  • Games for the Casual Gamer: Puzzle Bobble

    Columns Columns by Danielle Symonds-Yemm on

    My review is going to be short this time. You know why? Because I'm in the presence of evil. Yep, evil is on my very cell phone. Which means that wherever I go, it will never leave me alone. Unless I hit the delete button, but you know evil—it will not allow you to do such a thing.
