How to play Cerkio
You can work the whole thing out by playing it. Point, click, done: the mouse is the entire control scheme. It is built tall rather than wide — comfortable one-handed on a phone, centred and uncropped on a monitor. Take the first run as practice and the second one seriously.

Why it is worth playing
