What makes a good puzzle game? Usually levels that teach one idea at a time, a gentle but real difficulty curve and a calm pace — and Throw Bomb has each of them in some measure. The skills it leans on are logic and patience; both improve noticeably after a few sessions.

Tips and tricks
- Count. Tiles, moves, colours, matches — many puzzles are secretly arithmetic, and a quick count reveals the plan.
- Play with sound on if the game has it; audio cues often confirm a correct move before the animation finishes.
- Work backwards from the goal. Ask what the final state has to look like, then ask what the state before that must be.
- Use undo or restart freely. Experimenting is how you learn the mechanics; there is no penalty for trying an idea.
- Because this is a Physics game, use momentum rather than fighting it.
