Review:

The objective of Brickshooter is to attempt to match blocks of corresponding colours. It is a game of wits and intelligence - bringing you back to earth when your brain falls asleep.

The objective of the game as mentioned earlier is to match blocks of corresponding colours. It's difficult to explain how the game is played, rules, etc, but I'll try. There are blocks on the perimeter of the playing area. You must select the blocks on the very edge, near the playing area, to set them up on the playing area. When you move your mouse over a block, an arrow appears. The arrow indicates which way the block will move when you select it. 3 or more blocks of the same colour must be arranged in an L-shape, horizontal or vertical line. There are many more rules. You must download the game and figure some things out for yourself. The game is no piece of cake. You must have your plan outlined in your head and be ready for absolutely anything.

The game's cool and all, but I've seen better. I, personally, just think it's too difficult and once you're stuck somewhere on the playing area(trust me you will be), there's no way of getting yourself out. The concept of the game is not as exciting as people claim it to be. It's too boring - no originality. Any toddler could've mustered up something like this.

Conclusion:

It's a game...with no originality. We have all seen things like this in other games. It's good, though. I would play it to wake my brain up.
