Help me find this android game?

May have been iOS though.

You have a vertical rectangle that you push along a maze and the goal is to get it to a specific square, and you can push it from various sides to get it to lay down and up on the square part of the long part.

Thanks!

No. It has really polished graphics. Maybe it's a totem that you're rolling around trying to get to an island? I can see it, I just can't explain it. Boards made of a bunch of squares together but not completely a square or a specific shape with a totem that you're trying to get from the beginning to a specific square.

I remember Monument Valley having a totem at one point, but I feel like you would remember that game.

I'm playing it right now

But the sole object of the game was to get the totem from point a to point b by rotating.

We're talking 6-7 years ago.

Re: Help me find this android game?

Ok so this is not it but helps give you an idea of what I mean by totem and squares. Get something that's shaped like that from a starting square to an ending square. The "board" is irregular. No numbers on the board (in the game).

It kinda sounds like echochrome, but I'm not sure if that came out on phones

Re: Help me find this android game?

No, look at the picture I posted again. You have a long rectangular stick, just one, that you have to rotate on its x or y axis, through irregular terrain made up of squares (so if you are rotating on its y axis it occupies two-three squares) to get from point a to point b (a specific square).

Re: Help me find this android game?

Can you just go through your history of purchases or downloads? I know on my phone I can see stuff I downloaded years ago.

Except for the player piece being a square instead of a rectangle, it sounds like EDGE, released in 2008:

Re: Help me find this android game?

Not edge Have played that one also. I think there's like a tiki theme or island theme. The problem is that I don't know the title so I can't search for it. I download tons of free games so my games lists on both iOS and Android are miles long.

Re: Help me find this android game?

I went through my Amazon Appstore list of Apps I own, and on page 55 I found a game called Ice Cube Caveman.

The Play Store has a free "Lite" version:

...and after 129 pages of apps, that's it.

A review for Icecube Caveman states that the gameplay is similar to a game called Amtalee. I found a "Lite" version on the Play Store:

Neither But Amtalee is EXACTLY what the game I'm looking for looks like, with a more island theme.

I didn't find the one I'm looking for but I found another one that I played tons that I loved that I forgot about, Nintaii!!! That's also EXACTLY the gameplay of the mysterious game.

Off to play.... At least I can now search Games Like....

Nintaii:

I found a Flash game called Diamond Islands:

It looks like the game and its sequel were available as Java games for feature phones back in the day:

Is it not Bloxorz? That's the one I immediately thought of when you described it. And it came out about a decade ago.

No, but that's EXACTLY the gameplay Sadly Nintaii keeps crashing and in the comments I read after, Samsung S7 seems not to be supported. Off to get a refund sigh. But now I can search Games Like
