All gamers have heard or played a game by the great design master Reiner Knizia, who has designed over 500 games and won numerous awards. He has even designed games specially for the ipod touch. One of his most famous games is Robot Master, which is a puzzle game that is extremely easy to learn, something that deserves a great plus in my book. The game play is simple, and the rules are easy to remember. So how can you play this game? -First you take turns placing numbered cards down on a 5×5 grid so you can score lines both vertically and horizontally. The score is determined by the sum of the cards. For example: 1+2+4+5+0= 12 points. But like most Knizia’s game nithing is quite that simple as you might think. Here is a little twist: 1. Pairs of cards anywhere in the line count 10x their face value (1+2+4+2+0= 25 points); 2. Triple cards anywhere in the line count 100 points regardless of their face value (0+1+2+0+0= 103 points), and that would be it. So if you are good in math there won’t be any problems for you with the gameplay. Oh, and before I forget, there is one thing that you always must keep in mind, your final score is only your lowest scoring line, and you want the highest score possible. So you have to place those cards down strategically.
This is another puzzle game that helps you do more than just lay around and “kill time”. Here you have an actual task. You have to please the Gods, which have made the stars fall into the earth. You have to help the hero, calm the Gods downs, because otherwise he cannot marry his one true love the chief’s daughter. The hero and his friends travel from one ancient island to another in order to collect the diamonds and thus rebuilding the starts in the sky, which leads into satisfying the Gods temper. You collect the diamonds by moving it on a certain direction, you make your movements by pressing the 2, 4, 6, 8 keys, when you reach to the goal position then you have finished your mission. If you have an obstacle on the way than you cannot make that move. The allowed moves, and those that are not allowed are indicated with green and red arrows. You have several elements on your disposition like, ancient bridges, which are buried under water at first, so you have to lead your totem to the activation point in order fro the bridge to rise, then you have wooden bridges, which are less stable, so you have to roll the totem, instead of making it stand up, the mud element makes your totem slip a bit, so it will make an extra movement on the direction you are moving, sometimes the activation points are on a different island, so you are going to have to use the boat in order to go there, and also you have to place the totem in a certain position in order for the transportation to go smoothly. This game consists of ten island each of them containing 10 levels, so it would be hundred levels filled with fun, adventure, and if you manage to rebuild all the stars, romance.
Who would have thought that a simple puzzle game can be so interesting and fun for both kids and adults, for boys and girls, for men and women. But Jungle Bloxx has proven that with the right amount of adventure and simple rules it is very possible. The gameplay is this: you have to guess the place where the blocks will fall to get the diamond to safety by breaking them in the process, the breaking and destroying is done by a simple tap on the block you wish to destroy. Do not be afraid of the monkeys, they are the diamonds guardians and are here to help you unlock new levels and forbidden cities. As in most puzzle games the difficulty increases with each passing level, and the game has well over 90 levels including mini games, which you must finish in order to get the map the next city or level. At each stage you have an estimated amount of how many block you have to destroy in that level, for example: 6X gives you a gold medal, 8x gives you a silver medal and 10x gives you a bronze medals. Medals of course do not play a major role into getting to the next level, they are just there for your competitive spirit. The best part of this game for me is that if you get stuck in a level, or you just want to see if you can finish it with less destroyed blocks, you can simply restart the level. All in all if you are a puzzle game lover then this is the game for you. It offers excitement, adventure and and enormous fun, which is all that a game should offer.
