It was a pretty fun and challenging puzzle game.
Pity it couldnt come with a level editor or else I’d have found this a keeper.

It turned out to be a perfect download for a no school snowy day. Both the 6 year old and 10 year old enjoy playing it.

I’m happy because the kids are playing a brain challenging puzzle game instead of those fun but otherwise time-wasting arcade games.

Really cute game. Fun music. I just wish I was smart enough to do these maze games. To get that little bear onto that little iceberg is so frustrating!

Game is a lot of fun. I’m glad to have it on my machine so when my niece and nephew visit they can play IT and not hurt any other programs or data on my laptop.

NOTE: when I ran it for the first time my virus program (Kapersky 6.0) gave me a “Proactive Defense Warning” saying: “Detected ‘riskware’: Hidden Install: Running process (PID: 4092): C:\Program Files\Puzzle Islands\PuzzleIslands.exe. Further Info: Program module C:\Program Files\Puzzle Islands\game32.img installed and running without user interaction. This activity is similar to Trojan Downloader/Dropper.”

Also note that I chose to disable the offending file and my game ran just fine. Makes me wonder what that file was for if it doesn’t affect the game? Perhaps it affects some part of the game I haven’t tried yet.

“Cannot Select DB” — I have been getting this small message in upper left of page each time I try to access “Fourms” from top of page. Has anyone else had this problem ? Any ideas ?
Thanks …

I have downloaded several GOTD & GGOTD programs and find them amusing, and sometimes useful, depending on the program. Yesterdays GGOTD (Magic Ball 2: New Worlds) did not give me the full version. All I got was their usual 60 minute trial version. I know this is unusual for your site, but wanted to let you know of the problem, in case you get new users that might think GGOTD is bogus because of this type of thing.

Todays game looks good so far!

PS- I tired to post this to forums, but that doesn’t seem to be functioning right now either. Thanks for your dedication, and usually well managed site.

Sorry, when I said “double click on install” above, I meant “double click on setup” :p
