Sometimes when you plan an online game you want blood and death and billion-decibel explosions, but sometimes all you want is a nice little relax. Boomshine definitely provides the latter.

All Boomshine requires you to do is click your mouse once each level and that's it. But it's what happens afterwards that makes Boomshine so special. When you click your mouse, you set off a slow explosion – and any floating balls that touch the explosion also explode, and any balls passing their explosions explode as well in a chain reaction style. And on and on until enough balls have exploded to get you to the next level. If the premise of Boomshine doesn't get you, the beautiful minimalist plink of the explosions will. Failing that, you can pretend that you're spreading a deadly disease through a packed city like an episode of 24 or something. Not that we did that, of course. Ahem…
