    Zombie Minesweeper Preview

    If you're like me, you've probably wiled away untold hours in front of your computer mastering Minesweeper. But if you're really like me, you probably also sat there and said, "You know what this needs? A story. And zombies." Good news: this is finally happening thanks to Frogtoss Games' first iOS release, Zombie Minesweeper: A Love Story.

    Puzzle Agent 2 Review

    By

    Telltale Games have become a big name in point and click adventures over the last few years, but in 2010 they decided to release something decidedly different from their mainstay formula. Puzzle Agent may have offered the great narrative and adventure framework that the company is known for, but the gameplay revolved not around collecting and using items, but solving logic puzzles. Now they've brought that formula back for a second go round with Puzzle Agent 2, a game that offers everything fans of the first could want in a sequel.

    The folks at Telltale games definitely know a thing or two about cliffhangers, and the one they left us with at the end of Puzzle Agent was a doozy. Unlike their other games, though, Puzzle Agent was never pitched as an episodic series. As such, we were a little worried that the crazy mystery of Scoggins Minnesota - the eraser capital of the world - might never get resolved. It looks like we can put that worry behind us now, as Agent Nelson Tethers of the US Department of Puzzle Research will be back and on the case in Puzzle Agent 2.

    More Brain Exercise with Dr. Kawashima Review

    By

    When Brain Age became an unmitigated hit on the Nintendo DS a few years back we all should've seen the writing on the wall. Suddenly solving math problems and picking out colors became a legitimate form of gaming. But that was a while ago, does the brain game genre really have legs to keep on going? The jury's still out, but after looking at More Brain Exercise, I kind of wonder if it isn't time for a lobotomy.

    Numb3rs Review

    Numb3rs is the CBS crime dramedy that has made math not only seem sexy, but also capable of fighting crime. The show doesn't seem like an ideal candidate for a video game, mainly because making math problems fun isn't an easy task. That said, the Numb3rs game on the iPhone is surprisingly fast-paced and addictive, and it's all the more impressive because it manages to make math enjoyable.

    Numulus Review

    I'm not going to beat around the bush here, telling me the goal of your game is to gain enlightenment through solving math problems might be setting a bar that's simply to high to reach. I can learn something while solving math problems, or hone my skills at them. Heck, I can even have fun solving math problems. But gain enlightenment? That's a tall order Numulus, a tall one indeed.

    Piczle Lines Review

    I'm having a real hard time settling in to write my review for Piczle Lines, it seems I just can't concentrate. But it's for a good reason, I promise! Seems every time I think about what I want to say about Piczle Lines, I just end up being drawn back to my iPod to play it some more. It's getting sort of out of hand. (1 hour later) Doh! Happened again!

    Jim and Frank Mysteries: The Blood River Files Review

    By

    The Professor Layton formula -- which involves taking a collection of brainteasers and disguising them as an adventure game -- is quickly becoming a genre in its own right. Ever since the Professor made his debut two years ago, a number of games have attempted to mimic the formula, with varying degrees of success. The latest is The Jim & Frank Mysteries: The Blood River Files, which nails the basics, but fails to match the level of charm of its more successful predecessors.
