Game Giveaway of the Day: Shellblast

By: Derek Yu

On: November 20th, 2007

ShellBlast, the sequel to Ac!dbomb, is today’s Game Giveaway of the Day! To call this puzzle game an advanced version of Minesweeper seems like a disservice, but then again, it doesn’t seem entirely inaccurate. It’s fun, in any case, and my only real complaint with the game thus far is that completing missions feels anticlimactic. But hey, I guess that’s kind of the nature of bomb diffusal, right?

The full version of ShellBlast is ordinarily a measly $5, so if you really enjoy the game, you should shell out some cash for it (wink)!

Note: so in order to qualify for the giveaway, you must actually install the game before the time ends. Simply downloading the installer is not enough.

Ac!dbomb

Now, this is one sweet game. Since there’s only three levels to play in the preview, forgive me if I slack a bit and do a little copy-and-paste action.

Ac!dbomb is the latest release from Mr. Chubigans, developer of Vivid Conceptions and Sandbox of God. This particular effort has bomb defusing elements from Metal Gear Ac!d 2, in which you race against time to uncover the pistons hidden behind the tiles.

Beams of light can be used to reveal the number of pistons underneath each line of tiles. Just like Minesweeper, you can left click to mark a tile as safe or right click to designate one as a piston. The number of pistons in each level is displayed on the top right of the screen.

Expect more stages when the full version drops next month.
