Nail 'N Scale

"If you are in extreme boredom in the car, try this."

This is a really, really, really long game. However, this game can be a really good challenge... That is, for Puzzle freaks. Let's look at this game.

This game is, apparently, about two brothers who are trying to rid the world of evil monsters!!! These guys use nails to hook into blocks, and jump on them to get to a higher place, or to break the brick. The basic brick you can destroy after stomping on it twice. However, some blocks are already half broken, and some blocks can't be destroyed. There are even special bricks that can only be broken with explosive nails, as well as blocks that you can't hook into to get yourself higher in the level. The point of the game is to reach the door at the end of the stage, and on every 10th level, you must desroy a boss.

This game has a really good learning curve. The beginning of the game is really easy, while as you get to level 30, it get's very difficult. The farthest I have ever gone is about level 55, which is EXTREMELY hard.

This game will induce those hard hard hard core puzzle fans, those that would be willing to sacrafice two hours of their life in order to beat this game. However, those that won't will tire of this game after the 29 level, and even the hard core puzzle fans will only go to about level 47. This is a game where beating it is impossible. IT is a lot like tetris in this way

This game would recieve about a 3 for non fans, and 1 more until you reach about 10 for the hardest of hard core fans. That is why the average is 5, a rather low score, but high for an unappreciated game.
