I love this game. No strategy, just mindless clicking and dropping. The goal is to get rid of of all the blocks on the screen and end with none, but it's harder than it looks. This has undo and various levels which make it better than the free version below. |

Database. This is where I keep all my lists: books I'm looking for, with author, title, category, and comments; cable channels; my prescriptions, etc. You can use the demo version with one database; if you want more, you have to pay, but it's worth it. You can create your own databases from text files that you convert to comma separated Excel files, then to databases with a tool they give you. |

Boring game. |
| Tip Master | Ascii Computer Center | $8.00 | |
