  • joemauke, on 10/11/2007, -2/+42you sure called it.....reminds me of the hours lost when Bejeweled came out.
    • YelloJello0wnz, on 10/11/2007, -4/+12Reminds me of the hours lost when Collapse came out.
    • gxcdesign, on 10/11/2007, -3/+13sound effects only made the game annoying after a minute or so
    • royall64, on 10/11/2007, -18/+12"Ok, this is lame"'d for the ads, utter stupidity, and annoying music.
    • thepolkapunk, on 10/11/2007, -2/+13Is there any way to ban sandeepkashyap from posting comments? Every single one of his comments on digg is just advertising yet another bad game on a site he's obviously affiliated with.
    • royall64, on 10/11/2007, -2/+21Press the Block/Report this User button next to it's name.
    • EmailAddress, on 10/11/2007, -1/+34How can a game that ends be addictive?? If there were a 'continue' button, then maybe you'd try and try to pass the board you were on. But to restart from scratch... that's lame.
    • themastersb, on 10/11/2007, -5/+5If this game were so good you wouldn't need "addictive" to make it to the front page
    • lippyjka, on 10/11/2007, -1/+3Wait, is it just me or is this the score mechanism seriously flawed If you want to get a high score you can just go the highest level with just reds and blues and leave 1 smiley square and then take all the non-smiley blocks: I get about 2000 every 5 seconds: which means if i wanted to, I could beat todays high score in just under 1.2 hours... Now THAT would be a waste of time
    • Rocketbird, on 10/11/2007, -1/+2Tip to the developer: Get rid of the sound that it makes when you can potentially make a square (and the little shiny thingy that the box does). I just clicked around and hovered my mouse and when it made a noise I'd let go and get the square without more than a moment of thought put into it.
    • scoot87, on 10/11/2007, -4/+2#140...like anyone cares
    • wattznext, on 10/11/2007, -2/+2@ themastersb

      If (product x) is so good, you wouldn't need advertising to get people to buy it. Dumbass
  • jewdiknight, on 10/11/2007, -7/+3If only it had a restart button.
  • pervy_the_clown, on 10/11/2007, -4/+65Reminds me of the lost hours when I discovered masturbation
    • Samsong, on 10/11/2007, -4/+94Lost??? No my friend... You weren't losing, you were discovering.
    • Filippo, on 10/11/2007, -0/+16The time one spends masturbating is not wasted, it's an investment in one's happiness.
    • phuibonhoa, on 10/11/2007, -4/+4an investment in one's hap-piness hehe
  • Eastlygod, on 10/11/2007, -0/+14Best tactic in the early levels - convert the corners to the same colour and wipe the entire grid. Most points + you can sometimes do it on the later more difficult levels too.
  • Avataren, on 10/11/2007, -1/+47want to play in fullscreen?

  • miamizkitten, on 10/11/2007, -5/+3This game is really cute, thanks!
  • daboy, on 10/11/2007, -2/+18i love the game... but the sounds make me want to kill a couple babies.
    • JudgeMonkey, on 10/11/2007, -5/+2I couldn't fault the game for that, because dead silence or a complete lack of it makes me feel that way, but once again an... ok game gets the "Addictive" label and completely fails to be so.
  • ImYourRealDad, on 10/11/2007, -1/+9Damn those green blocks!
  • *jooloop*, on 10/11/2007, -1/+3Lol @ "804 people playing it right now"
  • Lazyboy0172, on 10/11/2007, -0/+5tough game after of rounds. i managed 111199; anyone manage much more?
    • xconverge, on 10/11/2007, -0/+5140314? and that was me just sitting looking at the screen the last round i got the game over at. silly greens
    • frizzipazzi, on 10/11/2007, -1/+3121525 and 2 green left.. I hate them!!
    • SushiCW, on 10/11/2007, -1/+6230344

      The game gets pretty hard after the green level.
    • frizzipazzi, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2293270 this thing is bloody addictive!
    • SushiCW, on 10/11/2007, -0/+3317987
  • Jeifurie, on 10/11/2007, -11/+1You didn't warn me. I said it.

    HAH SO LAME LIKE KEVIN ROSE
  • ayeroxor, on 10/11/2007, -2/+15Dugg for not using "addicting".
  • biff198, on 10/11/2007, -5/+9wow, that took more than 14 seconds before I found it to be too stupid and non-addictive to continue.
  • TexanPsycho, on 10/11/2007, -1/+6You think you did well and then you see the high scores...
  • Eth4n, on 10/11/2007, -16/+2Does anyone even care that this is a shockwave game and not flash like was stated?
  • blackfog, on 10/11/2007, -8/+7booooooooooooooooooooooooooring
  • justice7, on 10/11/2007, -9/+1no digg .. usage of word 'addictive'

