For those who get stuck on a level
I loved Zuma Deluxe but like one of the other reviewers got frustrated at having to repeat the sub levels repeatedly, until.... I noticed that mysteriously, sometimes when I loaded the game I was half way through the sub-levels, not at the beginning and realized that this was because I had saved the current game and left before I had lost all my lives at the end of the level. Voila! At the end of every sub-game I saved it and exited, then re-loaded the game, to find myself at the sub game where I had left. A bit of a nuisance? Yes, but a whole lot less frustration than repeating the same sub levels over and over and over again.
