Initially, the gameplay in this game is pretty simple. Merely connect the atoms together with the left mouse button and then activate the molecules with the right mouse button. Each level contains several goal molecules. To make things more difficult, there are also a few obstacles. For example, viruses attempt to destroy the bonds between molecules, multiplying with each consumed bond. Antiviruses can be created by eliminating large numbers of atoms at once. This game is both very unique and very fun. However, it is often difficult to keep track of what a molecule should look like. This is a great game but it does get a bit boring after all the levels have been played through.

Spice Trade
The question posed by Spice Trade is this:
How would history have developed if the Muslims had come to dominate Europe?
The answer is in your hands. Spice Trade casts you in the role of a young man in Baghdad with little but a plot of farmland and a handful of money. From these humble beginnings you must gain wealth, power, wives, and children.
Consisting of little but static images with clickable hotspots, Spice Trade is an open-ended game of resource management, adventure, and discovery. There is no explicit goal in the game, other than to live your life to the fullest. Along the way you will scour the world for rare treasures, get into the spice and drug trades, find wives, and can even bring Europe under your heel, either by military force or cultural influence.
This is one of those games that you will either love or hate. If you're looking for action, look elsewhere. If you're looking for a small download, look elsewhere, because Spice Trade is a very large download. If you have the patience to learn its nuances, you will find yourself quickly addicted to this game. I spent several hours just wandering around the world checking out all the things I could do.
The game is written in Java, and thus will run on any operating system that has a Java runtime. You will need to know how to execute Java .jar files on your particular system.

Strike
The beauty of Japanese art has once again unearthed, and this time in a magnificently designed puzzle game called Strike. I just keep marvelling at the cool cartoonish animation of the anime character and the very classy looking gameboard. The levels (a total of 55) have been designed with mindful precision which makes it so you almost make it to the end of a level unless you take one wrong turn. As you progress through the levels, more special bricks are being introduced such as transporters and non-destroyable blicks. But in essense, you are to collect all diamonds and then reach the platform. The game instructions are in Japanese but the above intro is basically all you need to know. Also, to begin the game press Z.

Ultimate Super Stack
Ultimate Super Stack is an insanely addictive puzzle game. It is a sequel to Super Stack, though I felt this game was alot better. Although it has a format similar to that of the almighty Tetris, it is quite different, as you will see from playing. It is a long game, with 55 levels, but by no means that is a bad thing. It is 55 levels of pure fun.
The object of the game is to get a certain number of stars, by trapping existing stars between objects, and by creating chain-reactions. As zany as this sounds, playing the game is fun, and surprisingly it has a very easy learning curve.
People who program in Qbasic will know of this award winning game, which won the 2001 QB Gaming Gold Award Winner for Best Sound/Sound Editing and Best Puzzle Game. I have been playing this game for a while now, and decided it needs to come here.
From a technical standpoint, this game is superb. Although it is made in Qbasic (commonly percieved to be notoriously slow), it runs flicker-free, with great graphics, and superb sound, with the help of DirectQB, a programming library for Qbasic.
The gameplay is superb, and almost flawless. At the start, you play through some tutorial levels, where the wizard-like entity in the game gives you hints and playing methods. And if you still feel overwhelmed by the gameplay, you can read the comprehensive manual by the author explaining everything, along with little ASCII drawings of the board.
Overall, (especially for a QBasic/DOS game) this game is almost flawless. It is more fun that most Tetris clones, or anything that uses that idea. It has different play modes as well. Anyone will enjoy it, as the game is very kid-safe, and actually kid-friendly, with nice colourful drawings, but adults just the same will be drawn in by the game's charm. This game is a definate download, and a must for all puzzle loving gamers.
