I have an absolute weakness for physics games, and while Civiballs isn't the strongest physics-based game, what it lacks in the physics department it makes up for a few times over in style and fun.
In Civiballs, you are presented with a few colored balls, and your goal is to get those balls into the same-colored urn on the level. The "civi" part of Civiballs is that there are 3 sets of levels to play, each representing a different civilization. While the civilization doesn't affect gameplay, the artwork for each level is beautifully themed to it's appropriate era.
To play the game, you are given only one tool - a sword with which to cut the chains that are holding the balls. The puzzle part of the game is in figuring out what order, and with what timing to cut each chain. Do it right, and all the right balls end up in the right urns, with no stray balls entering an urn (a no-no). Do it wrong, and you get to start over again.
Civiballs is not terribly deep on gameplay; the entire game can be completed in about 15 minutes. But if you enjoy this type of game, it will be a very enjoyable 15 minutes.

Too bad Download squad doesn't have threaded comments and discourages "intense debates" among its readers.
*sad face* *perplexed by the irony face* *raised eyebrow for the borderline hypocrisy of this post face*

Umm... yes, we do have threaded comments and the ability to rate comments. Intense Debate does offer some features that we don't, as does Disqus. But those aren't two of them.

I'll double check, but there is no "reply" button your comment Mr. Linder.
Once the comments stack up 12 high we have to use the @ symbol in order to have a broken, not threaded conversation.

But there *is* a reply button on your initial comment. We don't support infinite sub-threads. But we do support threaded comments.
