Zaz (video Game)
Zaz (a backronym for "Zaz ain't Z***") is a free software (GPLv3) puzzle video game which is similar to '' Zuma''. Gameplay The goal is to remove all incoming marbles by rearranging their order and making triplets or quartets of the same color. The game features 23 levels and is reportedly harder than the original Zuma. In each of the levels there are some special items, for example marked balls that explode more than just the normal three balls. Unlike Zuma, where the player shoots new balls from a center point, in Zaz the player moves a grabber on a separate track on the playfield to grab a ball that can then be shot back at a new location. Instead of inserting randomly assigned new balls, the player moves existing balls. Reception The game is available in Linux distributions, such as Ubuntu, Fedora and Debian repositories as the game's content complies with the DFSG. This was achieved after replacing the CC BY-NC-SA licensed NIN soundtracks in versions after 0.2.6. Betw ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
