Fresh new game, combining elements of arcade and puzzle to form a very addictive mix. If you like Tetris, Clickomania, BlockBuster - this one is in the same vein but quite different and entertaining. Several game modes and skill levels are included to make it even more fun. Strip and Shift Mania are for people who love meditative strategic games. Time Mania is exactly what it says - you will be hard pressed to win the game, as new blocks will appear while you are thinking on the next move - you'll have to be quick. A Demo mode will give you some extra minutes of fun, as well as an exhibition of the rules in action. The game runs on major Linux flavors (RedHat, Debian, Mandrake, SuSE, Slackware and others).
