Geddon It! 

Blackstone – Part One – 80 :MSPoints: – MarketplaceTrailer

[singlepic id=7039 w=320 h=240 float=center]

Blackstone is an adventure game, you play the part of Kate who is saving her village and friends from an evil sorcerer. It was hard to get a real feel for the game as the trial limit was short, but from what I did play it looks to be an interesting game. You move the character around the area and pick up items and complete puzzles to progress in the game. The graphics are well drawn and the game appears to be fully voice acted which sound good. I have no idea of the length of the game, but judging from the trailer there seems to be worth at least 80 :MSPoints: of content so it is well worth checking out.

Production Panic – 240 :MSPoints: – Marketplace

[singlepic id=7042 w=320 h=240 float=center]

Production Panic is a real-time puzzle game. You work in a factory and must get the products on the conveyor belt from start to finish. The only problem is there are not enough conveyor belts to do this, so you must pick up and place the sections of belt before the product reaches the missing area.  The controls work well which is essential for this type of game and the presentation, graphics and sound all go together well. The game does cost 240 :MSPoints: which is a little higher than I expected but if you are a puzzle fan you should not overlook this game.
