Archna's Game Of The week: Klax

Deceptively simple, this one will have you playing for hours. The aim of the game is simply to build up a pile of the same coloured tiles. Use the arrow keys to move the paddle and then click the left mouse key to drop them where you want. More points for the more tiles you get in a row, column or diagonal.

Note from Martin: Why it's Archna's Free Game of the Week
You'll notice that it's Archna's free game of the week, much like it's Andrea's Freebies. MSE Archna is a stalwart of the team, and in charge of making sure everything's organised, sorted, collated, checked, researched and generally spiffing in the e-mail - as well as being a seriously good researcher.
Sadly though, I noticed that occasionally she loses focus and catch her playing the games that we put at the end of the e-mail. She persuaded me this was part of her 'testing work' - so now it's an official part of her job. She gets to choose the games each week! Blame her if they're no good (and as for why her name's in pink.... I'm really not sure!)

Doesn't seem to work for me- I can move the paddle and collect but can't drop them off- maybe I am just being a bit thick!0

You have to press the space bar when you want to release the tiles

Did you try it on the hard level? I had a go on easy and found it mildly interesting but quickly quite boring. Then I had another go on hard level and all of a sudden found it a lot more challenging and addictive! A lot more colours make it more frenetic and you have to start making horizontal and diagonal klaxes to progress past the first couple of levels.
Thanks Archna, very enjoyable!0 -

You are correct gillez. I was on the easy level. Couldn't sleep last night so thought I'd give it a go. The hard level is definitely more complex. CheersGordon Brown ate my hamster0
