Planned Game

image

In Planned, the game starts with several small squares on the screen. Your job is to connect all of them together by clicking them and making them grow. Sounds easy, right? (Hah -- doesn't it always sound easy?) Needless to say, it's a lot more challenging than it looks, because of a few rules. First off, you can't click the same square twice. Secondly, you can only click the squares a maximum of three times. Thirdly, once a square has connected with another square, you can't click either one of them.
