Default Queue Translated For the Pocket PC

http://www.handango.com/PlatformProductDetail.jsp?siteId=311&platformId=2& productType=2&catalog=0&sectionId=0&productId= 50843

Island Labs has just released a Pocket PC version of the popular Web-based strategy game, Queue.



"Queue is a challenging and at times thoroughly maddening single-player puzzle game. From a simple concept comes a series of 100 deviously sophisticated puzzles. Push various shapes around the board to arrange them in the correct order. Each level is more difficult than the last, with only one elusive solution. Special tools, power-ups and obstacles are introduced as you progress through the game. You'll encounter bulldozers, extra lives, time bonuses, arrows, bridges and holes. Completing all 100 levels will require every ounce of creativity you've got."

This is just the kind of Pocket PC game I love! I am absolutely NO good at arcade games that require fast fingers and actual eye-hand coordination. This kind of "think-carefully-about-your-next-move" game can keep me entertained for hours. There's a free demo available, so go ahead and give the game a try for yourself.

UPDATE: Kevin, the game's developer, has offered to give away a free license to five lucky Thoughts readers. So, make sure you're registered with this site, and we'll hold a drawing for the freebies in a couple of days.

MORE UPDATES: How about THIS...? Since Island Labs uses an island theme, we'll give the free licenses to the first five people who can post the full name of the Professor character on the Gilligan's Island TV show. I don't mean the actor's name, but the Professor's full name.

I'm hoping you follow the tradition that degrees are part of the *full* name.
