By John Deprice, Fri Dec 9th
Tired of playing same old boring games? There are dozens ofwacky, offbeat or just plain weird games out there and I’ve gotthe scoop on the latest releases. Check ‘em out.
Varmintz (Skunk Studios)
This humorous game places the safety of a wacky crew of raccoonsin your hands. In Varmintz Deluxe, you guide five furrycreatures through an obstacle-packed maze.
Varmintz Deluxe brings back classic hop-and-dodge style gameplayin a fast-paced, character-rich environment. The game includes arange of characters and stars. Varmintz is a scrappy raccoonposse in search of golden eggs. Each of the more than 50 levelscontains a variety of challenging obstacles and in-game enemies,including rabid dogs, lumberjacks, cowboys, joggers, andskateboarders.
Oh yeah, it’s the only game of this kind, where you have noweapons whatsoever. Good luck!

Enigmo (MumboJumbo)
Enigmo is a 3D puzzle game where you move various streams offlowing liquid so that the droplets get to their destination.Liquids (water, oil, and lava) fall from “droppers” and willbounce around the walls of a mechanism. You move and rotate intoposition various types of bumpers, sliders, accelerators, andsponges in order to divert the flow of the falling droplets. Thefaster you complete each level, the more bonus you will receive.The puzzles in Enigmo are mainly about studying the environmentand knowing the devices at your disposal. How does water reactwith the sponge? How does oil react with the bumper? What willhappen with the lava if you rotate the slider just a little bit?The game is made more complex by having to accomplish elementsin a certain order. You not only have to divert 50 drops ofliquid into the receptacle, you also have to first gain accessto the receptacle. There’s a lot about which to think, here, andit’s rare that I ever solved a puzzle correctly on the firsttry. Trial and error is the way to get through this game

I have to say, that I could not agree with you in 100% regarding Number Puzzle, but it’s just my opinion, which could be wrong
