This is an interesting game, even if on some points the instructions weren’t very clear. I was in tutorial and they mentioned dropping a balloon. I’m sorry I don’t have a 3 button mouse, and I never did figure out how to set a balloon down, which would cause problems eventually.

In this game you must gather together 4 balloons and they will poof. You have a gatherer that has 4 sticky spots, and when you place 4 balloons on it, poof. The balloons are laid on a table like arena, which can have bumpers, and other obstacles, which is one reason that laying a balloon down would be useful.

The balloons are all quite pretty, and so is the rest of the game. If the 3D bothers you, you can change it to 2D. You can play Puzzles, Surviver, Challenge, and Ghosted-ghosted is not for the faint of heart, there are little ghosts on the board eating balloons and moving you around.

In the demo there are some features not available, and only 2 modes with 20 levels, and you can only play for 14 days. If you register this game you will get, among other things, 4 game modes and 120 levels. Even if you can’t figure out how to drop a balloon, check this game out anyway. It is very pretty and quite unique.

The people who wrote the program did a good job, now all we gotta do is get better docs from them.
