Nice puzzle game with nice graphical effects.

From first sight it seems that it is only about shuffling of the squares, but as it is 3D it is more complicated (and that makes it more interesting).

I like it!

Performance is not so good

The graphics of this game are great, but they rise the level of hardware needed to play the game. If you don't have 3D hardware it will run veeeeery slowly.

The developers must have noticed this as well, since they have a "lightweight" version called Cogs GO, but this version is not available for Linux :-(

As if OpenSource, it probably find a better platform

Nice puzzles/effects.

As if OpenSource, it probably find a better platform.

Mobile. Puzzle could stay on mobile even longer than Desktop.

Netbook/Tablet also.

Although, on a powerful computer provide Anti-aliasing which greatly improve the graphics, I felt I'd better play this game on my tablet.

I almost completely agree

I almost completely agree here. Mobile is the platform for puzzles.

Still, if the game hasn't been open-sourced, that's exactly the reason, it will probably be in the app store or android store soon.
