Gamers, put on your math caps. There's a good chance you'll get addicted to this small puzzle game, but the simple graphics and old-school interface won't immediately win you over (or convince you of the program's $17.95 price tag.) A detailed help file gives you a quick clue into the secrets of the game. The goal is to guess which tiles will fill which spaces following the numerical clues to the side of the puzzle grid. Guess correctly, and you'll discover the image on the grid. Difficulty levels can be increased by adjusting the field size and number of squares therein. If you get stuck, you can easily bail out and get the solution. We like the addition of a puzzle editor that can handle image files and convert them into custom puzzles. The drawback is the graphics are incredibly simple, and images are bitmap, but the challenge is there all the same. While the trial version limits some features, it doesn't prevent you from getting the most out of this brain twister.
