Chain Reaction
Chain Reaction is a fairly unique puzzle game in which your goal in to activate all the neutrons (little balls)on the playing field by use of uranium and radium balls. The game is a bit difficult to explain so I won't go into much detail on the gameplay, just the basics.
Both types of balls have different reactions when the are placed and activated: Radium will create a line going in a direction which is specified on the radium ball, and uranium will activate all balls in a limited surrounding area. The object is to place all the balls in positions where their "radiation" will hit the other balls, activating them, which in turn activate other balls, hence the games title, "Chain Reaction". Getting everything just right can be quite complicated and take more than a few tries, but it is alot fun.
The graphics are pretty nice, even though this kind of game does not really require special graphics, they still make the game more fun. The music is excellent, especially the first track, which is taken from one of the songs by the band "The Offspring". You may not share my tastes, but if you do it's good stuff.
There are 30+ levels in the game, and there is plenty of reason to finish all of them. I'm not gonna spoil it for you but there is a "Hidden Features" option which you can open really cool stuff in as you progress through the levels. Most of it is really cool stuff that is worth playing for. The game is great anyways, so you'll probably end up trying to beat the game even if not for the hidden stuff. But let me just say that one of the hidden stuff is a mini-game that is a great puzzle game in itself and that I was playing it nearly as much as the actual game!
Bottom Line: Innovative and addictive gameplay make for one of the best puzzle games to come around for some time. If you enjoy using your noggin, then this comes highly reccomended!
