SNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD!!! That game is addictive. Do not play it if you have intentions of accomplishing anything tonight, tomorrow, or in the remainder of the week. Collapse is good too.

PopCap Games makes some great games for Windows.

Easy to learn, difficult to master!

Bejeweled, Alchemy, Seven Seas, and maybe they have some new ones. Go check it out.

Snood is nothing like bubble bobble once you actually start playing. I never did get into it myself, but my friend has wasted many hours of his life playing that game.

I had a friend who was playing snood EVERY FRICKING TIME I went into his dorm room last year.

NO JOKE.

I refuse to download that game

i already play bust a move (bubble bobble) and bejeweled/alchemy on my Clie, i guess its ok for PC. Any other good ones?
BTW you guys are crazy, how can u get so addicted, it gets boring after 10 minutes max.

I remember this old game that was sorta like bejeweled, but more fun (yes it's possible). It has balls or blocks where you would chain together as many as possible to before making them dissappear. You could chain like 2-100 of them together before making them dissappear and get points.

I'm addicted to Tetris Attack for the Snes (emulation)

 

[Byte]

[joinT]

I downloaded Soldat a while ago cuz I got the link here. Man it's addictive too

I've got Pretty Good Solitaire (www.goodsol.com) and have had it for ages!! There are so many different solitaire games, you won't EVER get bored!! Even multi-deck games. There is a free demo.

Also, try www.pogo.com. They've got lots of fun games...my favorite is Poppit. Similar in a way to Bubble Bobble, I guess, but I like it better. The games are free to play, you just have to set up an account.

Have fun!
