Sorry.

Was rather busy this few days. I'm totally no mood in writing any games. Oh, maybe I have not found any games to play with.. Yea. Plus our beloved ELeafy is busying working in some Lala Land. That's why there isn't any post for the past few days.

I will try to find a nice game to play tomorrow and share.. =D

Picross DS


Picross is one of the puzzle game i like. At first glance, I thought it's some sudoku but after playing I find this game is easier than sudoku~

I believe some of you knows this game as this game was also previously released on Gameboy. Back then... More than 10 years ago. It was Mario's Picross but the game is the same I think.

Basically you have to fill up the grids with the give clue to the sides. It's quite fun cos it's like to place each pixels to the image and finally uncovering the picture. This game isn't difficult for me. I don't like sudoku because I think it's difficult and it requires a lot of thinking.

I found one trick is that we have solve from outer to inner. The same approach as playing jigsaw puzzle. The digits showing the number of grids to be filled is in order.

By reading my description here isn't enough. Don't worry there's a tutorial in the game that can help you get started and start solving! Check out this game in store now~

Plants Vs Zombies

Found this on my cousin's website. It's a peashooter and walnut plushie made by somebody, it's really cute. =3 These two character are from the Popcap game, Plants Vs Zombies.

Nintendo: Piracy to Blame for 50 Percent Drop in European Sales

Source: http://e4924611.tinybucks.net

Rampant piracy has slowed DS software sales in Europe by nearly 50 percent, says Nintendo.


Software sales for the Nintendo DS have recently plummeted by nearly 50 percent in Europe. The reason for such a massive decline? According to Nintendo, the blame falls squarely on piracy.

Gamasutra reports on Nintendo's claim that rampant piracy is responsible for the dropping sales in Europe. Nintendo monitored just 10 overseas websites for illegal software downloads, and, according to their findings, these sites racked up over 238 million counts of piracy during the month of June 2009 alone. The company says that if you factor in the average cost of DS games, that's nearly 11 billion in lost sales.
The falling sales in Europe look especially grim when compared to the software numbers from the same period in the U.S. and Japanese markets, which have seen sales drop 11 and 7 percent, respectively (via Asahi Shimbun).
Nintendo president Satoru Iwata hopes to combat piracy by releasing new hardware, like the upcoming 3DS, designed to make running illicit software more difficult for pirates.

Monster Forest SEA!

Latest game brought to you by Asiasoft~

*drum rolls*


It's the MONSTER FOREST!!!

Don't get confused by Pet Forest and Monster Forest, they belongs to the different forest in the forest world. :D

I have not played this game just that I went to check my email today and found out that I have received a Closed Beta code. Since I have the code might as well don't waste it so I gonna try it out when the Closed Beta launches.

Closed Beta begins on 4th May 2010. Just a few more days to go~ WHEEE! Hope it will be fun.

Before we start to play on 4th May, lets see how the game is going to be like first. You can visit the Official Site

Oh right seems like the story is a bit interesting. Heres the Introduction Story that I grab from the Official Webpage.

The tale of Monster Forest is set in the Liberon continent of the Eran World. With the discovery of a new and powerful source of energy harvested from the mysterious Black Crystal, Haye Nation soon rose to become one of the strongest nations in the land. However, the energy leakage incident soon changed the destiny of the nation.
Overnight, due to the contamination, farms, water sources, animals and all other living things underwent a huge transformation.
Despite the furor among the citizens, Haye Nation chose to continue the research and usage of the black crystals in order to retain their status of one of the top nations.
Despite their best efforts in masking the Black Crystal research from the public eye, the citizens still found out about the government’s involvement in the continuing research of the Black Crystal.
When the victims of the first energy leakage realizes that their pleas to stop the research in view of another disaster had fallen on deaf ears, they decided to form an Underground Army to oppose the continued research of the Black Crystal.
The inevitable clashes between the two forces eventually spilt the nation into two opposing factions.
At the same time, other nations also learned of the Black Crystal’s mysterious powers. Be it the desire of harnessing the unimaginable powers of the Black Crystal to dominate their rivals or fearful of harm that it could unleash upon the world, the various nations also became involved in this battle of supremacy for the Black Crystal.
With the mysterious Black Crystal the very cause of this epic battle in Liberon, enter Monster Forest now to watch it unfold before your very eyes…
Next... Let take a look on the game screens itself. By looking at the character it really reminds me of one of the musical rhythm game that i use to play..

