  • Aargon - Colored lasers bend, split, refract, and recombine in an eye-pleasingly sparse puzzle game.
    • "...it's a perfect game for those of us who have always been more into the "thinking" side of the gaming world. I'm hooked on Aargon Deluxe; I can't stop playing it." -- Lockergnome
    • "Designing a Rube Goldberg machine was a compelling concept for a game when Dynamix introduced The Incredible Machine in 1993. These were mostly physical puzzles. Other recent games like Fallout Tactics are puzzle-oriented but rely mostly on line of sight and probability. Or take Hitman which relies on violence and stealth to solve its puzzles. Aargon is a nice, peaceful, mathematically elegant game. It has the potential to root you to your computer for hours at a time, and is enjoyable to play by oneself or with others."—X-Treme Gaming Radio

Famous quotes containing the words notable and/or games:

    “Every notable advance in technique or organization has to be paid for, and in most cases the debit is more or less equivalent to the credit. Except of course when it’s more than equivalent, as it has been with universal education, for example, or wireless, or these damned aeroplanes. In which case, of course, your progress is a step backwards and downwards.”
    —Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)

    “The rules of drinking games are taken more serious than the rules of war.”
    —Chinese proverb.
