[size=140]You control the grid! The 'grid' is an alien space ship wrecking yard! Your job is to link 5 or more identical space ships and blast them to smithereens with an electrical charge!
Are you up to the task? Unfortunately, no one seems to last long in this job...

Some ships can be destroyed by linking to any other ships, but most can't. When the wrecking yard lanes get bogged down, bring in the bomb squad to blow up ships blocking the way! Bombs are expensive, so use them sparingly!

You will need skill and a bit of luck not to mess up the grid! If you do,...game over! You will be looking for work in no time!

Hopefully, they won't put you in a ship like the last guy!

Good luck![/size]



[size=140]Here is MATCH 5, the LIMITED DEMO VERSION!

What's limited about it, you ask?

Well, when your score exceeds 1000 points, the game ends. We took out the "SPEED" mode, where you race against a timer. You don't get more bombs as you play (like you do in the real game) and we took out the High Score table, But other than that, it plays like the real game.

We tried to make it self documenting. Press Enter to get into the game. Get 5 in a row!

This is a video of the Match 5 Limited Demo version trying to get to 1000 points as quickly as possible. Normally, there is no need to play quickly. But, for the impatient, the game has a "type ahead buffer" that allows the player to enter moves while action is happening on the screen. When the action stops the moves are executed, if they are still possible...[/size]

It appears as "sold out" on the site, so I'm guessing it's not available for order yet.

Classic Game Room has just posted a review of Match 5!  He doesn't normally like puzzle games and he likes Match 5, which speaks to the quality of the game.  :)
