501st played so far Genre: Puzzle/Strategy Platform: PC Year of Release: 2008 Developer: RedLynx Publisher: Nokia Now here’s a catch.

437th played so far Genre: Racing/Puzzle Platform: PC Year of Release: 2008 Developer: Nadeo Publisher: Deep Silver/Enlight So today we’ve got a game that has one of the stranger genre combinations so far – racing/puzzle doesn’t feel like a natural combination.
