Yup, that's right folks, they went and made a sequel to Peggle. It's just as mind boggling addicting and obscenely fun as the original. If you happen to be one of those poor unfortunate souls that has not had the pleasure to play Peggle, first, smack yourself. Second, go buy/download/steal it as soon as you can.
The game play follows a fairly simple formula: a ball-launcher at the top of the screen, a playing field below it filled with a color-coded constellation of Pachinko-style pegs (along with occasional barriers and/or moving targets), an ammo-rack of balls off to the side, and a ball-catching bucket continually moving back and forth across the bottom of the screen. Your job is to pick a launch angle, send a ball bouncing from peg to peg (eliminating each said peg — thus continually making the playfield that much more sparse and hence difficult), and score as many points as possible. Hit orange pegs to clear the stage, purple ones for a point boost, and green ones to activate your chosen hero/character’s special power. Child’s play, right? Yer ***.
Yeah, I stole that last paragraph from Game Revolution because it's a fairly concise description of the game and I'm too lazy to come up with one of my own when someone else was kind enough to already write it.
Anyway, I've been playing for a few days now and it's probably one of the most fun PC games that I've ever played. So, seriously go find yourself a copy and go to it.
