Description

zpBlocks is a single player tile matching game in which the player has to match three or more blocks of the same colour in order to remove them and score points.

One unusual feature is that the blocks move across the screen from left to right rather than the more usual falling from the top. The player uses the arrow keys to move a cursor that's two one cell wide and two cells high, it cannot be rotated. The player positions this over the coloured blocks as they move across the screen and, by pressing the space bar, they can swap the coloured blocks around hence making chains and scoring points.

The game has sound, a high score table and two modes of play, endless and puzzle.
