You made it through the ghoulish days of October. Congratulations. Now you've reached the halcyon days of November. A month unmatched by other months in being in front of December.

Today we're wading into a pool-like game called, Snipe. The object of this game is to knock colored balls into their home fields using gray balls. And that's the only similarity the game has to pool. From here on you're going to be in non-pool-like territory. Click on a gray ball, then drag and release to send it rolling across the board. A helpful green line will show you the power and direction of your shot.

Snipe has two levels of perplexity to complicate your game-playing and one to simplify it. In the more difficult levels balls will evaporate if they pass over the wrong colored fields.

We found Snipe to be a comfortable game full of friendly game-play and free of dreary lameness. The solid artwork is finely done and free of extraneous elements. The essential simplicity also extends to the game-play, making this a game with gentle learning curve that anyone can play.
