Light up five of the handlink's buttons so that all the surrounding values become zeroes. Each value states how many squares in its row/column should be lit up, and will change along with your pushes, so a bit of analysis should allow you to solve the puzzle well enough. You can Play Handlink in the Shoebox, under the Misc Games section.

Having some right issues with the cache, today.

The Shoebox is now using the "Server Worker" method of caching, instead of the older AppCache style. With any luck, you shouldn't be able to tell the difference, and everything will continue to work swimmingly. I'm not sure what the exact rule for cache-update-checks is, especially if you're playing with an "Add to Home Screen" kind of bookmark, but it appears to be doing a decent job of keeping up to date. Please do give it a try, and let me know how you get on with the update, reporting...

.. If only that was "Money!" and not "trying to update the cache for Shoebox"

Paint the grid one player at a time, painting 9 squares around your chosen point, if they're empty. The player that paints the last square is the winner. You can Play Obstruction in the Shoebox, under the One On One games section.

Move the blocks left and right to match up the colours and make them disappear. You can Play Vexed in the Shoebox in the Misc section.

Started to make a Shoebox game with a lot of holes in it, last night.

Can you manage to put your bubbles in order, before AL can? Take it in turns to move one of the two centre bubbles, and swap it with one of the bubbles in your row. Try to figure out the best method to get all the bubbles into numerical order. You can Play Sort Bubbles here, in the One on One section of the Shoebox.

Last week, Tobobobo picked out this game as a possible Shoebox addition, and .. I think it's probably something that could work. I think that'll be this week's Shoebox title. It seems simple enough, but deceptively so. A nice unusual game, fit for the box. If you've any games you'd like to see me tackle, be it Foldapuz, Shoebox or Browsercade, feel free to suggest it, and I'll see if I can work it into play. .. Unless it spirals into complex depths that become unmanageabl...

Build a bridge of words! Right to left, westwards, using standard "Crossword Game" rules, but staying within vertical rows. You can Play WestWords in the Shoebox, under Word Games.

Place all 40 cards (Ace to 10, all four suits) within the grid. Create "Jimps", matches between adjacent cards, to score points. Multiple Jimps score bonus points, and you can rack up combos by placing more multiples after each other. You can Play Jimper in the Shoebox, under Misc. I was tempted to add it to the Card Games section, but felt it was more Puzzle than Card, so it went into the Misc like Cardagain is.. Feel free to argue if you think that's wrong!!

A simple enough solitaire game. 13 piles are placed onto the table, with any Kings being pushed to the bottom of the pile. You can shuffle the cards around the table, one at a time, placing a card onto a card one-higher, as long as it is NOT of the same suit. eg, you can place a Nine of Diamonds on top of a Ten of Hearts, Clubs or Spades, but NOT onto a Ten of Diamonds. The four foundation piles work as standard, and must be increased from Ace to King in the same suit. Your task,...

Took AGES getting even simple movement working yesterday.

Build a tower from the bottom, up. Take turns placing girders, with the length defined by the roll of a dice. If you complete a level, you earn a point. The player with the most points, once the tower is complete, is the winner. You can Play Bottoms Up in the Group Games of the Shoebox.

Guide your counters towards the Goal squares. Be sure to light up all the squares along the way. You can Play Homepath in the Misc section of the Shoebox.

"Homepath" is seemingly working well enough, but today I'd like to try adding a few extra additions into the gameplay, to make the levels a little more complex.

I couldn't concentrate on the Pool game, today. I tried my hardest, but my mind was a-wandering.. Instead, then, I ended up making this.

I really need to knuckle down and get the Pool game a bit more playable.

Gather up the card into the Foundation spaces, in the usual Ace to King manner. The challenge here is that each of the "table" piles can only hold 3 cards. Move them around to reach the required cards for the Foundations, by shifting the topmost card onto an allowable space. Cards can be placed atop another card either one value above or below, of any suit. You can Play Shamrock Solitaire in the Card Games section of the Shoebox, in your Browser, on Desktop, Mobile or Tablet.

A simple dice rolling challenge. Roll the dice, and then decide if you want to roll again, totting up the scores into the Kitty as you go. If at any moment you wish to "Bank" what you've earned, play will move to the next player If you roll a One, you lose everything in the kitty. It's a simple risk/reward game, but I really enjoyed the game, especially in Party Mode against 3 AL players. You can Play Pig in the Shoebox under the Group games.

Idigidragon's getting a remake on Switch, this week.

In reply to my earlier thoughts on "blurred" backgrounds, Alan suggests.. Probably requires opengl wizardry. I need to study up on this a bit myself. And he's probably right..

The game is still on schedule. .. ... Just not the same schedule it was on, yesterday!

Find words using any available letter, and work your way up the pyramid until all the letters are gone. You can Play Word Pyramid in the Shoebox, under the Word Games section.

I took most of the day off, yesterday. Writing 4 games a week is harder than it sounds!!!

A strategic game of destruction! Move your piece to any adjacent tile. Next, REMOVE one of the tiles surrounding your opponent's piece. Players take it in turns until either player is stuck in a position where they can no longer move. You can Play Isolation in the Shoebox in the One On One section.
