It box 'new' games

Our local itbox test site has some shockers on it which are so instantly forgetable that I am struggling to remember them- something where you have to aim balls at frogs on lilly pads, some skill/q+A hybrid called ceasars palace which was truly shit, a revamped word cube(which I have never got on with) and something else.

Anyone else seen these and can confirm they are indeed shite?

Seen the Caesar's Palace but on Gamesnets.

Good luck in the endgame.

The endgame won't be an issue- I can guarantee it.

I'm surprised you didn't like Word Cube. I thought it was quite good fun when I played it in your pub (and in a few others). A mixture of Boggle & Soup in that you need to be able to hack, but also to clear the grid, to get a half decent score.

Someone else has been playing it recently I see...

The endgame is basically a fruit machine feature masquerading as skill - to move up a level you are asked to follow four quickly-spinning awards, only one of which isn't 'Game Over'. The only way to approach the game is to try to maximise the number of special symbols (keys?) you can collect in the first game then take the prize you are then offered at the corresponding level in the endgame.
