Theme Hotel If you build it, they will stay the night. But you may want to turn off the music. Fun, addicting little "Sim Hotel" game, reminiscent of
SimTower.

Somewhere between the ultimate physics simulator and a freeform 2-D version of Minecraft lies
The Powder Toy, a free download for
Windows,
Mac, and
Linux. With over
150 elements available to build from (and a full implementation of the game of life), users have built "working"
electricity-generating reactors,
rockets, and
destructible city models. The Powder Toy is a variant on the venerable
Falling Sand Game, the most impressive version of which is the
Powder Game, now up to version 8, and playable online as a Java applet.

Friday Flash Fun:
Nuclearoids. A little like Boomshine, a lot like dominoes. But with explosions. And bouncy balls. And colors. Lots of colors! Not too brain engaging, with particle attraction and even black holes.

Dr. Mitch McGraw, famous scientist, is shrunk in a freak accident to the size of a flea and ends up in the hair of his assistant, Ted Preston. Some Friday fun for those of you stuck in the office.

Friday Fun (posted early).
"Do It Yourself" virtual building blocks (similar to the virtual
Legos a while back). Addiction Rating: Mid-Range (no worries--it won't eat your life like
Bookworm did). Very simple blocks can make surprisingly beautiful, even complex creations (awfully tough to approximate a
Gothic groin vault with the available shapes, but trying's half the fun).
