This week has been busy. Tomorrow I get a bit of time off.
But today ended with an accomplishment, at least: I found the damned game my sister and I have been searching for for YEARS.
We couldn't quite remember the name, but I knew that if I ever saw it again I would know that it was the one (the color scheme was unique in that there wasn't much of it.) Tonight I was just trying to narrow down the amount of games with the name I thought the game carried.
So I went and looked up pictures under the name, thinking it might pop up...
And there it was. Right in front of me. Chain Reaction. If a picture's worth a thousand words, the picture I saw of this game was worth all the hours I put in trying to find anything relating to it. I did Google searches for months looking for this thing. I'm still in shock.
The reason why we had so darn much difficulty finding it was because it apparently was either so old that it's gone freeware or the guy who created it was messing around and just gave it away. It was never sold to a company, which is why when I searched the Popcap website I came up empty.
It's freeware, so here's a link to it for anyone who wants to give it a try. it's not an easy game, which is why my sister loved it so much (and kicked my ass at it, if truth be told.)

Before I got off the phone with my mother the kid had this thing downloaded and was already screaming through level 2. I have yet to conquer level 1. Again.
I'll play more tomorrow. I think I'm gonna crash.
Ta,
Bec
