SPRING SPECIAL FOR FUEL THE REBELLION READERS!

Ever tried DinoMite? Bejeweled? Zuma? NOW is the time to try out these top titles and download them CHEAPER THAN EVER BEFORE. How? With this EXCLUSIVE discount offer from Fuel the Rebellion. Now through May 10th, you can save on some of the most-downloaded games on the internet, including DinoMite, which we have played and enjoyed ourselves here at FTR. Unlike other simple puzzle games, DinoMite has the added bonus of a slingshot-style shooter for taking out the variously-colored "dinosaur eggs." You can earn bonuses by special moves like "Cambrian Combos" or slow down the hourglass by eliminating the right dino eggs. Each successive level grows harder--you know the drill.

Our Take: DinoMite is surprisingly addictive. We played it for weeks and with the added 5% discount our EXCLUSIVE coupon brings you, you can enjoy it more for even less (that makes sense, right?).

Reviews: Mac Games, Part II

Tank O'Box is designed by the same folks who brought us Bubble Bobble Nostalgie. The Rhino, who is 11, was given a chance at this game. In the game, you are a tank, and the game play has you fighting against panzer tanks, whether to shoot them before they shoot you, or to protect your headquarters from their attacks, etc. The display for the game is set up in such a way that it appears you are playing with a military model set up in a box at the center of a children's desk. The desk is decorated with colored crayon drawings and the like. Inside the box (hence the name Tank 0' Box; can't understand why it isn't Box O' Tanks), the realistic-looking little tanks turn into black smoking hulls when hit and then disappear. Your tank can roll over randomly appearing starred icons in blue and green to earn upgrades like faster speed, heavier shielding, or double-shooting guns. The Rhino enjoys games with "army guys" or a military theme, and after playing Tank O' Box for about 15 minutes, he said, "I like this game!" He enjoyed the arcade style immensely. However, when playing the "extra" section of the game, which gives you the opportunity to keep going after other tanks until you have beaten 100 of them, he became bored about halfway through and was ready to be done. My take: At $19.95 for the full version, this game is over-priced. You can play the first five levels in the trial version, however, for free. Here's the link to the trial version:

The Best Games You've Never Downloaded

You've played a million match-three-things puzzles. You've tried some shooters out on the laptop. But here are some of those games that you HAVEN'T tried that are worth the download: Sudoku is popular for a reason. Trust us. This game can get addicting even when it's in plain black and white. Try out this aquatic-themed, Asian-music-enhanced version: (available for Mac or Windows) If you've never tried Mahjong, and chances are you haven't because, let's face it, you are intimidated by the picture of a bunch of old Asian women beating your pants off--well, again, you're missing something. Mahjong is about strategy, and you will pick it up pretty quickly. Winning, though, that's another story. This one's got some good graphics to enjoy when you're stumped for a move. Anyone remember Populous? The game where you were a god, and people feared and worshipped you? If you do, or even if you don't but the idea of an entire race relying solely on you for their survival appeals to the megalomaniac in you, try this: If you haven't played Diner Dash, you've probably heard of it. And now there are all kinds of similar games, from beauty salons to hamburger stands. But for the real deal, Betty is the girl to go to. Betty's Bar needs you, Dude. Don't disappoint her!
