Bucketball
This
is another game from the Casual Game Play site. I could spend all day there. The game seems simple enough. Bop
the little ball into the bucket. You get 20 levels to test your skills of aim and timing. Each level presents you with a certain number of
differently-colored buckets, and the same number of differently-colored balls. Your job is to get the right balls into the right buckets. The fewer
strokes it takes to complete a level, the higher your score. Easy? Riiiighht
The mouse controls everything. When you bring the pointer near a ball, a little arrow appears. Hold the mouse button to build up power, and release to fire the ball in the direction of the arrow. This control method feels comfortable and undemanding, which matches the general vibe of the game. There's no timer or official target score for any of the levels, so you're free to play with the physics and take as many shots as you want. If you'd rather go for the minimum number of shots and max out your score, you can restart a level at any time with no penalty.
Heck my favorite thing to do is to actually get the wrong ball in a bucket. There must be something wrong with me, but I get a kick out of watching a ball get spit out of a bucket. oops did I give too much away.
So head on over to Jay's Site. Just reading his review is reason enough.