Looks the character can be customised a lot since as stated on the website.

In Monster Forest, you can choose to dress up to six different body parts of your character, which includes the head, hands, top, bottom, shoes and eyes. Simply select and purchase various avatars and accessories from avatar merchants located in Ammonite Port and the Cash Shop. Next, you can view your new purchases in the character inventory.

I think what attracts me most is the pet system in their game. Using different pet changes the game play experience. As stated on the web page, for example you want to be warrior just change your pet to melee pet, if you want to be a healer, just change your pet to support-based. It sounds really cool but we have to check this out again later when we get to play.

There's also something called "Miniland" in this game whereby players is able to own an area similar to a home. Seems like we can customise the land.. woa.. very cool~ but before own the land, i think we have to complete certain quest first, just like most MMORPG.. On the land, we can also be farmers. hohoho.. it's getting more and more interesting.


Even more interesting is you can start a cafe business after you completed the required quest, something that is quite different from the online RPG games that i use to play. After reading through the information, I really want to try this game out!!

Can't wait to play the game! WOOTS!

For those who is interested in playing you can go get the CBT code by a few ways stated HERE
For those who already has the CBT code, download the game client HERE. The game client is about 1.1GB so it's better to download with a download manager just in case there is any interruption in between~ I like to use Web Xunlei as my download manager because normally the download speed can go up to 1mb/s, and at least it doesn't install any other craps to my computer. HOHO~


Nintendo 3DS!!

Source:http://www.unbeatable.co.uk/news/Nintendo-3DS-Out-October-2010/284037.html

 


Great news, and just in time for Christmas, the Nintendo 3DS has been given a launch date.
Following huge success with the Nintendo DS, Nintendo DSi and more recently the Nintendo DS XL, Nintendo are now launching the 3DS which is a three dimensional version of the handheld games console. And now it has been reported that it will launch in October, much sooner than the previously predicted, March 2011 launch.

A pre-Christmas launch is great news for all those DS fans, and Nintendo have ensured that this version will not need 3D glasses to experience the format and that 3D effects will be visible without.

It has also been rumoured that the Nintendo 3DS will have vibration reactions, a 3D control stick and much more. The great benefit of the Nintendo DS series is that they are very affordable including the games and are a very appealing gift for all.

The E3 gaming expo is on in June where the Nintendo DS will be fully unveiled.

Ace Attorney Investigations: Miles Edgeworth

Another Nintendo DS game that I liked. I like the story and the part where I plays as the prosecutor in solving mystery cases.

Player gets to be as prosecutor but mainly you will be in the outdoors instead of being in the courtroom. Player will also be taking up a role like a detective, player have to examine and investigate in the crime scenes and link up the evidence and things that you found logically, from there you get a clearer picture of the mysteries.

This game is a sequel to the previous Ace Attorney game. For those who doesn't know about the other Ace Attorney game which was released earlier. In the previous game you will get to play as attorney and you will be in the court pressing on the witness and the defendant. I played one of the previous version for a while. Mainly the game play is almost the same. 

The story of this game is also very interesting because you have to reveal the story by ourselves and normally there's a lot of twist here and there so.. it really keeps me attracted to the game. *grins*

Another thing is the characters are interesting and the way they presented the game. It's just like reading a comic. I also like the way they present the dialogue. It's not normally those kind that they just throw you the text. There's animation and different speed of the text popping out, it seems to be the character talking even thought you do not hear it. And and.. The character's lips seems to sync with the text too. That's really very amazing and I wonder how they did that.. Hmmm..

You won't be able to feel it only when you get to play with this game. It's in fact a GREAT game to play. I really really recommend this game..

Touch Detective!


Official Webpage: http://www.atlus.com/touchdetective/

Today, I'll share with you another NDS game~ Touch Detective! Yea, it's a point and click mystery game. I'm not a great fan of these types of games but what interest me most is the story of the game. The story is captivating~~ whee~

Player plays as Mackenzie(picture on the left), the main character who runs a detective agency in a small town(I don't remember the town's name tho) Detective is somehow their family business, seems like she's not very experienced and there is this freakiest looking guy called Cromwell who will be helping Mackenzie at times. So we have to approach him from time to time in order to solve the mystery cases.

