Download Discovering Nature

In this game you have a chance to help Professor Jane Pinckleport and put an end to a deadly virus. So, we have to collect different types of animals for expertise. It is a tricky puzzle, where you have to select as many animals of the same type with one move, but not only this… You will match pairs, food chains, search for infected animals, play survival game, feed bears, other mini games and even more.

You will progress in this game if in all golden frames (2 at the beginning) you will have animals of the same type, they will disappear and golden frames will be replaced. You will get a good bonus, if you will collect a whole row or all animals of the same type on the playfield.

This game is not only fun, it is a great possibility for Kids to learn various animals of different parts of our world and their food chains. (Somehow I think it could be useful for adults also )
And here are some tips:
- Look careful what types of animals you have to collect! In some puzzles there are more kinds of animals on the playfield, than you need (insects or grass).
- Don’t forget that you can select animals in all 8 directions! Diagonally also!!!
- In “match same” puzzle I usually try to put an animal of the type I need in the lower frame and then fill the upper frame, you will see why
- Match pairs is the easiest puzzle, so try to collect all the bonuses (water and fire). In this puzzles begin from the top, otherwise you can destroy some pairs.
- In the “feeding bears” mini game it is easier for me to feed the farther one. If he could eat you first fish, don’t move your mouse and try to click so quick you can for some seconds. This helped me to complete the game much faster.

Have fun and learn a lot with Discovering Nature!

Hi. Sorry for keeping silence for so long, but I was out of town previous week. It’s so fun to come back home again and play my favorite games!

So, I rushed to see what’s new - and luckily, I have some very good game for discussion:

So, game title: Puzzle City

Developer: eGames

Genre: mix of mosaic, tetris, and strategy.

Similar games: any mosaic and Build-a-lot.

Puzzle City developed by eGames is presented by Big Fish Games. This is something extremely original- a mix of mosaic, tetris and strategy game. So, it’s a lot like Build-a-lot game that Heidi was telling about.

But the game principle in Puzzle City is completely different. In order to complete the tasks set in each level, you’ll have not only push the buttons, but to construct areas out of puzzle pieces moving along conveyor at the bottom of the screen.

So, as you look at the screenshot below, you’ll see the playfield is split into parts, i.e. areas. and you’re to fill each with the buildings of the same type.

Here’s what I have cleared out. Some tips and tricks for Puzzle City:

1. The goal Mz Towers sets on each level will include 3 tasks: construct a building of the required type and size, cover the required part of area.

2. If she says, you’re to build 1×1 campus(trading center or whatever) - it means you’ll have to use 1 block of campus materials that ocupies one cell on the playfield. Sorry for saying that, but it is not obvious from the in-game help.

3. You can rotate puzzle pieces just like in Tetris game to fit them in the best place.

4. If you’re doing everything correctly, you earn bonuses for your correct moves. So, with time you can use trash can for getting rid of the useless pieces, recycle device for reshaping the existing puzzle pieces, dynamite for exploding the pieces on the conveyor belt, bulldozer for demolishing the areas you don’t like etc.

5. If you have a choice between using a trash can and recycling device, better use the treash can.

6. When you complete one of the tasks for the current level, you worker appears and gives you thumbs up.

7. Once you take the puzzle piece, the area with the pieces of the same kind flashes. So, be sure to place it in this very area.

8. Never let puzzle pieces overfill the conveyor - otherwise you’re risking to fail the level.

I like the game because of its original gameplay and dynamism. But there are some drawbacks about it, that you’ll notice as you play further. And I’mm looking forward to hearing your opinion. Please join Puzzle City discussion and share your tips and tricks for this game.

Have a nice day!

We all have dreams. And it is a great feeling, when the biggest one come true, isn’t it? For me, as for many other, it is to have an own house near to the river in a quite suburb far from big city stress. Yesterday when I played this great game I had exactly the feeling!!! And after that you want only build more, Build-a-lot!

Download Bild-a-lot!

Now more about the game, some tips and tricks:
- Build more than required onthe current level – so you will increase your income!
- time is limited, don’t wait for cash to buy materials, just sell one building in order to raise some money;

- don’t forget to upgrade your houses
- you can do multiple jobs if you have enough workers
- be careful, the first action after some of your workers are free is to demolish and not to repair - In letters (after you build your post office) you will receive some money every time – so, be sure to check out every letter!
- Don’t forget about banks and other buildings – it will help a lot to build a lot!

Thank God it’s Friday. Guess what I saw today as I came to Big Fish games?..

Believe it or not, they released the second version of Abra Academy. Now it’s called Abra Academy: Returning cast.

I have a little time to rattle while my game is being downloaded - its size is 75 M!

If you don’t remember the first version, it’s enough to say Abra Academy is a magic-themed hidden object game. So, you as a young magician are to solve different puzzles in order to complete all the game tasks.

What can I say even without downloading it? Abra Academy Returning Cast has got much better and richer graphics. I’ve just seen a couple of screenshots and can prove that. Some of the levels seem fantastic.

I will get back to you in the morning with my impressions on this game. All in all, night is meant for peaceful sleeping, not for insane playing. Too pity, it’s sometimes hard for me to recognize that.

Be back in the morning. Sleep well,

It is happening again! I am in love!!! With a … Family! Ok, you will understand, if I only mention the name of this game : The Scruffs.

Download The Scruffs

We are going to help this family(frankly speaking, not the tidiest one) to find some expensive artifacts hidden all over the house and get code for secret Cryptym. What for? The grandpa knew it…. previously… And there is more than that! A shocking family secret, that he’s been hiding! So, we have a chance to rescue his marriage! For sure, you understand, why!

This game seems to be ordinary, but something about it is so great! Is it the great British English, a great dose of humor and eccentric cartoonic style (if cartoons can be eccentric!). Or maybe the lisping kids, who like to scribble family photos? The excited dog Scruffy? Or… Everyone who only has a good sense of humor will find something for himself/herself in this game.

One more question. Do you have a strategy for finding items? In most cases I try to find them on bigger object of the same color. If it is something straight (like a ruler), it could be on the window frame or table and so on. If I can’t find an object I divide the picture in squares and check them one by one. Is it the same as you do?
