Walnuts is an arcade game similar to an arcade classic that involved falling objects that you have to catch in a basket. In Walnuts, you get three lives and several levels that require your intense nerves and skill at arcade games. You can customize the game very easily by changing speed, number of lives, and rock frequency. Rocks fall occasionally, and when they do, look out because its never a god sign. Avoid the rocks, they will crush your basket and make you loose a life.

The game has been very nicely constructed, and its a rather nice "Windows" version of the Atari classic. (e-mail me of you find out the name of it) In the game, a squirrel drops walnuts from a tree, and you can use your keyboard, mouse, or joystick to move the basket around desperately trying to gather up all the walnuts. Miss one, and your dead (you loose a life.)

I recommend this game to arcade fans. It has a lot to offer you and you will keep coming back for more with this one.
