AstroPop
I know you'll say I'm insane (and maybe you're right) but I've seriously enjoyed AstroPop Deluxe. This is a little arcade & puzzle game created by PopCap Games. It's one of those little flash games that you'll play during your boring office hours.
I'm a PC gamer, so why I've played these arcade games?
1. It's a very simple game to learn. Very simple game mechanics (destroy all the bricks, putting at least 4 of the same color bricks together). Also, the game evolves as the levels unveil: an exploding brick, a brick explosion-power modifier, a brick-line clearer, virused bricks, bonus bricks... and although it's easy to play, it's hard to master (level 15 and up are very difficult to pass).
2. Presentation is sensational for this little game: you control a little ship (at the bottom of the screen) and shoot colored bricks that stack continuously from the top, but the way they explode, the announcements made throughout the game, the tension that permanently rises as the game goes... it's just cool.
3. There are 4 different ships with 4 different drivers. Two of them are playable from the beginning, the other 2 are unlocked by playing through the levels with the first ones. The have different goals, different special powers, different way to upgrade their ships. It's like 4 little stories but fun to follow.
4. It has the advantage of being this fun little game that you'll install on your laptop and take with you on a trip. It's tones of fun and excitement.
This game runs on different platforms:
1. Flash game right from the PopCap.com site
2. AstroPop Deluxe on your PC
3. AstroPop Deluxe on Xbox360
4. AstroPop on your mobile :)
I'll definitely give it a 10 for being the fun little game that I enjoy so much.
