Capture the enemy's Arsenals to win. Deploy your Lines of Communication to keep friendly units in contact. Block enemy lines for strategic advantage. "The surprises of this Kriegspiel seem to be inexhaustible," wrote French Situationist Guy Debord. In Debord's view the game represents the totality of factors at play in wartime maneuvers, what he called "the dialectic of all conflicts." -- Play 2P online against another player -- Play 2P in person on the same device -- Practice against the computer -- Level editor for customizing formations -- Language support for French, German, Spanish, Portuguese, Turkish, and English Kriegspiel is produced and maintained by Alexander R.

Sandy Blocks is an addictive and captivating game that introduces a unique twist to the classic puzzle genre. Set in a dynamic world of shifting sands, players are immersed in a mesmerizing experience where blocks are transformed into cascading grains of sand. The objective is simple: strategically arrange falling blocks to touch from one wall to another. However, with each block's imminent collision with the ground, it disintegrates into a mesmerizing shower of sand particles, altering the landscape and requiring quick thinking and adaptability. As the blocks descend, players must skillfully navigate the ever-changing terrain, leveraging the properties of sand to their advantage. Watch as the sand grains settle and fill the gaps, providing opportunities to form new lines and rack up points. The fluid dynamics of the sand create a visually stunning spectacle, with particles flowing and sliding into place with remarkable realism. But beware, the sands are unforgiving. Misplaced blocks can create uneven surfaces, making it increasingly challenging to find suitable landing spots for subsequent pieces. Strategic planning and timely decision-making become crucial to prevent the accumulation of sand and create open spaces for future moves.
