Chocolate Castle is a small cute game. When I saw the screenshots I thought that it is just yet another retro style game, but I was wrong. Since it’s not even 1MB download I downloaded it and gave it a chance. So let me just say it’s very fun.

Download Chocolate Castle now! It’s available for Windows and Mac OSX.

The object of Chocolate Castle is to eat all of the chocolate in each room. There are four types of chocolate and four types of animals to eat them with. To eat some chocolate, click and drag an animal into it and both of them will disappear.

You can also click and drag chocolate to move it into an empty space. If you put two pieces of the same colour next to each other, they will stick together. You can eat more chocolate with one animal by doing this, but be careful because once they are connected, they can not be separated!

If you make a mistake, you can rewind to any previous move my pressing the UNDO button. Replay moves by clicking REDO, or by pressing Enter.

Here are some other opinions from the web:

• Game of the month [May Edition] – Game Tunnel
• “Deceptively cute. This game doesn’t look like much at first glance, but those fluffy animals and deliciously shiny chocolate morsels conceal a mighty cerebral puzzle experience.”
  – John Bardinelli, Game Tunnel

• “All the elements are in and perfect. There are a small set of different puzzle elements, but each one greatly expands the possibilities, all of which are explored over the course of 120 levels.”
  – Mike Hommel

• “It’s such a delightfully simple concept that can lead to some extremely fiendish puzzle play and if you’re a puzzle game fan I suspect this should be in your “must-have” collection. Apart from the huge number of puzzles it appears to come with there is also a level editor which should extend its play life too.”
  – Caspian Prince, Game Tunnel

• “Seriously, don’t let the small install size trick you into thinking this game isn’t big on gameplay, because it is.”
  – William Usher, Game Tunnel

The name suggest it all. Jig Art Quest is a jig saw puzzle game. And to be honest with you I am not a huge fun of jig saw games… with exception to this one.

Why? The answer is not so simple.

Jig Art Quest is build around art. Art plays major role in this game and you can see that from the very beginning. Your quest is divided into 6 different themes such as Forest, Water, Snow, Art, Science. Each theme contains 3 unique images. That gives you a total of 18 images (+2 final images). You can play on 3 difficulty settings: easy, normal and hard. You can also enable piece rotation so it makes each setting even tougher. I prefer to play at normal difficulty without piece rotation. I can’t imagine anyone solving the puzzles on highest diffulty setting (700+ pieces).

To help you start you can uncover 8 pieces and one row. This is very nice option. It helps if you don’t place all pieces on the board and try to place them one by one (it’s easier to match).

As I mentioned, I found Jig Art Quest very entertaining. Very nice art and well set difficulty is what I like.

I’ve got only two complains. First of all – quest. There’s no quest, but name suggests that there is one. Then there are only 20 pictures (though each one is of great quality)… if that’s not enough for you, feel free to make your own custom puzzles.
