   Here is an online puzzle game I thought I'd share. It can serve as a challenge to the stereotyping that men are better then women when it comes to engineering and figuring out how to make things. So, anyone up the for task?

   Hey that’s a cool game for free. I have a similar commercially bought arcade game called Chain reaction where you have to move a purple dragon from point a to point b using a variety of tools including hair driers, pivots, planks, balloons, gears, motors, chains and a whole host of other tools. You also get a levels editor to make your own levels. I think there's a community as well where you can share your custom made levels, so there’s the potential to have hundreds of new levels for free. I bought the game about three years ago and play it often.

   I came across another flash game called Chain Reaction. It's not the same game, but I thought it worth posting here:

   I highly recommend the arcade version.

   Then I found the following which has been posted here before, but is now hidden in the depth of the forums somewhere. It's called freeware game of the day and you can get it by following the link below to the TIG website (the IG stands for independent gaming):

   I'm waiting for the developer to release the commercial version of Crayon Physics. I tried the freeware taster earlier this year and it was excellent. If you like Crayon Physics you'll probably like Tower of Goo, which is also freeware. It's the introduction to a game called World of Goo that should be released sometime before the end of the year. I pre-ordered it and ended up beta testing the first full level and it was brilliant. One of those original games that rarely comes along these days.
