The install of this game is straight forward. You can install it
any where you want. Plus it is polite enough to ask, not force you, if you want
a Desktop icon and/or Quick Launch icon.
Okay so it is a puzzle game. Which of course means that you have to put a puzzle
together. Sounds simple doesn't it? Here is what really happens. You can play it
as a strategy game. In it after every three moves another piece appears.
When you start a game in the demo you are given 7 pieces of parts of animals on
a 6 tile X 6 tile playing board. Unfortunately for you they are not all parts of
the same animal. Some of the animals you try to put together are a giraffe,
dolphin, bat, butterfly, cat, bat,ape and some birds (there are many others).
They fit together in combinations of 2 to 5 pieces. Once you get an animal put
together it disappears off the board and you get points. Still sound easy? Well
as soon as you start moving pieces around more pieces appear on the board. Makes
it quiet a challenge.
Then there is the arcade game. A new part appears every 3 seconds so you really
have to hustle to make complete animals.
There are also puzzles that you can play. In these games you have to find the
right parts and put them together. The playing boards are all of different sizes
and shapes. After you play a puzzle the first time you then get better scores in
the next times that you play by doing it faster. If you want to give your brain
a workout go right to "Big Cat Little Cat" (don't even attempt Sky Sports or
Rock Faces until you get Big Cat Little Cat solved) To get better scores I
had to call in for help. I got my 11 year old son playing. He was
better than me and really loves this game. It is much better for your kids
to be playing this game which really involves thinking than those shot-em-up
games.
In all the games you can see the next piece that is going to appear in the lower
left hand corner.
The colors and overall appearance of the game are really nice looking. It also
has pleasing music and sounds.
In the registered version you get a whole bunch more games to play.
In conclusion this game is real winner and will keep you entertained and
challenged for many a day and many a night.
