It's a cats world

I downloaded one of my favourite arcade games today and managed to get to Level 16 with 110,780 points! Cubis Gold is available from MSN Games as well as Yahoo. Cubis is a 3-D puzzle game: you move and left-click your mouse to remove a number of colourful cubes (with a time limit) to advance to the next level. This is done by matching three same colored cubes (that can span up to three levels). As the game progresses and you move up the levels, you are introduced to wedge cubes, osmosis cubes, and laser cubes.

A friend recommended this game to me about 3 years ago, and I fell in love with it: it's extremely easy to learn, and the high scoring possibilities are good for the ego! After my free downloaded version expired (when I first learned of Cubis, years ago), I played the online version, but it is not as flashy and aesthetically pleasing (the music and sound effects are pretty cool too... they really suite the game's graphics). I'm unlikely to become an addicted player of Cubis: I'd hate to develop a repetitive strain injury in my wrist! (But I'll revisit it from time to time since it is such good fun, and a great way to distract oneself from more serious pursuits).
