Slither Link - Today's Time Waster
Slither Link is a Java game that's sort of a cross between Minesweeper, Sudoku, and the classic maze. The object is to connect the dots to create a single, continuous loop thta doesn't have any crosses or branches. In order to figure out which dots to connect, you look at the numbers, which tell how many lines surround them. Unlike Sudoku, it occasionally requires some trial and error, and unlike Minesweeper it's pretty easy to make a mistake. Use the "Try" button to test out solutions you're not sure of and "Check" to see if your solution is correct.