Yea yea, the picture on the left is the guy called Cromwell. Sometimes he's quite funny but I still thinks he looks quite freaky eh.. He looks like a zombie to me. Anyways, from the offical website of Touch Detective seems like he has been living for around 300 over years, no wonder he looked so freaky~


FUNGHI!!! Our dear Fungi.. oops. is Funghi on the left is our dear companion. Mackenzie's companion in exact. Actually this small little guy does nothing but sometimes he would give helpful hints. This Funghi will follow us everywhere, so when you are bored you can disturb it. =D But all it reply is "nnf, nnf".


This character on the left is Chloe, at first I thought she was a he but actually she's a girl. This character is more of a joker. She will just randomly appears and talks a lot of crap and she likes to bully another character called Penelope in the game.



Here comes Penelope~ I don't know why this girl seems to be in trouble all the time. So far I play seems like she the only one getting into trouble and getting help from Mackenzie.





There's a total of 4 episode.. Meaning there is 4 mystery cases to solve. Actually, the cases is quite easy to solve because all you have to do is to examine every where and talk to every person, use some logic and VOILA!! CASE CLOSE!


The game interface is interesting. The top screen will have what you see the game character. At time to time you will be able to see what she is thinking. The screen at the bottom is where u click and the most of the things happening happens at the bottom screen.

This game is worth to try out and for people who is interested in the game story~ uncover the stories by yourself~~

I think there's Touch Detective 2~ Check out the trailer below and the website~




iSketch


iSketch is an multi-player online Pictionary. Click on the image above to go to the game.

This game is fun when you can play with your friends. This game is simple. Everyone will take turn to draw, the computer will generate a word for you depends on the standard you choose. You have to draw to let people guess your word and the rules is you are not allowed to write any words. However, if you play with people that you do not know, sometimes they tend to write the word and they will get penalized.

This game has a simple and neat interface. It's quite user friendly and you do not need to create an account. You just need to have Adobe Shockwave Player installed and you can just login to the game with any nickname that you have entered. After you have got into the game, you will see the lobby, below is the image.


Now, this is how the game going to be like.

You can create a room or join any rooms that is not full. Something good about this game is that you can join the room even the game has already started. If you do not want to play with your friends you can just click on the Create Room button in the lobby. Lets take a look at the Create Room screen below.

Creating the room is just as simple as ABC. All the instructions are written on it already. Very convenient eh? =D.


Now, this is how the game going to be like.
 The box beside the list of the username is where you spam all your answers to the drawing, Yea! SPAM!! SPAM is the key to win the game, spam every words that you can think of. You will be notified when you get the correct answer. There is not time limit to draw but the time will start count down when the first person gets the correct answer.
The box below the list of username is where you chat but normally i just chat in the answer box. Only sometimes I will chat at the correct box. BUT BUT! Thats a bad example, its still best to chat in the box below because when u talk and ppl spam words, you will have to keep scrolling upwards to read the message. SO! Please do chat at the box below!
You can see the very big white area. Ye~ That's the place where you draw when you turn comes.

Finally the after 10 rounds of drawing and spamming of answers the winner will be show. CONGRATULATIONS!


For the image, ignore the GAY thing.. I don't know why the Team is GAY and thats when I join the game halfway. That's about it! I will recommend this game to everyone. Because this game is multiplayer, the game experience might differ for different individuals.

Left 4 Dead

Playing horror games just freaks me out and I'll get short tempered easily. Just roll across this Left 4 Dead Trailer. Initially, I told my friend to try out this game but after watching the trailer it totally freaks me out. EEKS~

Mystery Case Files : Dire Grove



Another Hidden Objects game that I'm gonna review on. People who enjoy a nice hidden object game with a nice ambiance and a very good story layout, you are really going to love this game. This was still on the top 10 list on BigFishGames a few weeks ago, it has dropped down to top 20 since the releases of new games.

I was very attracted by the story summary at first, which prompted me to try out the game myself: A group of graduate students has gone missing in Dire Grove. There is a Celtic legend passed down from many generates to generations, considered it to be fairy tale. However, there is this artifact that has just been uncovered in United Kingdom, which proves that the fairy tale may not just be an fairy tale. The group of graduate students stepped foot into Dire Grove, which seems abandoned and ended up missing in the town. So it's now up to the player to uncover the mystery and find out the whereabouts of the students.

