The goal of this game is to reach Nirvana.
To do so, you must cross the great stream.
Hop from lily to lily, but don't stay too long on a lily or you will sink which will take you back to your previous incarnation.
Gain a new incarnation by collecting lotus flowers along the way.
To hop use swipe gestures in the direction of the lily you wish to land on, swipe softly for short jumps or use longer/faster swipes to jump to more distant lilies.
