Freeware/Indie Game of the Year

“But Tim, It’s only February! How can you say that, you’re nuts!”

To be honest, this might as well be my last post. There’s no other game I can write about that’s more addictive than Blocksum anyway. Pack my bags and head off into the sunset…

Err… translated instructions?

Join a number of tiles together by using the Z key, and their corresponding number increases. Gather a large group of blocks with the same number to make them disappear. Grey orbs can be used to remove all blocks with the same number on the field simply by connecting it to a tile. Hold the X key to move the tiles upward. Press the C key to access a pause menu. Requires the latest DirectX version to run.

As pointed out by Tomas, this game must be slapped a Health Warning.

This game needs to ported to a handheld system(PSP, DS) so bad. Lumines is great but this game is crazy.

Lol, I would not even consider Stack Attack a game. It’s devoid of… everything making games fun.

You have to be some kid of shill. That “Stack attack” game is nothing compared to Blocksum. In both quality and gameplay.

I think “Stack attack” the Anti-casual game is already better than this one :)

Why haven’t people learned to install DirectX yet?

Very cool! I like it.

But I guess there’s no point in making any more games this year. ::shrugs::

Yeah, you need the up to date version of DirectX that was released a couple of days ago. Here’s the link!

I get some crazy message about not having d3dx9_21.dll. Anyone else have this problem?

Echo and Don bring up excellent points…

What DX really needs to be installed? I’ve got an error message and I’m unable to run the shit.

If by “playing” you mean “paying for”, then soon.

Hmm. How long, I wonder, will it be before we’re playing Blocksum clones with Aztec themes?

Every time I saw a number in calculus, I was pressing the buttons in my mind and trying to combine them. This game is a government conspiracy.

Xander, you may eat your words. I almost fucked up a quiz and I did miss a homework assignment thanks to it.

That’s it. My university studies are offically screwed thanks to this (Though apparently my math skills are terrible, so actually I may never have gotten through it anyway).I think my PC will actually have to top itself to free me from this games diabolical clutches!

DOOP, I’m sorry, but I have no witty reply aside from you’re either fucking retarded or wouldn’t know fun if it raped your family. And made you watch.

Come on. It’s not that fun. I got bored after an hour or so playing it.

Heh. Yeah, if you play it you’ll see it’s got absolutely nothing in common with Lumines.
