I vote Unblock It over Angry Birds!(especially since I don't have AB on my Glo) At least you can claim it's a superior mental exercise.(much harder claim to make with all the colorful graphics and sound on AB) Addictive! I went to level twenty on Easy in about an hour often tying the game or a move off the best score. Lots of fun. The reset button is your friend. It wouldn't hurt if they mentioned somewhere that you can only slide blocks along the longest axis when you first start playing, but it becomes obvious when you attempt to do otherwise. Fun. Reminds me of those golf tee puzzles or wood block puzzles that were once so popular.
A big hint for anyone who hasn't tried it. Work your way backwards through the puzzle by attempting to figure out how to get the closest piece to the one you must free out of the way and just keep crunching the alternatives. It's like the brute force method used by many chess programs. Gets a bit tricky remembering all the alternatives to back track through though. A lot of fun for something so simple.
