Collapse - This article is about Collapse, the puzzle game. For the book by Jared Diamond, see Collapse (book).
Collapse is a puzzle game published in 1999 by the software company GameHouse. Game play The gameplay is a mixture between SameGame and Tetris. on every N seconds (depending the level) a new line with colored bricks (usually 4 colors) appears from the bottom of the screen and moves the whole field up. By clicking on a group of 3 or more same-colored bricks, the whole group disappears, and the hole is filled first by the elements falling from above. If a whole column is cleared, the elements slide to the center of the field. In higher levels of the MSN version, 'bombs' appear, mixed among the bricks. The bombs are either black (in which case clicking on them causes the surrounding section of bricks to disappear), or are the color of one of the groups of bricks (in which case clicking on the bomb eliminates all bricks on the board that are the same color). Black bombs have the additional quality of serving as a bridge between brick of the same color - if two or more bricks of the same color are touching a bomb, then clicking one of those bricks has the same effect of clicking on a group of three or more bricks of the same color. Versions There is online version of the game, available on gaming portals as Games Yahoo and also native version for PC. Versions for PDAs and mobile phones are available too. References
