A. You can find any number of puzzle games for the PC. I enjoy Backgammon, Checkers, Reversi and Sudoku. Sometimes I play card games. Personally, I love The Sims. It is sort of like paperdolls or a dollhouse. You get to create a Sim person, change his clothes, build and furnish him a house, even send him to work. If your character works hard, he can get married, have children, and get job promotions. There is no win or loose, just fun. Ea games put out two version, the original and The Sims 2. Both have expansion packs and a ton of websites devoted to extra bits to add to the game.

A. In Mario 3 on NES if you press down for 5 seconds on a white platform you go through the ground and you're able to walk in the background all the way through the level. If you do that on level 1 you can go behind the black background at the end of the level and get a warp whistle.

A. There are several great puzzle games on the DS. One that springs to mind would be Tetris DS, of course. Tetris is a classic, and the DS version brings even more variety to the table. The touch mode is a lot of fun, and very addicting. Another game you might want to check out is Meteos. This game is kind of like Bejeweled, but at a more intense and addicting pace. This game had be going for a LONG time. There's also, of course, Sudoku games, which are increasingly popular. But for a game similar to Touchmaster? There's a game (It's kind of rare, if you find it, buy it!) called Polarium. It's a fantastic game, but again, it's rare. As for games like Professor Layton, there's two game series' that spring to mind, and that's Phoenix Wright… [cont.]
