The simpler, the better. That’s seems to be the magic formula for the developers at Candy Cane. These guys were the brains behind Fuzzle, one of the more popular games in the early days of the iTunes store. Now, they’ve taken that “simplicity principle” and created a new game involving furballs aptly called Fling! that on the surface looks relatively harmless. But, spend a few minutes with this game, and you may find an addictively challenging logic puzzle that never plays the same twice.

They have taken a puzzle concept which is extremely simple and elegant (think rush hour puzzles as an example) and put a ton of work and thought into making it more fun and addictive. For example, they have 3 modes, including arcade (as many puzzles as you can finish in the allotted time, with more time adder per successful puzzle), a relaxed mode, where beating 5 or so puzzles of a given difficulty unlocks higher difficulties, and another timed mode. Little touches are woven through the game, like a "history" feature, which shows you which puzzles you needed hints on and which you took a long time on -- you can go back and redo those if you like. The undo and hint features are also integrated seemlessly. Take a hint in "unlock" mode and the puzzle doesnt count as solved. Taking hints in arcade mode is part of the game . . . you only get so many. If you are at all interested in puzzles, its a must buy.

This is easily one of the best puzzle games for the ipod/iphone. Well put together with good menus, sound, presentation. There is a theme to the game but it plays out just like a puzzle game.

Fling! is a very polished puzzle game. Its like Mouse About meets Peg.

I simply can not praise this game enough.graphics are fantastic and boy are the puzzles challenging after you get past level 3! Download this game!!!!

This game starts really simple - just Fling the furballs into each other - and the first couple of levels I thought this is so easy .... but then it slowly gets more and more challenging - I can't imagine how hard the level 19 must be!

Can I be the first to say, "well done!" Great puzzles. Great design. Amazingly put togerther. Keep it coming guys!

Waste of money. This "game" is so boring, it's just bouncing balls off the screen. I deleted after about 2 minutes playing. Definitely should not have to pay for this app. But, I wouldn't even keep it for free.

Great game - an endless supply of small little puzzles, perfect for when you have a few minutes ... except when those minutes turn into hours :D

Well put together game and the no puzzle ever the same is what sold me. Very well polished and a must have! Thank you for such a well thought out game.

Addictive and challenging. This is the best puzzle game on the App Store by far.

a must buy for puzzle fanatics. mind boggling and fun game i love everything about it!

Great graphic, addictive gameplay.. Terrific!

I love everything about this beautiful game! The background music, the cute rolling furry balls, the different game modes (especially the arcade mode - definitely the most fun mode - make this the default!), the walk-though instructions tips, the pop-up explaining things, the hints for when I'm stuck. Best is the puzzles themselves, which start simple but slowly become incredibly complex, with each being sort of like solving a small sudoku or chess problem, but with furry balls, hard to describe without playing ... amazingly well-done app for version 1.0!

This has to be the silliest of the 15 games I've bought from the Apps store. I bought it solely because of the rave reviews and am so disappointed! Just because a game has a challenge -- in this case strategizing which furry guy to fling and in which direction -- doesn't mean the game is fun or even interesting. This game is neither.

Despite its fluffy appearance, its puzzles are each something along the lines of sliding-block/sudoku/chess puzzles (but different), i.e. be prepared to think. But for people who like exercising their brains, its really a beautifully polished game that entertains for hours. And its many different modes and automatic saving mean its a great pick-up and put-down app when neccessary.

Fling provides me exactly what i want from an iphone game, a quick mental challenge that can keep me occupied for minutes or a few hours! Every puzzle is different and requires thinking ahead to get to a solution, a bit like you do it when playing chess. This is probably the best puzzle out there for the iphone, brilliant!

#1 puzzle game I've ever played on any system, hands down

Make a Second one plz! Me and my girlfriend lay in her bed and play it and we made a game out of it (: who eer solves it first gets to kiss the other or something else if they want ^__^ guys you might want to try it lol (: love the app though!

Highly addicting! I could play this game 4 hours!!! Get it! (it's worth it) : D

Love thus game, very challenging. My only suggestion is to not penalize if the player skips a puzzle. I've been stuck on level 11 for days and I can't advance because everytime I solve a puzzle or two I find one that I just can get so I skip it. Solving any 6 puzzles on a level should advance you. Or up the number of puzzles that need to be solved an remove the penalty for skipping.

This a great little game - starts off easy but gets quite challenging. It is very user friendly and sports a streamlined interface. If you like puzzle games, this is a must-have.

I'm sure I'm not the only one who is sick of the thousands of identical, poorly made iPhone puzzle games. But I'm glad I tried this one out when it was having a free day - very well made, would be worth the $1.

any review critisizing this game as uninteresting is sorely mistaken, it is among the best puzzlers on the app store and unfortunately was overlooked at release. if you have an attention span of more than a minute, this is the game for you

I love everything about this beautiful game! The background music, the cute rolling furry balls, the different game modes, the walk-though instructions tips, the pop-up explaining things, the hints for when I'm stuck. Best is the puzzles themselves, which start really simple but slowly become complex, with each being sort of like solving a small sudoku / sliding-block puzzle, but with furry balls, hard to describe without playing ... amazingly well-done app which gets better with every update!

Worth every bit of $.99

Fling plays by a very simple concept of having to knock furballs into each other in order to push them all off the stage( except the last one ). Despite its simple form the game becomes challenging very quickly as the more you advance in level the less possible ways to finish there are, and you may even find yourself stuck more often than you expect. Although with enough given time you would obviously find the way to complete every level eventually, the developer made sure you always concentrate on doing this faster by adding an appropriate timer set so its neither impossible nor too easy to move on. Its addictive gameplay is well complimented by the colorful, polished artwork of the game as well as its sound effects. These 2 elements ( graphics and sound ) although appealing mostly to a younger audience, aren't made too much so that it will drive away more mature people. So in conclusion its a fun game, and one all puzzle fans should consider trying!

I love this game!! It is highly addictive. Great graphics. loads of fun. I have the office workers hooked on it as well.
