As a fan of the Tao Te Ching, I picked this game up on a whim shortly after release.

It appears simple but has challenged my patience as a Zen koan does to the student.

Choices appear to be mapped as the player walks on the trapezoid block, which denotes a forked path, with what looks like two Asian characters on it. Each character is a set of three horizontal lines be they solid or halved – called “trigrams.” Walking over the forked block, a trigram appears onscreen at right.*

*A web search of ‘trigrams i ching’ yields info on decoding the eight trigrams of the Taoist I Ching and the 64 hexagrams, corresponding to 64 levels in the game. Each hexagram presents a philosophy, to start the level. www -dot- taoistiching -dot- org

Very fun game, start a little slow, good for kids and training ;) but after some levels the fun starts, I liked the shape that make you turn and move your arm and body. I suggest to developer to include new peaces formats for the next levels and custom songs, but it’s nice I recommend it
