I have been a fan of
puzzle games like Tetris for many years now. Those kind of
computer games have always facinated me, and served as a perfect
pastime. And as I've discovered, there's been many puzzle games
made for years, possibly ever since Atari first came up with
Breakout. Even though that may not be a puzzle game in the truest
sense, I nevertheless consider Breakout a key lead-in to many
puzzle games that came in later years, and it has some similar
qualities, since it's meant to be the kind of game you can get
really addicted to trying out to see just how long you can go in
eliminating all those colored tiles, row by row (even maze and
quiz games, depending on the structure, can count). Plus, let's
note that Breakout was an inspiration for Arkanoid, which featured
even more challenging ideas along the lines of puzzle gimmicks!flag counter |
