Really appreciate the UI, dragging color onto other color, backtracking, and general fiddling works really well. I never thought it marked the wrong thing and it manipulating the chains was intuitive and helped getting to the answer.

This is a great example of level, and puzzle design. The way it goes from a couple of easy levels into one or two harder levels is great. It gives you that feeling of accomplishment and challenge at the same time. This is definitely a favorite and a five-star game. Keep going!
