    Really, though, it’s a fun little game with wide appeal and a low price.

    Squares is a fun, challenging game that is worthy of your time. As long as you don't expect it to hold your attention after completion, you won't be disappointed in the experience.

    Easy to play, hard to master. Squares is a very simple game but a fun experience. A challenging mini-game that proves your reflexes, memory and reaction capacity; good and fun game for short moments.

    Although it's far from an unforgettable game, it works great to kill some time every now and then. It's a mobile concept, but it fits on PS Vita too.

    Squares is a nice time killer that uses the available hardware features really well, but there just isn't enough problem solving involved for it to be considered a great puzzle game. With too much of a focus on testing your reflexes, this is a Vita title that's best enjoyed in short bursts.

    From the moment the second level zips by, Squares makes it clear that you'd better have some insane reflexes right off the bat, or not bother playing. I'll take the latter - no matter how nice the game's aesthetics might be.

You might think at first that it is just about tapping a bunch of squares on your screen like a mobile mini-game, but you'd be wrong, so wrong.
    Soon enough the game gets more and more interesting with new mechanics like moving your PSVita around, sliding multiple fingers and tapping the rear touch pad at a very fast pace.
    Your reflexes will be tested and you will lose a lot, but the gameplay is so engaging that I found myself retrying a level as many times as needed to move onto the next one only to find new ways to test my fingers waiting for me.
    At only 5$ it's definitely worth its price.    … Expand
