It's been nominated for awards by both Pocket PC Magazine and Handango, so it piqued my interest.<br /><br /><img src="http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/images/adrian/complexdiscount.gif" /><br /><br />I *think* I can understand what the developer is trying to convey in its description:<br /><br />"Complex is a cool and cute little puzzlegame for the Pocket PC that will keep you going for a while! Moving your way through 60 stylish levels and uber gameplay, you'll discover that long stories and option screens waste your time when all you want to do is have fun."<br /><br />Hey, I'm all for wasting time, especially when my Pocket PC is involved. I've installed the demo, and it's fun, a bit llike block-pushing maze games like Toki-Tori.<br /><br />I'm also all for saving money, and Pocketeer is going to offer Complex at a 25% discount through October 2004! If you buy Complex from the <a href="http://www.handango.com/brainstore/PlatformProductDetail.jsp?siteId=311&productId=119624">Handango site</a> using code <b>129B1F4</b>, you'll get it for only $4.50! You can get a free demo from Handango, too, but at that price you may just want to grab the full version right away!

Man, even level 2 of the demo is already tough

I'm trying to buy it, but there are two problems...

First, the link in the top post doesn't work; there's an extra command at the end.

Second, something's wrong on Handango's end because I put the game in the cart, apply the coupon, go to checkout and get a "page cannot be displayed" error.

I will try again later... this game sounds like fun. It reminds me of a game I played eons ago on my PC called "Robo" or something to that effect, where you had to get through mazes and collect objects while dodging blasts. If you got hit, a voice would say "Poor Robo!" (Anyone recognize the game? I'd love to find it again!)

Well, sort of... now it opens as a frame inside the PPC page.

I believe it's supposed to.

I believe it's supposed to.

Okay; I thought they used to go straight to the Handango page. I guess this is an "internal store" now?

That'll teach me to keep on top of the goings on here at PPCT...

Anyway, I bought the game... way too much fun as a time waster. However, there doesn't seem to be a way to save your place so you can pick up where you left off?

I download the trial and after executing the game, it says that it is not a valid pocketpc game.

Did you install the game like the instructions say? All you have to do is connect your Pocket PC to your PC and run the complex_whoopie_demo_setup.exe file.

It should unlock the levels as you complete them.

[blang]

Yes. I ran the setup, put it in my sd card and it says it is not a valid pocketpc program. How is it different than installing any other game.?
