Is there an app for this game?

Anyone know if there is an app version of this game, hopefully for Android? :) Or maybe a very similar copycat game under a different name?

If there isn't... there should be. This is one of the best puzzle games of this type I've ever played. Programmers take note... if you build it, they will come... ;)

There is an iOS version of EG:SL, but unfortunately not Android. Definitely a missed opportunity there, as the game is really well-suited for touchscreen/mobile.

No idea if Android has an equivalent game. I've searched for it occasionally, but have come up empty each time. (If I ever do find something, I'll try to remember to post it here.)

Cool... thanks for the info. Yeah, a real shame it's not on Android too. I have a dozen good puzzle games I play all the time on my tablet, but none of them are as good as this game. Let's hope it gets ported sometime.

Anyway, thanks again for chiming in.

There is similar puzzles that I know of one most are without some variations that I have seen here (no Greater than arrows, hidden cages).

The best one I know off is completely free - available on basically everything (windows, OSx, Linux, HTML5, iOS, Android, Windows Phone, Palm, Symian s60) called "Simon Tatham's Portable Puzzle Collection" It actually has three which would scratch this Particular Itch.

Keen (mostly this), Solo (Killer difficulty is only add) and Unequal (just the > Arrows.) but it is a collection of 39 different puzzles - I install it even before steam on my new machines because it is something to do while games are downloading.

I made a simple web app based on the original genius square: https://thechalkface.net/p5/genius/
