LightUp Android App Game Review

Description:

This may seem like a very simple puzzle game, but as you get into it you will see that it can be quite the brain buster.  The Lightup Android app is one of the premier puzzle Android apps, and is addicting and challenging to play.  The main goal of the game is to turn all of the tiles blue by moving over them one square at a time.  The key to the game is to plan out your route before you go, otherwise you may make a wrong turn and ruin the entire puzzle.  Since you can only hit each tile once, you have to pick the perfect path or you will suffer defeat.  This is a great game of strategy and mind power to be able to find the correct routes through each of the many puzzles.

The full version of LightUp has over 125 different levels to choose from which will keep you busy for hours and hours.  There is great background music (supplied by ProtonK) and a great gameplay scheme that is easy to follow and fun to play.  The graphics in the game are simple, but effective.  It usually centers around a multitude of blocks with a starry sky in the background.  While LightUp doesn’t make use of the accelerometer, it does have great sound effects and uses the vibration function.
