The new Neo single player is a good new version of Arkanoid - lots of colour, great sounds and new music.

The classic version is marred by being "set" in a noisy arcade, so there's only a small view of the game on a virtual cabinet, complete with excessive "fake CRT" curved screen, and loud background sounds that clash with the game sound.

Online mode is deader than a very dead thing. If you're lucky there will we one other real player. You will win every match because the AI is poor.

So overall, a limited recommend - only buy this if it's a) 90% off (or better!) and b) you want to play solo or local versus.

Sorry, the screen shake is just too much - gave up.

Updated: Either they added an option or I missed it - you can now turn off the shake that made it unplayable (second icon from the left at the bottom left on the main screen, not in the options page)

So it's now just very, very repetitive! I highly recommend using the auto-pop option (first icon on the left at the bottom left on the main screen, not in the options page) if you want to avoid killing your mouse or finger.

The story is kind of sweet, but I'm not sure it's really an enjoyable game; more electronic bubble wrap - which is I suppose what they were aiming for!

Beautiful. Clever. Short.

(I started it for the first time and played it to completion in one short session. Buy it on sale.)

Remarkably well designed and implemented game, for what looks from the credits like a school project. Beautiful to look at, a fun game mechaninc - this could easily be expanded into a more fully fledged commercial offering.

A fairly simple point-and-click adventure game (A Lucasarts mind-bender this is not) but really well done, with an interesting time flipping mechanic.

About half the achievements are part of the storyline, the rest can be deduced from thier names without any need for hints or guides.

Gentle, relaxing puzzler that's nice to look at.

Aaargh - The Green Man!!!

This s a well crafted game that will induce frustration in all but the most milli-second timing, pixel perfect gamers!

I've enjoyed it but there's a lot of backtracking over some stinky hard screens...
