Tangle Bee
Writer: Kaonashi

Tangle Bee screenshotTangle Bee is one of the most unique casual games I've seen in a while since the Diner Dash series. The objective is to help untangle a group of bees caught in a spider's web before the spider gets to their honey pot. To do so, move the bees around so that the lines don't cross. Earn extra points for combination moves. At higher levels, the bees become more tangled, and not surprisingly the spider moves a little faster towards the honey. Another spider also occasionally swoops down to trap one of the bees so it's immobile. Fortunately, help arrives in the form of the Queen Bee, who is sometimes tangled among her subjects. When freed, the Queen releases a special token that has special abilities, such as stopping the spider momentarily.

Although it's definitely kid friendly, Tangle Bee offers five modes of play that appeal to everyone. Tangle Bee Classic is the regular, single player version, while Tangle Trouble and Tangle Puzzle are more challenging. Children can enjoy a simplified version of the game with Tangle Bee Kids, while those who want to take it easy can play Timeless Tangle Bee.

I thought that the game was enjoyable, with nice graphics and music. I liked the cute little touches, such as bees falling asleep when they haven't been moved in a while. What I liked best about Tangle Bee though, is that it isn't another clone of an existing game. It's something fresh and new.

Feyruna: Fairy Forest is a game that is suitable for any age, both my five-year-old daughter and I enjoyed playing it. The game reminds me a little of Galaxians that used to run on those big chunky arcade machines that took so much of my cash in my younger days.

Where you are presented with a stationery screen and a lot of "aliens" swooping down at you from above. You then move your ship around the screen shooting the aliens and clearing them off each new level.
