So, I’ve been looking for a new game to buy with my Big Fish game credit and having a hard time deciding which one to get. I wanted to get something like Peggle since we have really enjoyed playing it. A lot of the brick busting games look interesting but just aren’t doing it for me.

Sproink looked promising maybe because of the cute aliens or the gems. I like sparkly things. Either way, I tried the demo and really like it. So, now I’ve decided what to use my Big Fish game credit to purchase.

Sproink is an alien race that went deep underground to save their kind when a meteor struck their planet. Now their resources are depleted and they must return to the surface. In Sproink, you help them by clearing gems on each level. Each level completed frees more of the cute little aliens. You must catch falling gems, then shoot the gems to create three in a row. That clears the gems and gets you that much closer to completing the level. Dropped gems slowly damage your bridge. Drop too many gems and there will be a cave in.

Even if it is a puzzle “get three in a row” game, the premise is fun and there is the twist of catching falling gems. Also, to shoot gems higher you have to hold down the mouse button. It will be a good choice for this month.
