About Fingle

What is Fingle?

Fingle is an iPad puzzle app similar to the classic game Twister. Users cooperate on one screen to match and hold a number of squares of two differing colors to the corresponding targets.

Two hands and any number of fingers end up intertwined as players drag the squares across the screen, sometimes colliding, sometimes twisting together in comical knots, and finally succeeding in holding the square to the target and advancing to the next stage.

Fingle is billed as an app designed to spark romance between the players, and some of the gestures users have to make to complete puzzles are mildly suggestive, but the game can easily be an amusing and silly puzzle game for kids.

Fingle is rated for players ages 9 and older because of some mild and infrequent mature themes. The game is available for iPad users only, and costs $1.99 to download from the iTunes app store. Reviews unanimously agree that Fingle is a good time, bringing laughter and fun to the room.

Is Fingle safe for my kids?

The Fingle gaming app is safe for kids. The game is rated 9+ due to infrequent, mild mature themes, which is reference to the fact that the game is meant to facilitate flirting.

That said, for younger kids and siblings, Fingle provides a library of entertaining puzzles for them to work together to solve. Of course, the decision ultimately lies with the parent, but most young kids will find Fingle to be harmless fun.

One reviewer did comment that there were some suggestive gestures that users had to make to complete puzzles, which may be a concern for parents.

All things considered, Fingle does have a certain purpose, and that is to provide a game that encourages flirting between people, but it can double as an app that encourages cooperation and problem solving while being a great time.
