Shangri La Deluxe Review

When I think of Shangri La, I envision a lush, tranquil paradise, a mystical Himalayan utopia isolated from the outside world. No worries, no pressures, an extended "retirement" with plenty of time to relax!

Shangri La, from Zylom, delivers a refreshing escape to a gorgeous realm of flourishing panoramas and soothing melodies. But, the experience, for some, may not be too relaxing.

Mahjongg Fortuna Deluxe Review

Supposedly created hundreds of years ago by philosophers or debutantes in faraway China, tile-matching game mahjongg remains one of the world's most treasured pastimes.
Credit for the hobby's continued popularity is no small part due to interactive tributes such as Mahjongg Fortuna, which cleverly update the ancient amusement for modern audiences by adding novel audiovisual enhancements.

Caramba Review

If you're a fan of The Simpsons, you know Bart's famous exclamations. "Don't have a cow, man!" "Eat my shorts!" And, my favorite, a derivative of the oft-used Spanish interjection of surprise, "Aye Carumba!"
Okay. So, Bart's not entirely correct. It's actually spelled "¡Ay, caramba!" No matter, Zylom has the mariachi band warmed up and ready to hit the streets with their unique puzzler, Caramba.

Babel Deluxe Review

According to the biblical tale, people built the Tower of Babel because they wanted to reach up to the heavens. As the tower stretched higher and higher, God sensed that the builders were becoming too cheeky for their own good and threw a wrench into the works by making it so that each person spoke a different language. Since the builders were now unable to communicate with each other, the tower could never be completed.
Fast forward to the 21st century and you, too, can attempt to construct your own mighty tower in Babel Deluxe - in the form of a new word puzzle game.

Bunny Bounce Review

Unlike those "other" video games you buy at retail, downloadable casual games all share one unique and unmistakable quality: they're easy to pick up but hard to put down.
