ZombieDrop
so much fun it's almost scary!

It's a brand new, twisted kind of puzzle! Unlike Tetris and other simple "falling parts" games, in this one, you have to move the game board around to catch the parts! You must slide the morgue drawers to catch the zombie parts in the right order (head-on-body-on-legs) in order to create complete zombies. Presented by Shockwave.com (part of the Atom Entertainment network), this Halloween special challenges you to 57 levels of falling-body-parts fun!

Whack-a-Robe
the game of supreme justice

Okay, you may have noticed that Metaversal Studios does a lot of educational work. And you may have noticed that maaaaybe our games have a bit of a satirical edge. This free no-membership-required game puts both of our strengths to work. Learn about the current (well, as of July 1, 2005, the day one of them decided to retire -- thanks for making our game dated so fast, Sandy Day!) Supreme Court Justices while whacking them on the head. Can you make it all the way to Chief Justice?

NYMBLE: Not Your Momma's Boxes 'N' Lines Entertainment (or Crosses and Corners)

nymble*
Not your Momma's boxes 'n' lines entertainment

nymble* is a game that can be played any time you have pencil and paper and a friend handy. Or, you can play our handy two-player online version right here!

If your mama wasn't the type to play Boxes-and-Lines, you can call nymble* "Crosses and Corners." It's quick and easy, combining a little bit of John Conway's Game of Life with a little bit of Go (Fun Fact: Conway's "game" was first played on a Go board, so we're bringing things full circle here!) -- and when the board is filled in completely, it makes some nice artwork, too!

Infernal Machines: The Game Of Insane Inspectors And Defective Devices

Infernal Machines
The card game of insane inspectors and defective devices

So you've got a bunch of widgets. Maybe you can make a gadget with them. Maybe it will pass quality control and you'll get to go home early.

Better yet, since you're an inspector, too, maybe you can fail someone else's gadget, then steal its widgets to make your gadget even better! Be careful, though -- if anyone exposes your thieving activities, you'll lose your profits, and possibly your job, too!

A card game for 2 or more players. Deck contains 106 full-color playing cards illustrated by Gabe Connolly.

Pipeline: The Game Of Oily International Trade

Pipeline
The board game of oily international trade

The oil just keeps gushing through the pipelines, so there's gotta be enough to go around, right? Not if the rich want to keep getting richer, there isn't.

You play a conglomerate with majority interests in the world's richest oil fields: exotic places like Prozakistan, Plutocracia, and Morlocko. The oil has to keep flowing, or the Trade Commission will close you down. But it doesn't have to be fair trade: hold on to the refined product while sticking your neighbors with crude and waste, and you'll come out on top. Just don't bankrupt your downstream neighbors... and watch out for the saboteur!

A very portable board game for 2-5 players, Pipeline will initially be distributed as a "do it yourself" downloadable game kit. With our DIYGames, all you pay for are the cleverly written rules and Henry Foster's hilarious artwork; the rest you can scrounge from those other games gathering dust on the shelves!
