Default Four Shields - Get your Shields Up!

http://www.cactusfactory.com/fs.html#fs



"Four Shields is an exciting puzzle game with a whole new gameplay that requires strategic thinking, especially if you want to have a higher score. You have to gather four shield squads by grouping together by four, the same shields or suitable parts of split shields (depends on difficulty level). The game seems easy to play, but your challenge is to figure out how to do it in the shortest number of moves! The gold highscore plate is waiting for challengers! Good luck!"

Features include:
  • �Whole new gameplay
    �High quality graphics
    �Sound effects
    �Easy-to-use interface and built-in instructions
    �4 difficulty levels
    �Highscore result for each difficulty level
    �Replay a last game and try for a higher score
    �Can be installed on a storage card
    �Task switching to other programs possible

Five day free trial available! Or you can order from Handango or PocketGear now for $7.95! [affiliate]

The game runs on any Pocket PC 2000/2002/2003 device. It requires .NET Compact Framework and 310 Kb of storage memory.

Puzzles and brain teasers make me want to smash my Pocket PC! :wink: If any of you "puzzle game" addicts have tried this, be sure to take a minute and let us know what you think about it!

I downloaded Four Shields and read the instructions which are in broken english and don't actually explain how to make a move. After several minutes of fruitless clicking I gave up and uninstalled it.

I downloaded the trail version and found the some problem. Instructions that do not explain how to move. After awhile I figured out that you must click on a shield or shield piece then click where you want the piece to move. The move must go to a to an empty spot. Best score for me without the stick (Makes the normal level more difficult) is 94.

Thanks... I took a second look and finally got it. Takes a number of games to get the hang of. Best score without stick 59 so far, but I think it could be much lower. Idea is clever and graphics and sound are nice but seems like it could become a little boring.
