– Bugs add to gameplay challenge!This is not an easy game. The goal is to match blocks to free the cute little boogying Ouba's but to do so you must also avoid causing the blocks to freeze or the game itself to crash entirely. Addicting and annoying. Would be a super game if it didn't crash and was less laggy. by Nathalie Baldwin, USA - Apr 22nd 2007

– Makes you really see the news for the first timePeaceMaker is a revelation. By letting you play both sides in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict it makes you really confront the complex issues involved. After playing it, the news from the region will be viewed with a new light of understanding. Stepping into the shoes of the Palestinian President or the Israeli Prime Minister and negotiating the shifting winds of public favour and the rough seas of violence of both sides makes one appreciate the delicate balancing act of building peace both within and without your people. Making the policy decisions, negotiating with radical and conservative parties, choosing where to spend money and dreading the next outburst of violence makes the issues stick in your mind long after finishing the game. More understanding comes with doing than reading magazines or watching TV. Playing the game is a fast and efficient way of learning about the seemingly neverending Middle-East conflict. In just a few hours the player will make many illuminating connections between the often conflicting actions and speeches of the participating groups - and the consequences of the actions. When the same findings are shown daily in the international news it makes you really appreciate the work that has gone into PeaceMaker. The game is fun and engaging to play and encourages deep thinking about the conflict. A strategy game has seldom felt so alive and current. PeaceMaker proves that the real world provides subjects many times more interesting than the usual fantasy fare offered in the name of entertainment. Above all, PeaceMaker provides hope. Hope of the conflict being solvable, hope of mutual understanding and respect being possible. Hope of finally setting aside the myriad legitimate grievances of both sides and working together to achieve peace. Hope of people from both sides to mostly view each other as people first and members of a different group second. A game couldn't aspire to higher ends. It does not even matter if you agree with the assumptions the game makes or the accuracy of the many facts presented. You will think, and you will learn. And you will have fun. by Jarmo Petäjäaho, Finland - Apr 14th 2007

– RollerCoaster Tycoon 3 SoakedThe game adds a large range of water items including pools, slides and many more. This makes the original rollercoaster game much more enjoyable and fun. You can also make laser and water shows which can be shown in your park at night. Recommend to anyone who owns RollerCoaster Tycoon 3. by Mr Ross Williams, Australia - Apr 12th 2007

– A great game offering unique playing experienceI am an Israeli, a serious gamer, and an expert on the subject. - A great, highly addictive game I like this game for many reasons. At first I was skeptical and only downloaded the demo version, but quickly upgraded. Instead of overloading the player with irrelevant (and boring...) historical facts, the game conveys the situation in the middle east as is, currently, every day. By playing both sides, the Israeli and the Palestinian, you get a new perspective on things. Instead of going 'hey, why can't they resolve it', in this game I felt 'hey, what should *I* do next to resolve it?' - a unique playing experience, that carries on to every news report I currently see. And the game is much fun, very well balanced. Highly recommended! by badolina, USA - Apr 12th 2007

– Over simplified - fails to deal with core issues; mis-states goalsThe game is a nice concept poorly executed. It is unrealistic because it papers over the core reasons for continuing conflict. by Andrew Hamilton, Australia - Apr 9th 2007

– Passable Mac GameEaW leaves a lot to be desired. The graphics are mediocre by today's standards even for a game of this age. If Aspyr is going to constrain us to Intel-only chipsets then we'd better be seeing some MIND BLOWING graphical capabilities and unit caps. If you're looking for good space combat, go for Homeworld 2. If you want good ground combat (Star Wars style) get Galactic Battlegrounds. Old games, but both deliver on fronts that Empire at War fails. I absolutely loathe some of the gameplay elements here, especially the artificial game barriers that the game imposes. For example, why can't I land my entire army during a ground invasion? No, in order to land my full force I need to capture reinforcement points scattered across the map. WHY? It makes absolutely no sense. I should never be scratching my head and chaffing at gameplay barriers. If you can't make a game without these idiotic elements, then don't make the game at all. by Jarrod Nettles, USA - Apr 9th 2007

– Fun if you like pet fishThis is one of those ant farm like experiences where you sort of nudge your lifeforms into what you want done and otherwise just generally sit back and watch. This is kind of a double-edged blade that works for and against this game. I can only recommend it if you're willing to give it an hour at the beginning of the game and then check it ever hour or so like a Tamagotchi. Basically, try the demo and imagine that your sense of accomplishment will slow down dramatically after a few hours when you've sort of finished the obvious stuff and then the game will become almost like a stamina test rather than a constant stream of things to do and overcome. by Christopher Rydberg, Taiwan - Apr 9th 2007

– Hard-earned funThis is the king of micromanagement games and it can be incredibly daunting trying to get into it, but when you do you are rewarded with a game so deep and rich you may never stop playing. If not for its awkward interface I'd put it up there with classics like Civilization. A.D.D. kids need not buy. by Christopher Rydberg, Taiwan - Apr 9th 2007

– The perfect game for the backseat politicianWhile this game is not attractive and gets repetitive I still enjoy cranking the difficulty way up and seeing if I can't rebuild my own perfect America without getting assassinated or voted out of office. I'd wager that unless you like management gaming or are really politically minded you probably won't enjoy this game much, but if either of those could describe you this game might well be worth your time. by Christopher Rydberg, Taiwan - Apr 9th 2007

– A solid businees management gameI bought this as a fan of the classic console game Aerobiz and was not disappointed. While I will say that the game can be a little hard to make sense of at first, it becomes fun and interesting after a few plays and I'm still enjoying the occasional afternoon with it. by Christopher Rydberg, Taiwan - Apr 9th 2007

– Big disappointmentWith all the powerful graphics available today this is a poor excuse for a game. It leaves the player as a watcher instead of in the action. It is so slow, I could read a book and play at the same time by CARL, USA - Apr 5th 2007
