Why we picked this?

Tap and drag your finger across the screen to select a column to drop your circle into. Leave your finger on the screen to see a preview of what will happen when you release. When a circle lands, it will fire lasers and shrink the circles below it and on each side of it. Large circles will shrink one size, and the smallest circles will disappear, possibly creating a massive chain reaction.  Keep dropping circles until you can’t drop anymore. The game features four modes, five game types, and leaderboards via Game Center.
