Balloonia

Tired of boring puzzle games? Try an exciting new one! Balloonia, a crazy pipe connecting game, requires you to connect pipes between the left and right of the screen. There are 3 different modes: classic, deluxe, and survival.




The basic point of the game is to connect pipes from the left of the screen to the right. You rotate a pipe clockwise by tapping it. The longer the pipe is, the more points you score. Also, when there is more than one starting or ending point, you score more points. When the pipes connect, some crazy thing, like a submarine floats out of the pipe in to the sky.

In the first mode, classic, you are racing the clock for the highest score possible. Deluxe mode offers power-ups and obstacle pipes. The last mode, survival, requires you to watch the timer and make your moves quick.

Classic mode is a normal pipe game. You connect the left of the screen to the right with a pipe. Then, the pipes disappear and more fall to replace the cleared pipes. If you score 6,000 points by the end of the round, you receive a bonus round.
Once the time is up (and bonus round is over, if won), you are taken to the high score list to enter your name. The keyboard is unique to the game yet behaves like the iPhones keyboard.



Deluxe mode includes lots of different power-ups (shown on the left). There are score multipliers, rotation locks, single direction pipes, and many others. It is a very unique mode. 
In survival, you must last as long as possible. You must connect a pipe before the timer is out. 
Balloonia is a very polished puzzle game. It includes many modes and will last you a long time.
I recommend this to anybody who wants to try out a new kind of puzzle game.
