About this game

A real-time puzzle where each player races the sand timer to place a flock of birds so every bird's individual wish is granted. Everyone solves their own board at once, then compares results, and each unfulfilled wish is a penalty. Variable difficulty means it scales from gentle to genuinely fiendish.
