I have to confess that soap operas are not exactly my cup of tea. However I admit that it is quite fascinating to imagine what must be going on behind the scenes. And this is exactly the kind of experience Soap Opera Dash, the newest release by Playfirst, tries to provide. While the game’s theme is charming and a nice variation for the dash franchise, there are some shortcomings that prevent it from being a top-notch experience.

Calling someone "heavy" would usually be quite an insult, but Heavy Hogur doesn't seem to mind too much - especially considering his knack for finding treasure galore. Unfortunately his weight does cause rather a problem, as levels crumble beneath him as he moves.

In the dark and distant days before social networks (i.e., my childhood), Atari's Asteroids famously made local convenience store legends out of gaping teenagers who stood glued to the console's screen for hours on end. As such, it's only appropriate that such a gaming hallmark should make a triumphant entry into the nascent world of social gaming. Here is a game that frustrates while it pleases, challenges while it enchants, and revels in its retro roots while blasting a course for Facebook's acceptance as a hardcore gaming platform. To be sure, Asteroids Online isn't for everyone, but this incarnation proves that Atari's masterpiece has lost none of its force in the 31 years since its release.

Monster Galaxy is something unusual and ambitious for Facebook, an attempt to create a clone of Nintendo’s extraordinarily deep Pokemon RPGs that’s friendly to social gameplay. While there are very few true social mechanics in Monster Galaxy, the game is largely successful at bringing the appeal of monster training and collecting games into something you can play for free on Facebook. The game features 120 distinct monsters to battle and capture, without any of the “spend money if you want this rare monster!” shenanigans you might expect.

If Rovio is indeed planning to release their iPhone smash hit Angry Birds onto the PC/Mac like the rumor mill has been whispering, they'd better hurry up because the desktop clones are already coming out of the woodwork. Case in point: Pengu Wars, aka Angry Penguins.
