Walls of Jericho
SCORE: 99
The Walls of Jericho on the Personal Computer is quite simply the
best puzzle game I have ever played. Full Armor Studios released this
gem back in 2003 and has over 1.5 million downloads on some sites.
Followers walk in front of the wall, and once they are all gone your
game is over. So how do you keep your followers in front of the wall?
The more blocks you take care of, sandwiches, and special power blocks
are some of the easiest ways. The main theme of the gameplay is to move
the blocks around to create vertical (or horizontal) rows of three or
more of the same color. Beating a level consists of getting three arks
in a row (vertical or horizontal).
The graphics in this game are gorgeous. The special effects of the power
blocks are awesome eye candy. The followers who walk in front of the
wall look exactly as I imagine the ancient Israelites when they walked
around the Wall of Jericho bringing it crashing down. The sounds are
nicely done, and the music is themed nicely. The only complaint about
the sounds is they are set on the lower level, that however is a minor
issue.
Replay? You have got to be kidding me. First off this is a puzzle game.
Secondly, it is one of the best puzzle games of all time. Replay is what
this game is about. Beating the high scores is the first reason to
replay, and then after that is seeing all the different power blocks.
Gameplay is perfect block puzzler with the twist of the followers. There
are a lot of different power blocks in this game that have different,
and varying effects. These range from an angel dropping sandwiches to
make your
followers stay longer to a horn that shakes off a decent amount of
blocks from the wall.
This game is what family friendly gaming is all about. There is nothing
to embarrass or offend you in this game. It has a wonderful theme from
the Walls of Jericho. This game is truly for gamers of all ages.
Clicking then dragging blocks, and working on matching blocks.
