You have to guess the right move, but you're running out of time. Use the orange pill to get sharp and focus on the right piece. Or use the turquoise pill to chill and slow the time. But beware, the abuse of substances can cause side effects.

A timed chess puzzle game about solving simple puzzles. It's not particularly challenging, but you can't really make many mistakes. It is entertaining enough to practice some simple tactics/puzzles.

I think they got the pills idea from Queen's Gambit. Game was playable without major bugs for me but apparently not for everyone - I've seen complaints about every piece disappearing. For me, only sometimes one of them disappeared. Their puzzle database is weak - you get the same puzzles over and over. There are no levels either, rounds start all the way from 0 and you try to make 300 right moves without losing 3...

meh, boring puzzle game, you have to guess which piece to move and where, if wrong at all you lose a heart, you don't get any hints unless you take the pills. Might be fun for someone smarter then me
