Although the first Mercury on PSP didn't set the world on fire, it was a unique twist on the traditional "rolling puzzle" game with its own unusual charm. I grew to admire the physics of sloshing liquid metal through clever setups, and the abstract aesthetics of its shimmering sheen appealed to the art wonk in me.

What is it with cartoon-based children's games? For years, they could be counted on to be the direst examples of rote game design around; lazy attempts at profiteering off the powerful and undiscerning love that can only exist between a child and his favorite animated character.

Game Description: Animaniacs: The Great Edgar Hunt is crazy 3rd-person Platform gaming that brings the wonderful world of Animaniacs to life! Players guide the Warner brothers, Wakko and Yakko—and their sister, Dot—through 6 cartoon levels to locate the hidden Edgar trophies. Use each Animaniac's special abilities to accomplish your goal while exploring the weird, fun Animaniacs world.

Zooo is a "things switching places" sort of puzzler. Players must capture animals by lining up at least three of the same kind of creature—three lions, three elephants, etc. Lines can be either vertical or horizontal; they're formed by flipping two animals that are right next to each other. Anybody who's played Bejeweled knows this drill, but the game is no less fun for that.

Game Description: In Zooo you'll have to capture the escaped animals by lining and capturing 3 or more of them! This great puzzle game takes place on an 8x8 field, where your skills and reflexes will be put to the test. Features five different game modes.

Animaniacs: Lights, Camera, Action!, you are utter crap. This is not the kind of thing I say lightly. Animaniacs has been one of my favorite shows since junior high, and I was excited to see the Warner brothers—and the Warner sister—back out of their tower after all these years. I wasn't expecting greatness, but mediocrity would've been nice.
