"Same Game is a simple yet engrossing puzzle game where you clear matching blocks in sets of 2 or more."

"Score high by clearing out more blocks at once. If you manage to clear the entire grid, you can keep on playing with a whole new layout. Getting rid of all those blocks is the key to raking in the points!"

"Adjust the difficulty in a one-player game by trying different grid sizes and numbers of colors. Play it your way!"

"Up to 4 players can face off in any one of 3 multiplayer modes. "Fame Game", the most straightforward choice, is similar to the one-player version. "Shame Game"" turns the tables on the players, forcing them to go for the lowest score. Finally, in "Blame Game", it's a free-for-all as everyone vies for blocks on one big grid."
