Reviewed by: CNET Staff
If you think most puzzle games are too slow for you, AstroPop will change your mind. You'll likely figure out how the game works almost immediately. The goal is to match bricks with other like-colored bricks to destroy them. However, the wall of bricks steadily advances upon you, so you must use both your reflexes and your mind. Once you've earned enough points, you'll have access to the Supa Weapon, which lets you demolish many bricks at once, regardless of color. You can choose from two games, although only one of the game's four characters is available in the 60-minute trial version. The modern, sophisticated graphics impressed us, and we liked hearing the female voice comment on our achievements. If other puzzle games have lost their ability to entertain you, we think AstroPop will provide a welcome challenge.Publisher's description

Version: AstroPop 1.0
"Everything (except the price) is good about Astropop"
Summary: It's easy to understand and once you begin playing it's addicting. The only setback is the (almost) $20 you have to fork out if you want to buy it. It should be free on MSN Gaming Zone or Yahoo Games.
