’2 Key’ turns on Green
’3 Key’ turns on Blue (when available)
‘Space’ resets the level

Planet Cruncher

Planet Cruncher is the aptly named title of this puzzler. Many planets roam around the galaxy, and you must draw lines around any like colored planets to pull them together and crunch them, which releases crystals for you to collect. As levels increase the planets become more active and faster, making your line drawing and planet crunching endeavours more difficult.

Planet Cruncher Instructions:
Use you mouse to draw circles around the planets.

Puzzle Freak

admin — Wed, 21 May 2008 06:16:37 +0000

Puzzle Freak is a combination board game and puzzle game. Unlike many puzzlers which can get repetitive after a short while, Puzzle Freak presents you with new challenges nearly every turn, spanning the entire range of puzzle genres. A fun game which can be played with friends.

Music Bounce

admin — Tue, 20 May 2008 21:07:09 +0000

Music Bounce is an interesting, if somewhat lacking puzzler. A series of blocks scatter the levels, and you must fire balls from the side of the screen from a position whereby all the same colored blocks will be eliminated. While this may sound difficult, Music Bounce is all setup so that there’s really only one possible firing position, making it more trial and error than anything else.

The whole music angle also seems like a tacked on addition that has no real relevance to the game. Fun for a few rounds, but may seem lacking afterwards.

Music Bounce Instructions:
The game uses only the mouse for controls.

Grow Island is a quirky little game in which you’re given eight options at the beginning of the game. Depending on the order of tasks you choose for your island, you’ll get much different results and endings. A fun game to go through a few times to see the different results that can be achieved with different choices.

Grow Island Instructions:
See the in-game tutorial for instructions. Many of the objects will display information simply by rolling over them with your mouse.

Crystal Clear

admin — Mon, 28 Apr 2008 09:09:22 +0000

Colored block puzzle games may be dime a dozen, but Crystal Clear shakes up the script by randomizing much of gameplay, making it both difficult, and rewarding. Your goal is to connect 5 blocks of the same color together, but after each move you make, more random blocks will appear on the field, potentially messing up your plans. Having a backup plan by carefully organizing multiple ways to your objective is the key in Crystal Clear.

Crystal Clear Instructions:
Left mouse click on a crystal to highlight it, then click on an empty nearby destination tile to move the selected crystal.