    ugh.
    • speaker219, on 10/11/2007, -1/+3That just shows you're more stupid than you think.
  • VeNoMmx, on 10/11/2007, -2/+14this game needs a "pause" option...
  • xxxana, on 10/11/2007, -0/+3205631.i kept trying to make a full-grid one, then you get 10000 points :)
    when the blocks are about 1/4 of an inch, it gets kind of hard.
  • JoeBaynham, on 10/11/2007, -1/+2Oh no.. in advance.. I want the next week of my life back.
  • bignetbuy, on 10/11/2007, -5/+0Buried for the ads.
  • VonCannon, on 10/11/2007, -1/+2Reminds me of Karnaugh Maps
    • spyseetuna, on 10/11/2007, -2/+1I sat thru lectures and did all the required homework on Karnaugh maps way back. Now all I remember is the name, and that they were easy and fun. Also that the prof had a giant beard.
  • cypheroid, on 10/11/2007, -2/+1I read the title as Blocky Addictive Flash Game, as in glitchy yet addictive. So naturally, I interpreted "Don't say I didn't warn you." as a warning that the game will be freezing at intervals.
    • rabidjade, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1User error. Worked fine for me on FF and IE7.
  • hmac, on 10/11/2007, -2/+1My head hurts.
  • shaheerk, on 10/11/2007, -5/+0Buried. Waste, IMO. Besides, it's tooo bulky to load on my computer (and since I'm in the 15th century with dial up...)

    No, seriously. Why put games? It's not THAT wonderful..
  • markdr123, on 10/11/2007, -0/+3Addictiveness is subjective.
  • ROYALWITHCHEESE, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2my first try was 208456. but i'm getting more and more addicted to it
  • kylehoward, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2stupid name, fun game
  • gAquila, on 10/11/2007, -3/+0OK
    - This is not a flash game, it's shockwave
    - It can not be played on linux since there is no Shockwave player for linux.

    Crap!
    • bl8tn, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2Not true.
      I just played it and I'm using Ubuntu, so it must work :-)
    • speaker219, on 10/11/2007, -0/+3OK
      - This is a flash game, not shockwave
      - It can be played on linux since their is a flash player for linux.

      Yay!
  • AimlessAbyss, on 10/11/2007, -0/+3My score: 24,888
  • FrozenIce, on 10/11/2007, -1/+4Addictive? No.

    Hate the fact that the game has a timer? Yes.
  • pclouds, on 10/11/2007, -0/+4Immortal version: http://hpt-obm.berlios.de/blocky.swf
    • WildSnakeAndy, on 10/11/2007, -0/+0What the f..k?! Why you broken my game?
      Make you own and have a fun...
  • waluum, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1Dammit, why didn't you warn me twice?!
  • manmademark, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2wow they give you no time at all once you get past the green level.. would be such a better game if they gave more time or a continue option.
  • abxy, on 10/11/2007, -1/+4made a mistake, dig me down.
  • SpeKopuZ, on 10/11/2007, -0/+3mmmmh... not as good as Desktop Tower Defense
  • MrCrumbles, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1I forget to eat and sleep when I play Desktop Tower Defense. And when I do take those seldom breaks, they're mostly spent throwing stuff out the window at people approaching my apartment building. I also keep a jar near my desk. It's....it's an experience.
  • GhostWithToast, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1nice, but doesn't touch this one

    http://www.shockwave.com/gamelanding/collapse.jsp#
  • Nurjle, on 10/11/2007, -0/+0File under: Intriguing Basic Premise; Poorly Developed
  • TroyBenedict, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1Will somebody one day post a Flash Game that isn't "addictive"?
    • mikeyb863, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1will everybody one day stop pretending to be pissed off because somebody described a game as 'addictive' or 'addicting' just because they think they will be regarded as 'cool' by other digg users?
  • Lepozepo, on 10/11/2007, -0/+0Ahh, bitch, that was fun!!!!
  • licoricewhip, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1Well, there goes 30 minutes the company will never get back...
    • snolan1990, on 10/11/2007, -0/+0how many work hours are lost a year worldwide due to online browser games?

      in my school there are at least 3 pc room lessons going on at any one time of 30 pcs that give about 60 min of playtime in a 75 min lesson 20 of 30 play games and there are 4 lessons a day

      so about 10 days of work time on pcs is lost every day at my small Suffolk school

      good game but i quit after i got stuck which wasn't long. alas my game skill improve on other games

  • master2828, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1Gets wayyy to hard once you get to purple, has anyone gotten further it give you so little time it is next to impossible
    • OrlyonokEaglet, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1It seems I'm not making any progress when playing this game over and over. The reason is you need to get lucky to finish a level quickly and the time bonuses are buggy or maybe it's part of the game. But if you think about it a computer should be able to solve any level instantly, so why shouldn't a player be able to learn to solve them quickly? Well for some reason it's not a game that you can practice to master.
  • razicop, on 04/17/2008, -0/+0Very interesting game..
    thanks for sharing this game!
