​Shape of Mind is a simple puzzle game similar to Solitaire card games. Connect shapes by dragging them on the board. Shapes of the same color won't connect. You can move strips of connected shapes by grabbing the top-most shape of a strip. Drop shapes onto the Dreamer to begin a Halo. Shapes in the Halo cannot be removed. Once a Halo is complete the shapes will disappear. Complete three Halos to clear all the shapes and win the game!

@Bloodbane Yeah a Halo is always exactly 6 shapes. Might allow longer Halos in the future.


Amazingly well done! I usually don't enjoy puzzle games but this is great! :)


is it on purpose that almost all boards can be solved with halos of periodic colors? as in [yellow-blue-yellow-blue-yellow-blue] or [yellow-green-yellow-green-yellow-green] or [yellow-blue-green-yellow-blue-green] i think unwinnable boards can be fixed by creating the set with constraints in mind, like, create a shape for every combination of color and attachments
