Windows 3 Game: Gecko Shuffle (1994) Platform Windows 3.x Released 1994 Pacing Meditative / Zen Interface Point and Select Genre Puzzle Description Gecko Shuffle is a simple game that tests one's reflexes. The player is presented with three tiles, two of which are empty and one of which has a gecko depicted on it. When the gecko is clicked, the three tiles are reversed and then re-arranged; the player then has to click on the tile which, in his opinion, is the one with the gecko. The tiles are then revealed again, and the player can see whether his guess was correct. A successful guess gives 10 points. The game can be played at one of the 10 levels - the higher the level, the faster the tiles move. There are two game modes: the "Single Level Shuffle", where the player chooses the level he wishes to play on, and has an opportunity to make 20 guesses (correct or not) before the game ends; and the "Progressive Level Shuffle", which is based on the same rules, but the level increases with each successful guess and decreases with each failure. After each guess, the player can see an instant replay of the tiles re-arranging, but in slow motion and with the tiles revealed. From Mobygames.com. Original Entry
