Mindtrap is an abstract puzzle game where players arrange up to 24 colored blocks, grouped in fours, to form correct color columns. The game uses a square cursor that rotates four blocks at a time by 90 degrees left or right, requiring careful planning and spatial reasoning.
With nearly one million levels, the game increases complexity by introducing multiple floors and blocked paths, demanding strategic moves both horizontally and vertically. A password system allows players to save progress and return later.
