Mindbusters

Copy a picture by sliding rows. The target shows 8 rows of 12 pieces, each a window into a longer string, and your grid has the same rows at other offsets. Choose a row, slide it until it lines up, and repeat against the clock. Three puzzles run from Bend Your Mind and Bruise Your Mind to Blow Your Mind, with the best time for each kept for the session.

Controls: Up and down pick a row, left and right slide it; the right button gives up.
