are 7, 8, and 9.
There are eight rotation groups in both Level 1 and Level 2 games. The group 1 contains circles 1 and 5. The group 2 contains circles 2 and 5. The group 3 contains circles 3 and 5. The group 4 contains circles 6 and 5. The group 5 contains circles 9 and 5. The group 6 contains circles 8 and 5. The group 7 contains circles 7 and 5. The group 8 contains circles 4 and 5.
There are five rotation groups in the Level 3 game. The group 1 contains circles 1, 2, 3, and 5. The group 2 contains circles 3, 6, 9, and 5. The group 3 contains circles 7, 8, 9, and 5. The group 4 contains circles 1, 4, 7, and 5. The group 5 contains circles 2, 4, 5, 6, and 8.

Obtaining Show Pairs/Hide Pairs:
There are three levels to play this game.
For Level 1, the player could rotate each circle with the central circle at the same time, which is one of eight pre-defined groups. For Level 2, there is one additional feature to allow the player to rotate the outside eight circles around the central circle in the LOOP mode. For Level 3, the circles are rotated in five pre-defined groups.
Step 1: Touch the Group button to select the rotation group to rotate the shapes in these selected circles (green circles).
Step 2: Rotate this selected circle (green circle) with the central circle (blue circle) at the same time Clockwise or Counter Clockwise to change the positions of the inside shapes (circle, square, oval, and triangle).
Repeat steps 1 and 2 until all the pairs of the adjoining shapes match.
Step 1: Touch the Group button to select the rotation group to rotate the shapes in these selected circles.
Step 2: Rotate this selected circle (green circle) with the central circle (blue circle) at the same time Clockwise or Counter Clockwise to change the positions of the inside shapes (circle, square, oval, and triangle).
Step 3: Touch the LOOP button to get into the Loop mode to rotate the outside eight circles (green circles) without changing the inside shapes of these circles to change the positions of these eight circles.
Touch the Circle button to leave the Loop mode and get into the Circle mode to select one circle to rotate.
Repeat steps 1 , 2, or 1, 2, 3 until all the pairs of the adjoining shapes match.
Step 1: Touch the Group button to select the rotation group to rotate the shapes in these selected circles.
Step 2: Rotate this selected circle (green circle) with the central circle (blue circle) at the same time Clockwise or Counter Clockwise to change the positions of the inside shapes (circle, square, oval, and triangle).
Repeat steps 1 and 2 until all the pairs of the adjoining shapes match.
To obtain help inside the game, press the ? button. The ? button also provides a way to show the player the matched pairs and unmatched pairs in the game by pressing the Show pairs button.
The Show pairs button will show the player the already matched pairs with blue arrows and unmatched pairs with red arrows.
The player can press the Hide pairs button to hide the blue/red arrows.