What's very different about this Hidden Objects game and the others that I've played in the past is that most of the Hidden Objects just let you go through a lot of different puzzle maps and give you a list of what you need to find. This game, however, instead of being asked to go through lots and lots of lists, you will have to take pick up objects and do something to them to uncover more puzzles and mysteries. Some things are pretty logical, when you completed a hidden objects puzzle, you will get an axe from the puzzle, then later you can use the axe on a pile of wood for firewood and get some warmth from the snow.



Even the start of the game is pretty interesting. After clicking the "PLAY" button on the menu page, instead of going through dialogues like most games does, it straight away starts on the game play. It's quite good in a sense that most people who started out playing a game, they already have some sort of background on it. However, there are still people who just play game without knowing the story, if that's the case, they could only slowly uncover the story, because even if people did homework on this, all they know is that graduate students have gone missing.



What really freaked me out was the screen shot of these when I went around looking for more information of this game before I decided to try it out myself. Turns out when I was playing this is that this is one of the missing students. Throughout the game, video tapes could be found on various maps, if I didn't remember wrongly, there will be a total of 20 to collect, the first tape that player found though, would be the last piece of the whole story. After you have collected all 20 video parts, you would know what happened to these students.

I like horror stories and all, but I'm also one who are scared of this kind of games, else I would have tried F.E.A.R myself. I was very very very curious about the story behind this game, and even though this scene really freaked me out I still forced myself to continue playing. The only thing that is comforting is that this game is actually meant for all ages, so definitely there wouldn't have those ultra scary things that come out to scare the wits out of you.



This is a diary/journal that the in game player would update whenever new things, or something peculiar has been found, so if you quit the game randomly, you could refresh your memory by what reading those that has been updated in the log.

The only amazing part is that when you are at the final stage of the game whereby the "bad thing" is out, the in game player still has the time to update his diary / journal.

This game pretty much gets you involved in it, because even if at times you get very fed up with not being able to find the next step, you would still continue prying for the answer. One thing about this game is that, the map is very big. Since it is the whole town of Dire Grove, there are a lot of places that you need to go to, and most likely it will gets you confused. Well, at least I did since I didn't have a good sense of direction in the first place.



I would give this game a rating of 9/10 because the story is very captivating. The ambiance itself is also very nice and eerie. I couldn't stop myself from play this game once I have started it too.

Japan's video game visionary: the console is dying

TOKYO - HIDEO Kojima, one of the world's most famous video game creators, sees a future for digital entertainment outside the box - outside any box.

Kojima, whose 'Metal Gear Solid' games have sold more than 27 million copies, says the future of video gaming is on networks that will free players from consoles supplied by the likes of his long-time partner Sony Corp.

'In the near future, we'll have games that don't depend on any platform,' Kojima said at a news conference announcing the latest installment in a game saga that began in 1987.

'Gamers should be able to take the experience with them in their living rooms, on the go, when they travel - wherever they are and whenever they want to play. It should be the same software and the same experience,' he said.

Kojima was speaking at an event in Tokyo to detail plans for the late April launch of 'Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker,' a video game he developed and directed and Konami Corp is launching for Sony's portable PSP device.

The prediction of a future without game machines from a figure regarded as both creative maverick and commercial dynamo appeared to rattle a Sony executive on hand for the event.
'It's a bold prediction,' Sony Computer Entertainment Japan President Hiroshi Kawano told reporters with a nervous smile.

'We hope he continues to develop for platforms, but we deeply respect his sense of taking on a challenge.'
'Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker' goes on sale in Japan at the end of April and the United States and Europe in June.

Kojima, 46, is known for sneaking pacifist themes into a game series that features stealth combat and elaborate plot lines that often reflect on the dangers of technology.

The latest installment features Metal Gear's mercenary hero, Snake, as he and a group of soldiers of fortune set off to save Costa Rica from invasion in 1974 by a mysterious army.

Kojima said players are rewarded for cooperating and encouraged to stun and capture - not kill - enemy soldiers they encounter in order to put them to work.

'This is software that develops management skills,' Kojima said. 'You can even fire workers, something that you can't really do in real life. In the game, I couldn't stop doing it.'

Kojima has said he hopes to develop movies as well as video games. Like recent Hollywood productions, his latest game is packed with product placements to bring in additional revenue, including AXE bodywash from Unilever and Doritos corn chips and Mountain Dew from PepsiCo.

