Description:
At last, an Eggyland version for your Palm computer.
Now a small (five by five) introduction to all the characters in the game:
- Eggorina: Eggy's wife, she has to be found.
- Leaping Leo: the small, smiling dude. He jumps around the game like a bunny, but when you touch him he falls asleep (reminds you of someone?).
- Willie the Worm (AKA Snakey): Also smiling, doesn't move much, just looks around. Pretty harmless although most of the time he is in your way.
- Medusa: Doesn't move either, but will shoot you if you come in her way. She can shoot in all directions, so be careful!
- Don Medusa. Medusa's husband. Has the same capabilities as his lovely (yuck!) wife, but he moves also. Not a pretty guy to fool with!
- Skull: Rests until you have eaten all the hearts in the game, and then he will chase you around. His chewing jaws are Eggy's worst nightmare....
- Dragon: Just as all others, rests until you've eaten all the hearts, but then will wake up, and puff a fire-ball in your direction if he has the chance. Fortunately he only throws fire in the direction helooks, and in a much slower rate than the medusa's. If your far away you even could outrun his Furious Fire.
- Hearts: They have to be eaten, some of them (the dark round ones) give you 2 units of power, so Eggy can shoot twice. Sometimes you also can get a Hammer (to break a rock) a Bridge (to cross the water, not the river Kwai) or a Saw (to cut a tree). Use your power wisely {said the Programmer}, or you will run out of it and die a miserable dead, or worse commit suicide (yes, life is hard, and in real life you can't restar).
- Water. Ever seen an egg swim? No. So Eggy can't cross the water, except if there's a bridge or Eggy shoots someone and pushes the egg in the water. Eggy hates wet feet.
- Arrows. Only one direction allowed here! Just try, you will see the effect.
- Rocks. Pure solid stone, the only way to destroy one is using a hammer.
- Trees. Pure solid wood and leaves, which can be broken with a saw.
- Vaults. Movable block of iron (Or something else heavy), this can protect you from the attacks of your enemies, but also can become a nuisance, if you push them in a wrong direction.
- Wall. No special function as yet. {Graffiti?} but they do block you
- Eggs. Well, when you shoot an enemy once he will turn into an egg. Great. To get rid of him (or her) just shoot again and WOOSH they're gone. But these eggs can come in handy. You can push the enemy somewhere else, so when he escapes from the egg after a while, he won't be a pain in the ... anymore, or use an egg to cross water. As you can see eggs really are multifunctional!

Some fun puzzles. Some too simple. One is impossible (the programmer admits this). My Palm VII crashed regularly while playing this.

Great game for a freebie, played all 100 levels but had to skip 2 which seemed to have no possible solutions.

Ok, on level two, my palm crashed. Don't get this game if you happen to own a Handspring Visor.

A great game with a LOT of levels. Try this one out if you like puzzle adventure games. I'm finally on level 76 after two months of sporadic play. The only thing that drops this from 'excellent' to 'good' is an occasional crash when switching in and out of the game frequently.
