Was a fun game last I played it, it's a shame that they had to release the art under a non-DFSG-free license.

Crack Attack! It's a fast paced Tetris-like game.

whats so funny? :wink:
there is no other purpose to a game but time wasting entertainment and one game wastes time at the same rate as another - so one is just as good as another
