In this game, your task is to fix the damage on the plumbing and beams. In order to do that, you have to visit all the construction sites, find the damage and fix it. To repair damaged areas, just walk over it.

Miner 2000er is very similar to Miner 2049er, but it does not play in a mine but in construction areas and in the sewers.

In each of the levels, there are a lot of bonus and extra items for you to collect. Those specials either increase your score, or they refill your life bar. Each level ends when you have repaired the last damage.

Metris II is a clone of Tetris, the classic arcade falling block game. As opposed to other Tetris versions, Metris II has a choice of three game mode possibilities.

The game modes (Classic, New Art, Colors) are similar to Metris:

• Classic mode is very similar to the original Tetris game.
• The second, New Art, offers new types of tokens.
• The third game mode is very similar to the principle of 7 Colors.

New is the usage of DirectX. This allowed some nice effects to be installed. For example: Rain, snow, fog, full screen mode and more.

Jack is back, even if it is not entirely voluntary this time.

We all remember that Jack's girlfriend was kidnapped in the first game. This time it is his son!

Since his girlfriend was kidnapped, Jack has grown up a little. He does not hesitate and sets out to the rescue his son from the evil dragon's claws.

Not only Jack has grown up. The whole game and its graphics are more grown up and less cute as in the first Jump Jack, although it remains a classic "jump and run" game.

Jack even has some guns now. He can select between throwing stars and glowing balls. There is also a plasma weapon available for Jack. If some rocks should block Jack's way, he can use dynamite to clear the way. He can also blast a smart bomb to clear the screen of all enemies.

Barkonid for Atari is the first game in the series. The gameplay is similar to Arkanoid and Breakout.

There are over 100 levels and a final assembly. The game can be played with a joystick or gamepad. The player can pick up bonus capsules that contain various positive or negative extras. These bonuses have to be taken with the ball and not just with the board to be absorbed. Examples include a laser, extra lives, level jumps, glue and much more.

The principle of Klix! 2 is essentially the same as in Klix!. This sequel offers more options to choose the difficulty and characteristics of the game.

In the game coloured tiles fall down from various lanes. The player can pick them up with a basket with only a limited carrying capacity. Then the player can drop them down on the playing field. Creating horizontal, vertical or diagonal lines of the same color removes said lines and scores the player points.

The player can determine the number of different rock colors to play with and how many tiles have to be aligned. The height of the stack in the box is now also adjustable.

Klix is exclusively a single player game.

Klix! is a puzzle game with blocks very similar to Klax. Blocks emerge on conveyor belts with an irregular distance and they come slowly forward until they threaten to fall from the play table. The player moves around a box at the edge, left and right, to catch the blocks. A maximum of five blocks can be stacked in a single go. With the space button these blocks are stored on five fields at the ground.

The blocks do not have unlimited space on the ground, they need to disappear. This done by stacking similar blocks together, in horizontal, vertical or diagonal blocks of at least three in succession, based on the same colour. Blocks come in seven different colours. For combinations of more than three blocks bonus points are provided.

Each level has a specific goal that needs to be reached in order to progress. These include forming ten combinations, or ten diagonal ones in later levels. The game gradually gets harder and the blocks start moving at a faster speed on the conveyor belt.

Bomb Wuzel 2 is the continuation of Bomb Wuzel 3D and instructions to the game are also the same. In this title puzzle skills are even more required.

In this second part Wuzel must eliminate explosive figure without destroying himself on boards with different tile layouts. There are larger levels, more enemies and many extras that make things more difficult. There are new floor tiles characteristics such as infested ones along with extended abilities for more complex strategies.

A further innovation is Wuzeline, which is an alternative character that can be selected for playing. Wuzeline does not have other characteristics than Wuzel, it only looks different.

Bomb Wuzel 3D is a puzzle game with strategic and tactical elements and is reminiscent of Bombuzal.

The gameplay adds new ideas and features to it. The player slips in the role of Wuzel who must eliminate all bombs and mines in a level to advance to the next, more tricky level. Difficulty increases continuously from level to level: Wuzel needs to solve harder bomb combinations. Avoid to wander from the path, and avoid explosions that can kill or injure Wuzel. Different bomb sizes with different characteristics can give you a really hard time - for example: a blowing up radius, timer, remote ignition. Also avoid floor tiles with negative characteristics can stuck or freeze your character.

Metris is a clone of Tetris, the classic arcade falling block game. As opposed to other Tetris versions, Metris has a choice of three game mode possibilities.

The first is called Classic. Classic mode is very similar to the original Tetris game.

The second one, New Art, offers new types of tokens. Like for instance there are glass tokens. If you stack them, only fragments of them will survive. Then there are colored tokens in New Art. Those change their color to the color of the token they first meet. Also, there are now bombs available. You can use them, to blow away a certain area of the playfield.

The third game mode is very similar to the principle of "7 Colors" and you are able to remove 3 or more tokens of the same color in one turn. Additionally, the extra tokens from New Art are included, too.

Barkanoid is a clone of the game Arkanoid. Although basic gameplay is the same, Barkanoid has 100 levels, 35 collectibles and more monsters.

The Windows 3.x version is played in a window without a DirectX full-screen mode.

Plot's 3 is an update to Magnussoft's previous puzzle game Plots! 2.

You will now be in control of a Fix and Foxi character. The game operates in the same way as Plots! 2, with attempting to match tiles to clear a level. If you use your tiles poorly you'll have to start over, this will cost you a life, when you've done this three times the game ends.

The two player mode remains the same as well.

The biggest difference is that the visuals have seen a great deal of change. Your Character is three dimensional and your tiles seem to have a little depth to them as well. Stages and backgrounds also look in Fix and Foxi universe.

Plots! is a remake to mhs Studio's previous puzzle game Plots!.

You will now be in control of a vagrant bipedal jack-out-of-the-box that has a more clownish complexion. The game operates in the same way as Plots!, with attempting to match tiles to clear a level. If you use your tiles poorly you'll have to start over, this will cost you a life, when you've done this three times the game ends.

The two player mode remains the same as well.

The biggest difference is that the visuals have seen a great deal of change. Your spring man is now three dimensional and your tiles seem to have a little depth to them as well. Stages and backgrounds also look a bit more complex.
