By way of Penny Arcade,

There is a new grow? (http://www.eyezmaze.com/eyezblog_en/blog/2009/01/grow_tower.html)

16 is my max...It's kind of confusing in the beginning, but it starts to make sense after a while...

Okay so we were recording the show last night and I saw Tycho link to this. There's a point near the end of the show (should be posted up later) where I go silent...even after James is done talking, I'm still kind of out of it.

It's because of this damn game!!!

It took me around 10-15 times to beat the game. It's a lot of fun seeing all the different actions the pieces will make with different order choices.

When I hit the end, it had me giggling like a schoolgirl. It was a very nice diversion for a couple of minutes. :)

Yah, just completed it :)

Had a great art style to it that made me all warm and fuzzy inside.

Crap, now I notice there are a ton more of these "grow" games...

Fuck you all for beating this so quick...I swear I feel like I have gone through every combination with no resolve.

I got it on my third try, having played the other grow games certainly helps. I think grow cube (http://www.eyezmaze.com/grow/cube/) is my favorite.

finished it on my 3rd try... i think i just got lucky with my first random placements and saw which interacted best with the others

Okay...finally got it.

I feel stupid.

Finally beat this one after about a dozen or so attempts. The final chain reaction in Grow games is always very fun and rewarding. I love how many uses each item gets and how they all work together.

I was stuck for a while believing I had to have the bricks on top of the mountain in order to shoot the treasure chest with the rocket. Then I thought I had to have the bricks on top of the button so the robot would hit the button. Turns out it was neither of those but I was misled for a while.

GrowRPG remains my favorite, though.

Grow Cube is pretty fantastic. Took me quite a bit to actually get it to work...kept screwing up one part. So happy to see it completed though :)

The great thing about Grow games for me is that after a few months I'll have forgotten the exact order of the pieces so I can re-solve it.

Solved Tower, RPG and Cube today. My wife and our lodger hate me because they were trying to do Cube for ages before I even started and I beat them to it.

I finally got the cube one.

Cube one was my favourite by far...took me quite a while, but I loved the animations on it.

Still working on the island one, though :(

I really thought the RPG one was clever. Relatively easy, but fun.

I've always found GrowV3 to be the hardest. It's the red sphere with 10 different items. Just worked my way through it again, having forgotten entirely how it worked.

Wow, these are addicting.
