Doctor Acorn 2 drops you into a puzzle challenge you can start in a couple of seconds. It leans on puzzle, so expect a steady difficulty curve. It works the same on desktop, tablet and phone, and your progress picks up where the game left it.

How to play Doctor Acorn 2

If a round goes badly, restart — attempts are cheap and it is usually the fastest way to improve.
