Okay, Indeed.

Platforms: iOS, Android

'Okay?' is a game with simplistic rules and an even simplistic user interface. As you open the game, you are taken to a light gray screen with white blocks on it, and a movable black ball. The blocks disappear whenever they come in contact with the ball. Your object is to eliminate all the white blocks. The only stipulation is that the ball must clear the stage in one go. 

That's where things get difficult. See, when the ball hits the blocks, it ricochets at the same angle that it hit the ball. In terms of physics, the angle of reflection of the ball is equal to the angle of incidence when it hits the surface, so you must place the ball in such a way that it bounces off to hit other blocks. It might sound daunting but it's not so difficult to get a hang of the game.

There are 150 levels and they do get progressively difficult, with moving blocks and other channeling black boxes coming to play. If you can't figure out how to solve a level, you can resort to the hints, for which you need to watch an ad (ranging between 15 and 30 seconds), and that's the only annoying thing about the game. Moreover, I would expect a game as such to not be so heavy on space, but it is. 

Overall, Okay? is a game you could have on your phone to pass boredom by putting your analytical skills to use. So is it really Okay? Yes, it's more than okay.