Kojima said he hoped the release of the new game on Sony's PSP device would give his development team a sense of what works in portable gaming in preparation for his vision of gaming on demand over the Internet.
'I looked at this in part as an experiment aimed at the future,' he said. -- REUTERS

Gaia Online - Zomg! Flash MMO


Was surfing around the net and i saw this game on another blog. It's another Flash MMO. Tested it out for awhile and realised it's actually not that bad. At least, I think it's better than the Pet Forest Online that I have played. The interface and graphics is neat and clean.


This screenshot is taken when I got into the game. Everything looks so nice, the lighting, objects etc.

In this game, the weapons are called rings which confuses me at first. Because it was telling me to use the ring and i thought is those accessories kind of rings. In the end I realized its the weapon(I think). It was some kind of gun thing.

I also liked the loading screen of this game. It's quite nice and cute. I think loading screen is quite important to be nice because it's the time when the player will be staring at it for quite awhile while waiting for the game to load.



The feel of this game is like fairy tale~ Sorry if that wasn't the case but I just feel like that. Hoho. The music and the mobs jsut reminds me of fairy tale tho.

I'm not a great fan of this kind of MMORPG kind of game so I haven't been going in depth of the game. I just know there is some story and quest to discover more and you can upgrade your weapons using some kind of orbs.

Vampireville





















This is in the top 10 ranking on BigFishGames now, and it's the popular hidden object genre, whereby you will go around looking for things the game ask you to.

Horror and mysterious games are tend to be in favor now as we see games like Left 4 Dead, DIABLO, F.E.A.R and Silent Hill getting really popular. It seems to also be the case for casual pc games as most of the games on the top ranking are those that has horror themes or mysterious themes. Which also made this to be in the top 10 ranking.

We started off this game as being the apparaiser for this Malgrey castle which has been around for 99 years. Since there isn't any heir to claim this castle, the government will soon obtain the right to sell away this castle. The catch to this is that all the appraisers who have gone to this castle has gone crazy and now you will be the one who will be sent there after one of your close colleagues has gone crazy too. This is the point which makes me really want to try out the game as I'm actually really curious about the story behind it.
























This is the person you will be playing as. As compared to the whole theme and the anticipation of waiting for the vampire to come out, I would say that the character itself looks more freakish than any other things in the game. Oh well.

Most of the time, you will be tasked to find things in a particular room. Or you would be finding pieces of things, such as pieces of maps to go to some place. You would be tasked to find pieces of floor plans at the start of the game.

You would also encounter small puzzle games like this






























































































Small puzzles like this are pretty straight forward. Even if you didn't read the objective, you can click on the red book on the top left hand corner to see the objective again.

Players tend to be irritated when they are stuck at some part of the game or being stuck in this puzzles. There is this button on the top right hand corner that will allow you to skip the puzzle after some time, this is considered a good point for impatient players.

What really got me going for this kind of games are really just the story. I've played few of hidden objects games, I have to say that I wasn't really very into this finding of items. Most of the time I just go very frustrated and irritated because I can't find certain objects yet I want to know what is the story.

There are of course a few hidden object games that are really nice, especially when the story of the game is good. However, I wouldn't really give a high rating for this game though. It's okay for people who like to enjoy playing different kind of puzzle games and if you really just liked hidden object games. If you're the kind that are like me, gets frustrated easily and just ends up clicking everything but are interested in the game, I would recommend you to try other games like the Forgotten Riddles: The Moonlight Sonata, I really love that one.

Vampireville is good in the sense it has many different kind of puzzle games in just one game. You have unlimited hints, but you will have to wait for a while to use it, this is good for people like me who just want to get it over and done with and continue knowing the story. I initially wanted to spend less than 4 hours finishing this, in fact, I expected a 2 hours. Much to my dismay, when I reached chapter 10, I was shocked to realized that it wasn't the end. I was hoping it to be 15 then, and was disappointed. I was sure it will stop at 20. What really amazed me was that it stretched up to chapter 25. The story got boring and I lost my focus of what I'm playing in the end.

This game actually made you to expect that you will be the heir to the castle instead. In the end, the heir ended up to become some other random person.

I would only give this game a rating of 7 out of 10.

Scribblenauts



Scribblenauts is a game on the Nintendo DS system. This game is really fun. Especially for those who likes to solve puzzle.


