Blackout is my own PalmOS version of what Games magazine calls "one of the great puzzle ideas of recent years". It sounds easy--all you have to do is turn off the buttons that are "lit up". Problem is, pressing one button changes the adjacent buttons.
Blackout features 35 pre-designed levels of increasing difficulty, along with thousands of computer-generated levels, and custom levels you can make yourself. Added touches include a hint command (for both the preset and random levels), a graphical "level browser", best score memory, and switchable sound effects. Plus, it can be played using your fingers (or someone else's, I suppose).
Registered users who complete all 35 levels are eligible for the world-renowned Blackout Hall of Fame!
