The Game Show:Squishy Tank for the Nintendo DS

Squish!

Squishy Tank is a nifty little puzzle game starring many of these bizzarely cute little tanks who need extra protection because they're, well...squishy! Players help the Squishy Tanks by breaking up different colored blocks, with certain amounts of each color needed to finish each level. There are also various special items(such as the tornado pictured below) that aid gameplay in such ways as increasing time, getting rid of a bunch of blocks at a time et al. 

The game modes include Time Attack mode, Survival mode, Quest mode, and Story mode, the latter of which follows the Squishy Tanks through various humorous escapades. Also included are various unlockables, such as 3 different mini-games(one of which being a humorous nod to the legendary Space Invaders) and costumes to dress the Squishy Tanks in(the descriptions of some of which being humorous allusions to Bob the Builder, DragonBall Z, Ghostbusters et al.).



Pros:-A fun, amusing, hard-to-put-down game(You may ask me how I know, LOL :-D).
 
 
          -Easy gameplay with virtually no learning curve.
 
 
          -Very humorous overtones.


Cons:-Honestly, what's there to complain about in a game about cute Squishy Tanks?

Overall, this is an enjoyable, humorous game that's every bit as likeable as its adorable little protagonists. If you like puzzle games and you like funny games, and particularly if you like funny puzzle games, this is the game for you!
