Subject: Flip! 1.0 - a challenging puzzle game for all ages

Flip! is a game of skill, a game of strategy, and a game of luck. The idea
is simple. Play takes place on a 3x3, 5x5 or 7x7 grid. In each position is
a double-sided tile. One side of each tile is light in colour, the other
side is dark. The tiles start out randomly turned to one side or the other.
The object of the game is to get a particular pattern of dark and light
coloured tiles on the grid. A tile that is flipped will flip some (or all)
of its surrounding tiles. In the 5x5 and 7x7 game, the tiles that are
flipped are always the 8 surrounding tiles. In the 3x3 game, the additional
tiles that will be flipped vary depending on the location of the tile.
