Magnets is a puzzle
game based on the
attractive-repulsive
dynamics of magnets.
The aim of the game
is to take out all
the little magnets
placed on the game
field, while 
preventing them from
sticking together,
within a fixed
maximum time.
Initially, the player
chooses a magnet
(target magnet) to
be taken out by means
of a special magnet
(leader magnet). He
can use the leader
magnet either to
repulse or to attract
the target magnet
and the other magnets,
possibly sticking with
them, but other magnets
must not stick together.
If this happens, the
just previous situation
is restored, but a 
certain amount of
time is consumed.
When a magnet has been 
taken out, the player 
chooses another target 
magnet, and so on. 
Target magnets can be 
chosen amongst the ones 
of the current valid 
colour, stated by the 
CPU, and shown on the 
top-left corner of the 
screen. When one or more
magnets are stuck with
the leader one, the
player can detach them
with a specific key,
after which he has a
few seconds to move to
a new position. The
leader magnet can
also be turned around
its positive pole,
together with possible
attached magnets.