Yea, write anything solve everything. Basically you have to "create" your own items using words to solve the puzzle. For example, you input "banshee", a banshee will spawn for you. Then you can use it to solve the puzzle. They really have a powerful library. Anything you can think of mostly likely they will give it to you. One thing is that the object you want must be a physical thing, must not be copyrighted object like any brands or whatever. It have to be in the dictionary (at least in the game's dictionary) and lastly not of any abnormal stuffs like porn, drugs etc.

At the start of the game you have to go through a short tutorial. It cannot be skipped but it's really helpful in getting you started with the game. You will play as the character Maxwell, the guy at the cover picture above.

There is different levels and stages in the game. There is a total of 10 levels and in each level, there is small puzzles. You will be given a hint at the start of the puzzle and you have to accomplish it. For example, you will be given a scene whereby a cat will be stuck at the tree and you have to get the cat to the girl. There's a thousand of ways ( maybe not thousand, many XD ) to solve this puzzle. I remember in my case i summon the FIREMAN. Haha. And it works~

There is also another goal for each puzzle. That is to use as few words as possible or to use lesser than the stated. Lets get a picture to refer to.


Take a look at the upper part of the picture. (equivalent to what you will see in the top screen of the DS)
You see the word "PAR"? Yea, you have to use not more than 3 words to get a par. The same concept like a golf game.  As simple as that.

Currently, I'm still trying to unlock the levels. There is a total of 10 levels. Currently I'm only on the level 3. Level 1 and 2 is really simple. Level 3, the level I'm currently at gets a bit more challenging. There is also high replayability on the levels u had unlocked, you will have to accomplish the mission given to u (your vocab bank will help you in solving =D )

Talking about unlocking levels. The levels won't just unlock like that when you complete the previous level of it. You will get to earn some points and you have to sue the points to "buy" the levels.

That's about it. Will update more when i play further. For those who have DS you may want to give this game a try. It's really fun to play.

For those who needs some guide or help here is a walkthrough (not written by me) There is a part where it contains the game dictionary. You may want to check it out in order to solve the games.

Finally check the trailer. Moohahahahahahaha~~~

Came across this game on the Facebook again. Previously I saw this game in Chinese. Now it was translated to English and allow non-Chinese players to play this game.

This game is a browser game so there is needless to download any client or what, Just click on the Play and it will open another window and the game loads. This game is an RPG game so first step of the game is.... *drum rolling* Ye! Create your very unique player~ =DD

Actually I do not like this game that much because first thing. I think the layout of the interface is messy when the first thing i saw after creating the character. Below is the screen shot of it.

Actually what you seeing here is not that bad until the quest dialogue and the NPC the side of the screen comes out. The screen will basically be filled with texts, texts and more texts.

Another thing I do not like about this game is our newly created character is not clothed with anything except! for undergarments which I think it's quite horrible not providing basic newbie wears. =_= (My character might catch a cold because of that! ARGH!)

The tutorials given for newbies is not much of help as everything is messy that i do not know where to start reading from. I gets impatient when there is too much texts on the screen.  =S

Fighting of monster isn't of any fun. It is turn-based attack. Because there is 2 modes to fight the monster. One is automatic attacks and the other is the manual. Automatic means it will automatically helps you attack the monster when your turn comes. Manual is you attack manually. Oh, one thing to state... Fighting of monster is another screen again. It is those type that you get to see only the monsters and you in the screen and start to fight each other when you turn comes etc.

That's about it. I did not manage to explore any further because it did not interest me. We welcome anyone who wish to add on to this review. Thanks. =D

Wake the Royalty

Click on the image above to the link of this game.

"Wake the Royalty" is a casual physics game. Ho ho.. There is only a total level of 25 so this game can be completed in less than a day. LOL. So, it's quite casual.

The main aim of the game is to wake up the sleeping objects, in this game the Royals which are the round objects with sleepy faces on it. In order to wake them up, all you have to do is to connect the wooden objects. There is already some wooden objects in the game, and you will be provided with either one or a few wooden objects but these objects is provided is in sequential order. So you cannot get the ones you wanted as and when you like.
The game play is very simple. However sometimes we still get stuck in certain level. (Aww..) There are solutions provided as youtube videos, just click on the Walkthrough button and it will open up another website. There is a total 2 videos which is the solution of every level. Warning - Watching the videos will result in loss of interest in the game.

Overall this game will be fun for people who wants to kill time. How I wish there are more levels to it.. =D
