To hard for me to play... Would of loved it if it had been from the bottom up...

Activate the program first, I've never had any problems with any of GOTD's programs. P.S.S. Activate the program first, I’ve never had any problems with any of GOTD’s programs.

In the Tetris tradition, this one is faster paced than most puzzle games. Allows for multiple player profiles, saved games, and adjustable options. Soothing music and beautiful backgrounds and graphics. Fun and addictive! Interesting puzzle game that combines a variation on Tetris with a color matching element and includes bonus pieces.

Tried it on a suitable system... would play better if game area was rotated 90 deg clockwise and arrow key controls rather than mouse movement control... it might be better with a real mouse rather than a laptops touchpad but i don't use a mouse on any of my pc's if I can help it. #9,#10 This game needs hardware Direct3D 3D video card, shame it doesn’t fallback to the older software MMX Direct3D renderer.

Among the problems : - Only one color-blind-unfriendly scheme. The most common color-blindness is red/green confusion (about 7 % of the population). bricks should be of different texture or something for color-blin people. - no possibility to change level of difficulty. The game is hardly playable for children (too fast). We need an option to slow-down the game for the yougest. - no support for keyboards apart US layout (does not use the system keyboard layout !). - as all other Alawar games, it does start in full screen mode, which is first annoying and second does not fit very well with multi-screen displays.
