Description:
One word: Addicting. This game will definitely pass those boring days at the office or in class.
The concept is simple. There are coloured balls that are stuck to the ceiling and it is your job to shoot them down. You get rid of balls by getting 3 or more of a colour grouped together so that they fall down. There is sometimes even a bonus for when you break up a group of balls that makes other balls fall down.
One very interesting thing about the game is the music, which is reminiscent of a cheesy 70's porn movie. It's not hard to start bobbing your head to the groovy tunes while you're playing.
The developers of the game have only released a Linux version, and there is a Mac version here. There is a Java version found here, but multiple peer reviews show that it is not as fun as the regular version.
Try it out, but we warn you that if you have something to do in the next hour or two, set an alarm!

By Rob on August 03, 2008Thanks for pointing that out! I couldn't find the Windows version, other than the Java one that I had mentioned before.
