Alhademic Lines is a charming mind game where you arrange colored balls on a board to form lines of balls having identical colors. Lines of five or more balls vanish from the board, increasing your score. (Two new options are introduced with this version, where instead of lines, you may assemble blocks, or rectangle shapes. Different rules apply.) The game ends when the board is filled with balls and no qualifying line (or pattern) exists. Not only may you choose the objects you like from the six offered (3D balls, or five alternates), but you may also load various backgrounds (choose from five included, or use your own favorite or specially designed image) and play your favorite MIDI music file during the game (ten original melodies are included).
Our Review: Alhademic Lines is an interesting game in which you have to make patterns with little balls. The bigger the pattern the more points you get. For example, each round you get to reposition a ball anywhere within this grid, and when you connect 5 balls of the same colour in a line, the balls disappear and you get another turn. This game is quickly learned, and the strategy behind it quickly understood. An interesting challenge, and a good change from the plethora of Solitaire and Tetris games out there.
