Traditional Game from Xicat Interactive, by Zed Two
Dreamcast version of the popular puzzle game. The game involves managing land and water on a square 3D landscape viewed from an isometric perspective. Variously shaped blocks of land (uppers) and amounts of water drop down and you must position them onto the landscape to contain the water, preventing it from flowing off the edge of the landscape. There are also blocks that remove land (downers), fireballs that evaporate water and bombs that destroy land. Too much land causes an earthquake and a water meter monitors the amount of water that has been lost, when it is full the game is over. | The game employs a points system that offers hefty bonuses for creating multiple lakes, deep lakes and for containing large amounts of water for prolonged periods of time. Game options include a set of tutorials, challenges, open-ended single player games and a two-player mode. The game's graphics are good, particularly the high-quality water effects.
