A handtastic puzzle that leaves no hand behind! Full of charm, innovation and originality, but very easy to learn!

Community Insight:
We played this in our childhood and we still love it today.
We love this game. It's so much fun, it sometimes takes awhile to solve. We just purchased joining hands 2. We hear it's even better.
Glad we found this app. Fun and challenging.
Cool little puzzle game that is very well designed and doesn't take too much thought or effort. Just perfect fun for killing boredom.
Love it! This game is challenging without making us want to give up.
Smart puzzle concept, finely tuned difficulty and ramp up. Can't ask for a better iPhone game than Joining Hands.
A neat game, it's been fairly easy so far but is slowly getting harder. The characters are quite cute too, we're enjoying it quite a bit so far! It's a bit addictive.
So much fun! By addictive and easy to play.
This a cute puzzle game with fun music. We're glad we gave it a chance.
Good game, kinda easy at first though.
This is a truly amazing puzzle game. It may look easy at first glance, but it gets very challenging and it is very fun.
We are in love with this game. It's easy but not too easy and it's fun. They even make cute noises, and who doesn't like that?? We give it an A+.
There's nothing bad or boring about this game. It's simply good.
Challenging and fun yet simple to learn. Cool art style. What more could you ask for.
Great game balance – just challenging enough to keep you playing.
Honestly one of the best puzzlers on iOS. Highly recommended.
Very entertaining and challenging! Wonderful to play!! Highly recommended.
Surprisingly high number of levels, and is oddly charming. Could use more difficulty, but adequately kills time.
Entertaining and simple puzzle game. Beautiful to look at. The developers did an excellent job.
Great fun! Very relaxing!!! AND VERRRRY addicting.
Very cute, and a bit challenging.
A easy game to learn hard game to put down. Already addicted.
A unique game and just challenging enough to be fun without being frustrating.
We love this app and it is really fun to play.
A Fun yet simple game that makes you wonder and try different things. Simple for a lazy day, yet fun enough for any day.

Challenging, charming, fun, and addictive! Great game.
Awesome game with great concept and cutest art.
Cute little puzzle game…once you get the patterns it was an awesome game!!! Download it today.
Glad we heard about this. We're surprised it took this long. We love it. Can't wait for the sequel.
Very Challenging, ya gotta be persistent and willing to try new combinations.
Simple concept, challenging execution. It starts easily enough, but becomes more complicated and more addicting! Edit: NEW LEVELS! THANK YOU.
A fun little game, gets your mind going.
Enjoyable puzzle game with enough of a twist to make it unique.
Simple concept that becomes more challenging as you progress. Children especially would have fun with this App.
Love this game. Thought it was too easy at first. It's not.
This game is so gay just kidding its fun.
Some levels are easier and some are super tough. A great game to get you thinking and rethinking.
And challenging, but not too hard. Everyone in the family plays this.
This very charming puzzle game is very easy to play and quite enjoyable. While we are finding the bulk of the first 40 or so levels to be pretty easy, occasionally we feel challenged. There are plenty of levels so we are sure later on the difficulty will go way up. The game is very polished with really cute graphics and sounds and the variety is pretty good. This is not to be missed while the dollar sale is on and still worth it if it isn't.
Hoping to see more levels or maybe more versions.
An engrossing set of puzzles for young and old. Our 5 year old grandchildren enjoy it as much as we do and the 7 year olds have, on occasion, helped us solved puzzles when we're stuck. One change would considerably improve the experience. The solved puzzle is wiped from view immediately upon completion depriving the player the satisfaction of viewing the winning combination. Additionally, you sometimes solve a puzzle by accident when you are just staging characters. It is very frustrating to be denied a chance to see the solution.
Simple but challenging. And totally addictive.
We've been having a bunch of fun with this game. While the first few levels may be easy, the difficulty ramps up quite well. We're about 70% through and finding the puzzles to have the right mix of being satisfyingly difficult, yet being solvable in a reasonable amount of time. The graphics are quite cute and the controls are easy to use.
When we need something to do for a bit, this is our go to game. Challenging, but fun. Higher levels make you definitely think. Cute graphics, guys with the stiff arms drive us crazy. A good game to buy.
Simple, but addictive puzzle game with some very challenging levels. We look forward to more.
We love this game. Please make more levels.
THis game is AWESOME,… We love it.
We play this game as a family and on our own. Sometimes it is frustrating, but by working together, we always find the solution. Fun.
