AbcPuzzles


AbcPuzzles offers two variations on a tile-based puzzle game. Each uses the same basic engine, in which you move the tiles in groups of four or more by spinning them with the control located in the corner where four tiles touch. Much like Rubik’s Cube in two dimensions, the games are harder than they first look since you must get the tiles properly aligned without disrupting your previous work. AlterJig uses images, scrambling the inner blocks but leaving the outside one intact. Five images are provided, and your own properly formatted bitmaps can be used. Cyclanoid is similar, but your task is to arrange the tiles in rows to match the icons displayed along the game-area border. Demo modes and documentation are included for both games.

AlterJig is a tile jigsaw puzzle game. You select one of several graphics supplied with the game or create your own puzzle from any bitmap.

Tile rotation is controlled by left and right mouse buttons. It sounds easier to solve than it is. There is a brief help file, but the demo mode helps you understand the game, which is pretty self-explanatory.

BoXiKoN


BoXiKoN is a fun and addictive puzzle game of strategy and logic. The game belongs to the Action Puzzle genre but BoXiKoN really is quite different. There is a large emphasis on planning, organization and selection and less on arcade style quick reactions. There are 15 levels and more than 60 shapes of increasing complexity with which the player is free to position anywhere in game grid. This offers more freedom for creative logic and strategic foresight than the usual falling shapes style puzzle games. BoXiKoN is optimized for Windows XP but should work on any system with DirectX 7.0 or better. The game is also available for Pocket PC.
